Functional Testing Demo Project

About the project

The project showcases the use of Selenium with Java and JUnit for performing functional tests on an <ul> element.

Website1

The website where the element is located is the https://oapen.org/ .

Web element under test

The web element tested was an <ul> element found on the landing page of the website:

OOP

To make full use of Java as a pure Object-Oriented language and, by extension, optimize code organization, a small class hierarchy was developed. Each subclass simulates a concrete user action.

Horizontal vs vertical testing

There are 4 test classes, each of which corresponds to a <li> sub-element of the <ul> element. Taking advantage of JUnit's ordering capabilities, the test classes are run according to a custom order (horizontal testing).

Ordering number <li> sub-element Test class
#1 'Subject' link SubjectLinkTest
#2 'Publisher' link PublisherLinkTest
#3 'Language' link LanguageLinkTest
#4 'Collections' link CollectionsLinkTest

Furthermore, each class contains test methods that correspond to a series of simulated steps per <li> sub-element. As in the case of the test classes, the test methods are run according to a custom order (vertical testing).
