### Introduction

Testing connections allows you to create tests for different clients or filesystems.

Alumio offers testing connections in separate modules:

- **HTTP Clients;**
- **SOAP Clients;**
- **Filesystems.**

### The “Testing connections” option

To start using the “Testing connections” option, use these steps to navigate the functionality:

1. Go to the HTTP/SOAP Clients or Filesystem, depending on what exactly should be tested;
2. Select the records you want to test on the Overview page or press the “Test connections” button at the top to test all existing connections on the page.

a. Configuration name - tested client or filesystem.  
b. Status - indicates current status during/after execution.  
3 statuses are used in the popup:
