Multifactor authentication (MFA)

Test MFA-protected logins without hacks

Modern applications rely on multi-factor authentication.

Your automated tests should not break because of it.

Test MFA-protected logins without hacks

DoesQA lets you generate real MFA tokens directly inside your automation tests, so protected login flows run reliably without manual intervention.

With the Set MFA Test Step, DoesQA can act as a 2FA provider within your tests.

  • Generate valid time-based one-time passwords

  • Store and reuse MFA secrets globally

  • Use MFA at any stage of any test

  • Apply the same setup across multiple flows

  • Guest users

  • Returning users without MFA

  • New users without MFA

  • Returning users with MFA

  • New users setting up MFA for the first time

  • Registering a new user

  • Setting up MFA

  • Capturing and storing the MFA secret

Use DoesQA as your MFA provider

This means your test users can behave exactly like real users, including those with MFA enabled.

Generating live tokens so you can log out and log back in

Test every user type in one flow

This allows complete coverage of real-world authentication scenarios without duplicating flows.

MFA setup often displays a secret or QR code. DoesQA supports both approaches:

Capture MFA secrets automatically

Use the Scan Test Step to read a QR code and extract the secret automatically

From there, DoesQA generates real tokens during execution.

OTP via email

In addition to authenticator-based MFA, DoesQA also supports one-time passwords delivered via email.

This allows you to automate email-based 2FA flows without leaving the platform.

Built for automation and manual testing

When reviewing test results, developers can generate a fresh MFA token directly from the result view to continue debugging without interruption.

Manual testers can log in as shared test users without passing authentication codes back and forth.

Secure, reliable, and realistic

MFA should increase confidence, not block automation.

DoesQA lets you test real authentication flows exactly as users experience them, while keeping your automation reliable and maintainable. To see how other tools handle this, read Katalon alternatives.
