Ether scan registration form

Table of Contents

The task

  • Create test scenarios for the registration form on Etherscan website
  • Explain what type of tools you would use to enable an automatic testing system for the task above and how they would be utilized
  • Create e2e browser tests that will cover all test scenarios

Description

Test scenarios are located in src/features/sign_up folder.

CAPTCHA is being ignored in test scenarios.

Current test coverage

  • Sign up form happy path flow
  • Negative test scenarios for fields: Username, Email Address, Confirm Email Address, Password, Confirm Password

In sign_up.feature there is an example of e2e test, which is step-by-step flow of the actual sign up flow for a new user.

Since given env is PROD, actual sign up is not possible to automate completely (due to CAPTCHA), so I've defined the steps after submitting the sign up form to only log the particular step.

Automation

Repository contains automation framework for automating test scenarios. I've used Playwright with Cucumber. Reason, Gherkin syntax is easy to read, applications desired behavior can be described in plain text, meaning it will be readable to technical and non-technical stuff. Also, it provides good project documentation overall.

Prerequisites

Executing tests

Hooks are defined in utils/hooks.ts file, at the start of every test browser is being initiated and new tab is opened that will navigate to the baseURL - in this case https://etherscan.io/register.

By default, tests will run in HEADFULL mode.

In After hook in utils/hooks.ts, there is a method that will take the screenshot in case test fails and save it in report/ folder.

Since Etherscan website is a PROD environment, due to CAPTCHA, running test in HEADLESS mode will not work at all. I've left screenshot of my try inside report/failed-test.png.

To run in HEADLESS mode, navigate to utils/hooks.ts file and change headless variable to true.

headless: true

To execute all tests, run:

npm run regression

Other scripts

To execute work-in-progress test, firstly add @wip above the desired test scenario and run:

npm run wip

To execute dry-run, run

npm run dry-run

To view the steps usage, run:

npm run features:usage

To view undefined steps, run:

npm run features:undefined

Possible Improvements

  • Refactor steps in .feature files to pass the variables dynamically so there is no need for defining separete step for each case
  • Creating Page Object Model with classes each page, e.g. SignUp page, SignIn page, Mailinator page
  • Define selectors and methods within classes, moving part of the logic from the steps. Leading to cleaner step files.
  • Add possibility to dynamicaly choose test execution mode headless or headfull
  • Create basic workflow for executing tests on GitHub via GitActions;
  • Add better reporter
