Run Diffie tests in your CircleCI pipeline
Add Diffie to your CircleCI workflow to run browser tests on every push. The integration is a shell script using curl and jq — no orbs or special dependencies required. Just add a job to your config.yml and tests run automatically.
In the Diffie dashboard, go to Settings → API Tokens to generate a token (DIFFIE_TOKEN). Then open the test suite you want to run and copy the Suite ID from the URL or settings page (DIFFIE_SUITE_ID).
In your CircleCI project settings, go to Environment Variables. Add DIFFIE_TOKEN and DIFFIE_SUITE_ID.
Add a Diffie test job that starts a suite run and polls for results.
