Running Tests

You can run the tests using Pytest: pytest

Testing Framework

Framework Overview

This project utilizes a testing framework based on the following technologies:

Pytest: A testing framework that makes it easy to write simple and scalable test cases.

Selenium: A powerful tool for controlling a web browser through the program.

Page Object Model (POM): A design pattern for creating well-structured test automation frameworks by encapsulating web page elements and their interactions in separate classes. Page Object Model (POM) The Page Object Model (POM) design pattern is used to create a structured and maintainable test automation framework. It encapsulates the web page elements and interactions in separate Python classes, making the code easy to understand and maintain.

In this project, you'll find POM classes for the login page, product page, and cart page, making it straightforward to interact with elements on these pages.

Pytest Features

Test Parameterization: Test scenarios are parameterized using Pytest fixtures, allowing for reusable and data-driven tests.

Explicit Waits: Explicit waits are implemented to ensure that the page loads and elements become visible and interactable before test actions are performed.

Error Handling: Exception handling is implemented to gracefully handle errors and avoid abrupt test failures.

Comprehensive Reporting: The project is configured to provide comprehensive test reports using Pytest reporting features, including the generation of JUnit XML reports.

GitHub Actions Workflow

This repository is configured with a GitHub Actions workflow for automated testing. The workflow runs tests whenever changes are pushed to the main branch.
