Automation Testing Project: E-commerce Web Application

1. Project Overview

● Project Name: E-commerce Web Application Automation Testing


● Objective: To develop a robust automation testing framework to ensure the
functionality, performance, and reliability of an e-commerce web application.
● Application Features:
○ User registration and login
○ Product search and filtering
○ Shopping cart and checkout process
○ Payment gateway integration
○ Order history and tracking
○ Responsive design for mobile and web

2. Tools and Technologies

● Programming Language: Python / Java / C# (depending on team expertise)


● Automation Framework: Selenium for web UI, Appium for mobile, or Playwright for
modern web apps
● Test Management: TestRail or Jira
● CI/CD Integration: Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, or GitHub Actions
● Version Control: Git (GitHub/Bitbucket)
● Reporting: Allure or Extent Reports
● Build Tool: Maven or Gradle (if Java is used)
● APIs Testing: Postman or REST Assured
● Performance Testing: JMeter or Gatling
● Database: MySQL or PostgreSQL for database verification

3. Automation Testing Scope

● Test Types:
○ Smoke Tests: Verify basic functionality (login, product search, etc.)
○ Functional Tests: Validate core functionalities like checkout
○ Regression Tests: Ensure updates don’t break existing features
○ Cross-browser Testing: Ensure compatibility on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and
Edge
○ API Testing: Verify backend service endpoints
○ Mobile Testing: Responsive design testing on different devices
● Browsers and Devices:
○ Web Browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
○ Mobile Devices: iPhone (iOS), Android Phones (Samsung, Pixel)

4. Automation Framework Design

● Framework Type: Hybrid Framework (combining data-driven, keyword-driven, and


modular frameworks)
● Key Components:
1. Test Data Management:
■ Maintain test data in CSV, JSON, or Excel files for reusability.
2. Page Object Model (POM):
■ Create separate classes for each page (e.g., LoginPage, CartPage).
3. Reusable Libraries:
■ Develop utility functions (e.g., wait handlers, screenshots, logging).
4. Test Scripts:
■ Write scripts for individual test cases using tools like Selenium.
5. Configuration Management:
■ Store browser, environment, and URL details in a configuration file.
6. Reporting:
■ Generate detailed test execution reports with screenshots for failed
cases.

5. Workflow

1. Requirement Analysis:
○ Understand requirements by collaborating with developers, BAs, and
stakeholders.
2. Test Plan Creation:
○ Outline scope, timelines, risks, and tools.
3. Framework Setup:
○ Install dependencies, configure tools, and design the automation framework.
4. Test Script Development:
○ Write automation scripts based on test cases.
5. Test Execution:
○ Run tests in local, staging, or production environments using CI/CD pipelines.
6. Defect Reporting:
○ Log defects in Jira (or similar) with proper screenshots and logs.
7. Regression and Maintenance:
○ Add scripts for new features and modify existing ones based on changes.

6. Deliverables

● Test Artifacts:
○ Test Plan Document
○ Automation Framework Design Document
○ Test Scripts and Test Data
○ Execution Reports
○ Defect Reports
● CI/CD Pipeline:
○ Fully integrated pipeline triggering automation tests for every code commit.
● Test Coverage:
○ Coverage reports to ensure all critical paths are tested.

7. Best Practices

● Use descriptive naming conventions for test cases and methods.


● Apply DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principles in the framework design.
● Implement error handling for unexpected conditions (timeouts, popups).
● Use version control effectively to track changes in test scripts.
● Maintain modular scripts for easier updates and scalability.
● Conduct regular code reviews to ensure quality and consistency.

8. Sample Test Cases

Here are examples of test cases that will be automated:

● Login Tests:
○ Verify successful login with valid credentials.
○ Validate error messages for invalid credentials.
● Product Search:
○ Verify search results are accurate based on keywords.
○ Validate filters (price range, category) are applied correctly.
● Checkout Process:
○ Verify items in the cart are carried through to checkout.
○ Test successful order placement with valid payment.
○ Validate error messages for invalid payment details.
