Test Plan Template

What is Test Plan

It is our official document which will decide  what we are going to test, when we will test and how we are going to test the in-scope requirements.
BY ISTQB Defination 
Test plan: A document describing the scope, approach, resources and schedule of intended test activities. It identifies amongst others test items, the features to be tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, degree of tester independence, the test environment, the test design techniques and entry and exit criteria to be used, and the rationale for their choice,and any risks requiring contingency planning.

    Basically Test plan will be prepare by Testing Lead. Tester 
   will just gothrough the document and write the testcases and 
 executes.

1.Objectives and Scope:

This document provides a high level view of the type of test that is scheduled to be carried out and the features that will and will not be tested.

The objective of this document is to test the functionality of the Facebook Application.(Write your Application Name)

2       Features to be tested

FaceBook - Release 1:

The features which are to be tested, are:

1.    LoginPage

2.    Home Page

(Write Modules According to Your Application)

2.1      Features not to be Tested

3       Approach

In Approch You can write which model You are Going to follow.

Agile Methodology with scrum.

3.1 Types of Testing

This document provides different types of testing for Facebook Application.

1.    Static Testing

This testing does not need computer as the testing of program is done without executing the program. For example:  reviewing, walk through, inspection of the documents

2.  Dynamic Testing

a)Smoke Testing

b)Functional Testing

c)Retesting and Regression Testing

d)E2E Testing

e)Integration Testing
f)UAT

The testing will initiate with the review of the user requirement documents.

The first type of tests to be carried out will be Smoke and functional testing to determine that each of the individual features perform the functions for which they have been specified. After this a full set of end-to-end test scenarios will be identified once all the features have been delivered and tested, for this a set of e2e scripts would be produced which will seek to exercise the various workflow scenarios specified. This will be followed by system integration testing and UAT/CAT

                                      

Smoke Testing:

Smoke testing covers most of the major functions of the software. The result of this test is used to decide whether to proceed with further testing. If the smoke test passes, go ahead with further testing.

Functional Testing:

Functionality testing will be performed for all the functionalities of the application which will covers all the screens including inputs and outputs fields, buttons graphics and all the navigational flow between the screens.

 Regression Testing

Regression testing will be performed once a defect has been fixed and also if there any enhancements. The scope of this testing will depend on the nature of the defect fixed, but will include at least a re-run of the test where the defect was first identified and, any tests required to get the system into the state at which the problem was identified.

End-2-End Testing

A full end-2-end test will be carried to verify the flow of the process and to exercise all specified work flow route.

UAT/CAT Testing

User Acceptance/Customer Acceptance Testing phase will be performed to ensure that all the functionality scheduled for  delivery meets the business requirements.

Test Case Preparation

The test cases will be generated using JIRA,TFS,QC(Test Management Tool) and also in the excel sheet by the QA team lead. Requirement Traceability Matrix(RTM) will also be generated to make sure that all the requirements are covered 100%

Test Execution

The tester will carry out the execution based on the availability of the functionality and adequate release notes from the development team. Entry criteria for the system test stage are described below.

The Test Results will be updated as Passed, Failed, or Not Completed and a test completion test summary report will be produced at the end by the QA team lead.

Bug Life Cycle and Reporting

All bugs found during the testing phase will be reported using the defect tracking tool JIRA,TFS,QC(Test Managemet Tool) The tester will assign the defect to the development team. Once the developer fixes the defect, the status of the defect is changed to Awaiting QA. The tester will then retest the defect in the latest build available and change the status of the defect to Done/Failed QA accordingly.

3.2 Entry Criteria

Entry criterion is used to determine when a given test activity should start. It also includes the beginning of a level of testing, when test design or when test execution is ready to start.

• Test enviornment are ready to use like  browser (if web application), Tablets or Devicesif(Mobile Application)
• Test tools installed are ready to use
• Test data is available 

3.3      Exit criteria
    All entry criteria met.
    Test Summary Report has been produced, reviewed and approved by the Delivery Manager.

     All Critical, High and Medium priority defects have been retested and closed.

 3.4 Item Pass/Fail Criteria

  Specify the criteria that will be used to determine whether each test item (software/product) has passed or failed testing.

A test will be considered passed if the actions described in the test meet the ‘expected output’ for all steps described in the test case.

 If the output is not as expected, it will be reported and investigated to determine where the problem lies. 

3.5 Suspension Criteria and Resumption Requirements

Testing may be suspended under the following circumstances: -

• A discrepancy between the information contained in the Requirements, the Work Flow diagrams and the software delivered.

