Overview Automated testing plays a pivotal role in ensuring the dependability, functionality, and efficiency of the SDLMS (DeepThought Learning Management System) login process. This comprehensive documentation elucidates the meticulous testing approach, delineates test cases, discusses encountered challenges, and furnishes lucid instructions for executing the tests through the TestCafe framework. Introduction In the continuum of improvement, introspection holds paramount significance. This documentation immerses itself in the realm of automated testing, employing TestCafe, to scrutinize the SDLMS login process. The practice of automated testing not only unveils insights into system behavior but also identifies latent issues, guaranteeing an unblemished user experience.
Testing Approach The testing methodology adopts an automated approach, harnessing the prowess of TestCafe, to script interactions mirroring user actions during the login process. This rigorous validation ensures the veracity of the login functionality, preemptively identifying and mitigating potential anomalies during the development lifecycle.
Test Cases Valid Login Input a valid username and password. Initiate login by clicking the login button. Validate successful login by confirming the presence of the dashboard logo. Invalid Login Input an invalid username and password. Initiate login by clicking the login button. Confirm the display of an error alert, featuring a dismissal button. Challenges Faced The testing journey was unimpeded by significant challenges. The TestCafe framework adeptly facilitated the seamless automation of login tests, demonstrating robustness and efficiency.
Running Tests To execute the automated tests, meticulously follow these steps:
