Test Protocol - GiftFlow/giftflow GitHub Wiki
- If you have been provided with a different URL use that one instead of testing directly on giftflow.org.
- These tests are to be done sequentially. If one of the tests fails (the expected result is not satisfied), notify the developers. They need to know how to reproduce the failure, so give them:
- Where in the test script the failure occurs
- Make a list of any specific actions you took outside of the scope of the test script (ie – the user name you specified)
- Take a screenshot or include other information you think necessarry
- While doing these tests, generally keep an eye out for things that seem strange even if they are not explicitly stated in the tests. Examples are: pages that are blank, error messages that appear in and around the page, text that seems misaligned or popping out of a box they should be in.
- The goal of this script is to have a procedure any non-developer can run that tests every button and function of the application. Developers should update this in accordance with new commits to the master branch.
- This script should be run entirely before pushing to the production site.