• The delivered functionality is not functioning well enough for the tests to be meaningful

• A defect is found in the software, which means that further testing is impossible

• A defect is found in the software which affects further test cases, or renders them inoperable

The following activities must be carried out on resumption of testing: -

• Checks must be carried out on any corrections which have been made, to ensure that the corrective action does not affect the rest of the system (Regression)

• Unless the tester is absolutely certain about the impact of a change, then the entire Test will be re-run 

• New test cases may have to be written to test the changes

• The system must be restored to a known stable state before testing commences

3.6 Test Deliverables:

List test deliverables, and links to them if available, including the following:

Test Plan (this document itself)

Test Cases

Test Scripts

Defect/Enhancement Logs

Test Reports

4.Test Enviornment 

Specify the properties of test environment: hardware, software, network etc.
List any testing or related tools like Selenium, qtp,Sahi

5       Test Data

All test data identified will be specified in a separate document, i.e.Test Data Specification document.

6      Test tools

Test management tool JIRA,TFS,QC will be used during this project  for all Test Cases.

JIRA will be used for defect reporting and management.

Selenium  and Qtp is also introduced for Automation testing which will be used if the time permits.    

7       Responsibilities

1.      The preparation and execution of the testing will be carried out by the Quality Analyst Test Team
2.       The development team will provide the environment specification
3.  The Business Analyst team will provide with all the user stories and use cases.
4.  Quality Analyst will review all test products (specifications, reports, etc.).

8    Resource

QA test analysts will carry out the test preparation phase.

QA Team Lead – DDM,

QA Test Analyst – Ritika

 9.     Schedule

The test cases to be executed would have been identified from the relevant use case specification in this project it is from the user stories created in JIRA,

10.Test Estimation    

Test Estimation is like How many user stories we have.Based on user stories how many test cases we can write.How many total test script we can write.Its like an estimation of whole project.

11.Risk  and Contignious

12   Defect Management/ Problem Severity 

All problems found during the testing phases will be logged uing JIRA,  each problem will be assigned a severity by the QA team; the classification of defect reporting is given in the table below.  The delivery manager will make the final decision on severity classifications in the event that there are any disagreements.  The developers shall also use these severity definitions for problems that they identify during their Unit testing.

Severity 

1 Critical – the system is broken and cannot be used, major functionality is impaired, or there is data loss. There are no workarounds. Problems are so severe that the timescales cannot be met. Testing may need to be suspended and the problem resolved.

2 Major - the fault renders several system elements unusable, or affects one or more system elements. Workarounds exist which may be unacceptable to the customer. Problems that will jeopardise the launch unless corrected.

3 Medium - the fault affects system elements that are not key to the overall functionality of the system.   The system continues to produce correct results and data is not affected. Acceptable workaround may exist.

4 Low/Trivial – this fault barely affects the quality of a system and will only be fixed if time permits.

What is Maven

If we have to test any web application using  Selenium everytime we need to download jar files from http://docs.seleniumhq.org/download/ and configure into eclipse.If we need test reports or any jar files we first download and add into in our Project.But maven has solved this problem for us By using Maven we just have to add dependecies in Pom.xml files and it will downloaded all the Jar files from Server.
What is Maven
Maven – a build automation tool which is distributed under Apache Software Foundation.
What is pom.xml file.
Its the core of maven.If we need any jar files in our projects we just need to add dependencies of those jar files in Pom.xml.When maven runs it will download all the jar files from apache server.
For reference you can use this http://docs.seleniumhq.org/download/maven.jsp
If you need any jar file like poi jar or Selenium jar files  files you just need to add dependencies in POM.XML File.It will download all the jars from server.

This is pom.xml File.If you will use Maven You will get this in your project.

How to run your Script on Multiple Browsers In Selenium

Now a Days  it has now become crucial to test web applications on multiple browsers. On different browsers, client components like Javascript, AJAX requests, Applets, Flash, Flex etc.applications on multiple browsers. Also for different browsers you may have different handling on how requests are processed on server side based on the user-agent received from client browser. So just testing your web application on single web browser is not enough. You need to make sure that your web application works fine across multiple browser.So here I will tell you how to test a web application using selenium on multiple Browser.

