Automated Testing Project

This project contains a suite of automated tests designed for end-to-end testing of a web application. The framework is built with Java, utilizes Maven for dependency management, Selenium for browser automation, and JUnit 5 for test execution. Additionally, the project is fully Dockerized, enabling easy and consistent test execution across environments.

Project Overview

This project automates the testing of core functionalities for a web application, such as:

• User Authentication: Login/logout with valid and invalid credentials.
• Navigation: Validation of menus, navigation bars, and page transitions.
• Form Interactions: Filling out and submitting forms.
• Feature Verification: Ensuring key functionalities work as intended.

System Under Test (SUT): The application under test is hosted at https://www.saucedemo.com/.

Prerequisites

Before running the tests, ensure the following are installed:

1. Java Development Kit (JDK) (version 11 or later)
2. Maven (version 3.6.0 or later)
3. WebDriver (e.g., ChromeDriver) – Ensure the WebDriver version matches your browser version.

Optional:

• Docker: Required if running tests in a containerized environment.
• Integrated Development Environment (IDE): IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse for viewing or modifying test code.

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

   git clone https://github.com/CodecoolGlobal/test-automation-webshop-in-beta-general-qutasi.git
   cd test-automation-webshop-in-beta-general-qutasi
   

2. Build and run the tests using Docker Compose

   docker-compose up --build
   

---

Running the Tests

Using Maven

To execute all tests:

mvn clean test

To run specific test classes or methods:

mvn -Dtest=TestClassName#methodName test

Using Docker

docker-compose up 

The Docker container will automatically set up the environment, execute the tests, and save reports to /target inside the container.

---

Test Structure

The project follows the Page Object Model (POM) design pattern:

• Pages: Located in src/test/java/com/codecool/models
  • Contains reusable components representing application pages.
• Tests: Located in src/test/java/com/codecool/test
  • Includes test cases for verifying application functionality.

---

Test Reports

After executing the tests, reports will be available in the following directory:

/target/surefire-reports/

These reports provide detailed information about passed, failed, or skipped tests.

---

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the WebDriver version matches your browser version.
• If using Docker, verify that Docker is installed and running.
• Check for missing dependencies or errors in the Maven build logs.
• Update WebDriver or browser versions if compatibility issues arise.
