DoesQA includes test inboxes in the product. You do not need a separate mail testing service for journeys such as registration, password reset, or magic-link login.

Two inbox types

  • Test Case inbox — use $testEmail when the message belongs to one test. Each Test Case Run gets its own address, so parallel tests do not share mail.
  • Account inbox — use $accountEmail when multiple tests should share a single mailbox.

Typical Flow

  1. Enter $testEmail in the application email field.
  2. Trigger the message (register, reset, send magic link).
  3. Add Wait for email, then Open email.
  4. Click links or run checks on the open message, then Close inbox.

Open Mail in the left navigation to inspect inboxes while you build, or after a Run to review messages.

For step-by-step guides, see Email testing in DoesQA, Registration and verification, Forgotten password, and Passwordless login.

If a message does not arrive, see My test email isn't arriving.
