Botium Connector for Pandorabots

This is a Botium connector for testing your Pandorabots chatbot.

How it works

Botium connects to your Pandorabots chatbot with the Talk-to-bot-API

It can be used as any other Botium connector with all Botium Stack components:

• Botium CLI
• Botium Bindings
• Botium Box

Requirements

• Node.js and NPM
• a Pandorabots bot
• a project directory on your workstation to hold test cases and Botium configuration

Install Botium and Pandorabots Connector

When using Botium CLI:

> npm install -g botium-cli
> npm install -g botium-connector-pandorabots

Connecting Pandorabots chatbot to Botium

Setting up Pandorabots

All you need is the public Bot key

Setting up Botium
