Testing
**API Testing** ensures that APIs work as expected by verifying responses, status
codes, and payloads. The Robot Framework is a generic test automation framework
that can be used for API testing with libraries like `RequestsLibrary`.
**Setup:**
1. Install Robot Framework and the RequestsLibrary:
```bash
pip install robotframework
pip install robotframework-requests
```
**Example:**
Create a file named `api_test.robot`:
```robot
*** Settings ***
Library RequestsLibrary
**UI/UX Testing** ensures that the user interface and experience meet design
specifications and user expectations.
**Example Script:**
```python
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='path/to/chromedriver')
driver.get('https://example.com')
# Verify UI elements
assert driver.find_element(By.ID, 'header').is_displayed()
assert driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'submit-button').text == 'Submit'
# Close browser
driver.quit()
```
**Mobile Application Testing** involves testing mobile apps to ensure they function
correctly on various devices.
**Setup:**
1. Install Appium and Appium-Python-Client:
```bash
pip install Appium-Python-Client
```
**Example Script:**
```python
from appium import webdriver
# Desired capabilities
caps = {
'platformName': 'Android',
'deviceName': 'emulator',
'app': 'path/to/app.apk'
}
**Example Script:**
```python
import unittest
class TestMathFunctions(unittest.TestCase):
def test_add(self):
self.assertEqual(add(3, 4), 7)
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
```
**Example Script:**
```robot
*** Settings ***
Library SeleniumLibrary
**Setup:**
1. Install Locust:
```bash
pip install locust
```
**Example Script:**
```python
from locust import HttpUser, TaskSet, task, between
class UserBehavior(TaskSet):
@task
def get_home(self):
self.client.get("/")
class WebsiteUser(HttpUser):
tasks = [UserBehavior]
wait_time = between(1, 5)
if __name__ == "__main__":
import os
os.system('locust -f performance_test.py')
```
### Summary
- **API Testing**: Validates API responses and status codes using Robot Framework.
- **UI/UX Testing**: Ensures UI elements and user interactions work as expected
with Selenium.
- **Mobile Application Testing**: Verifies mobile app functionality using Appium.
- **Unit Testing**: Tests individual functions or components with Python's
`unittest`.
- **Functional Testing**: Confirms software features work as intended using Robot
Framework.
- **Performance Testing**: Measures application performance under load using
Locust.
Each type of testing plays a vital role in ensuring the overall quality and
reliability of the software. By using appropriate tools and frameworks, you can
automate and streamline the testing process effectively.
