Test Automation Example

This test automation example uses the UITAF open-source framework to perform UI testing on the Vehicle Insurance Quote minimalistic application located at http://uitaf.org/test/. The test is executed using the Chrome browser and is supported only by Java 8.

Prerequisites

Before running the test, ensure that the following software is installed on the target machine:

1. JDK Version 8: Ensure that Java 8 is installed, as the test is only supported by this version.
2. Git: Needed to clone the project repository.
3. Chrome Browser: Ensure Chrome browser is installed on the machine where the test will run.
4. IntelliJ IDEA (Optional): You can use IntelliJ to open and work with the project as a Maven project.

Setup and Execution

To build and execute the test automation solution, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

   • Open a terminal and run the following command to clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/braimanm/test-lab-example.git

2. Navigate to the Project Folder:

   • Change the directory to the project folder:

   cd test-lab-example

3. Build the Solution:

   • Execute the following command to build the solution:
   For Linux/macOS:

   ./mvnw clean package
   For Windows:

   mvnw.cmd clean package

4. Execute the Solution:

   • After the build is complete, execute the solution by running:

    java -jar target/example.jar
   • This command will start the test execution.

Test Execution Details

• The test will launch five instances of the Chrome browser and run five different test cases in parallel.
• Upon completion of the test execution, a detailed report with the results will be automatically launched in your default web browser.

info

This example demonstrates how to set up, build, and execute a test automation project using UITAF to test a web application. UITAF also introduces parallel execution of tests across multiple browser instances, which helps to reduce overall execution time and quickly validate the application under test.
