Automated workflow test runner with Google Drive, Sheets & ClickUp result logging

Description

This workflow acts as a CI/CD-style test harness for validating other n8n workflows. It executes a target workflow (here: Archive Payment Receipts), evaluates pass/fail outcomes, and generates structured reports. Results are automatically archived to Google Drive, logged in Google Sheets, and synced with ClickUp for visibility. Both success and failure scenarios are handled with standardized formatting.

What This Template Does (Step-by-Step)

1. ⚡ Manual Trigger – Start the test run manually.
2. ▶️ Execute Target Workflow Under Test – Calls the specified workflow (Archive Payment Receipts) and captures its output, even if it errors.
3. ✅ Test Result Evaluation (If Node) – Checks if the output contains errors.

• Pass Path → success formatting + archival.
• Fail Path → failure formatting + logging.
• 📄 Format Success Test Result (Set Node) – Creates a structured result object with:
• Status: ✅ Passed
• Workflow Name
• Timestamp
• 📄 Format Failed Test Result (Set Node) – Same as above, but with ❌ Failed status.
• 📝 Generate Success/Failure Report Text (Code Node) – Converts structured data into a human-readable report string.
• 📦 Convert Report to Text File – Transforms the text into a .txt file for archiving.
• ☁️ Archive Reports to Google Drive – Saves .txt files (success/failure) into the resume store folder with timestamped filenames.
• ✏️ Update ClickUp Task (Success/Failure) – Posts results directly into a ClickUp task for visibility.
• 📊 Log Error Details to Error Tracking Sheet (Google Sheets) – Appends raw error objects to an error log sheet for debugging and trend analysis.

Prerequisites

• Target workflow to test (e.g., Archive Payment Receipts)