Four simple steps you need to follow:

Step 1: Create your Script. Using TestNG annotations. Define parameters (using @Parameters) for taking input value i.e, which browser should be used for Running the Test

Step 2: Create a TestNG XML for running your script

Step 3: Configure the TestNG XML for passing parameters i.e, to tell which browser should be used for Running the Test

Step 4: Run the TestNG XML which can pass the appropriate browser name to the Script such that the Test Case is executed in a specified browser

Parallel Test in Selenium

Create a TestNG XML for running your test. Configure the TestNG XML for passing parameters 

This is the Testng.xml.By this you can test you application on multiple browser mention in testng.xml

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">

<suite name="Myparalleltest" verbose="1" parallel="tests" thread-count="2">

<test name="chrometest">

<parameter name = "browser" value ="chrome"/>

    <classes>

        <class name="paralleltest.CrossBrowsertest"></class>  cop

    </classes>

</test>

<test name="firefoxtest">

<parameter name = "browser" value ="firefox"/>

    <classes>

        <class name="paralleltest.CrossBrowsertest"></class>  

    </classes>

</test>

<test name="internetexplorertest">

<parameter name = "browser" value ="ie"/>

    <classes>

        <class name="paralleltest.CrossBrowsertest"></class>  

    </classes>

</test>

</suite>

//You need to add a annotation in you java class.By using @Parameters("browser") you can run your test on multiple browser.

Create a ‘New Class’ file and refer the name to the actual page from the test object, by right click on the above created Package and select New > Class. In our case it as CrossBrowsertest

package paralleltest;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Parameters;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class CrossBrowsertest {
WebDriver driver;
@Parameters("browser")
@BeforeTest
public void openBrowser(String browser){
if(browser.equals("chrome")){
//If browser is equal to chrome
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\Chromepth\\ChromeDriver.exe");
      driver =  new ChromeDriver();
}else if(browser.equals("firefox")){
//If browser is equal to firefox
driver = new FirefoxDriver();  
}
else if(browser.equals("ie")){
//If browser is equal to ie System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver","C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\ie32bit\\IEDriverServer.exe");
           driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
           driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}}
@Test
   public void doLogin() throws InterruptedException{
       driver.get("http://gmail.com");
       //Open url
       driver.findElement(By.id("Email")).sendKeys("selemiumgyan");
       //Enter email id
       driver.findElement(By.id("Passwd")).sendKeys("password");
    //   Enter password

How to test menus/Submenus using action class(Mouse hovering in Webdriver)

Many of the times we need to test Menus and Submenus in Selenium.

Selenium WebDriver has Advanced User Interactions API (Actions class) to perform this kind of advanced user interactions for rich applications.We can use Actions class and It different methods like moveToElement, dragAndDrop, clickAndHold.These all actions are called Mouse Hover action in Selenium Webdriver.

So Where to use these mouse hovering action.

Whenever you are Testing Menus/Submenus of a Website and you find some hidden elements/getting exception like Element is not currently visible and so may not be interacted with

At that time you need to perform mouse hovering

How to find that Webelement is Hidden.By this link you can find out element is hidden o not.
How to do Mouse Hover in SeleniumWebDriver
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
public class TestingSubmenu {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        driver.get("http://www.neogenomics.com/solutions-overview.htm");
    Boolean submenu =     driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0_m2']/span")).isDisplayed();
       System.out.println(submenu);
//If this method returns true then it is visible element and if returns False then it is hidden element.
     WebElement Menu = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0']/img"));
       WebElement Submenu = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0_m2']/span"));      
       if(submenu==false){
      //Use of Action class  
       Actions builder = new Actions(driver);
       builder.moveToElement(Menu).build().perform();
//Move your mouse on Testing Services 
       driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0_m2']/span")).click();
       Submenu.click();
//Click on Testspotlight

[SeleniumWebDriver] No Such Element element Exception

Many of the Time Selenium users get this Problem

org.openqa.selenium.ElementNotVisibleException: Element is not currently visible and so may not be interacted with

At that time first you need to Check if that elements is Present or Not on which you want to click or Perform any action

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class TestingSubmenu {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        driver.get("http://www.neogenomics.com/solutions-overview.htm");
//Go to that website
        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0_m2']/span")).click();
//Find xpath and click
After running this code you will get this Exception Element not visible.
Solution for this 
First You need to check whether that element is Present or Not
By using this is Displayed function in Selenium WebDriver You can find element is Present or not
If that element returns true then you can perform action on it.If it returns false then it means it is a hidden element.So you need to use Mouse Hover on that element.

//Here is the code
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class TestingSubmenu {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        driver.get("http://www.neogenomics.com/solutions-overview.htm");
    Boolean submenu =     driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_Header1_HorizontalNavigation1_Menu_m0_m2']/span")).isDisplayed();
       System.out.println(submenu);

How to Download file in Selenium webdriver

How to download file in Selenium 

Many times you need to download a file like MS Excel file, MS Word File, Zip file, PDF file, CSV file, Text file, etc.So we need to follow some steps. Manually when we click on link to download file, It will show us dialogue to save file.

Generally this dialog box is in Firefox Browser.Manually just we have to click on save file and then file will be download on particular location.
But How Selenium Webdriver works
Selenium Webdriver do not have any feature to handle this save file dialogue.But Selenium can handle this dialog box and we can download  any file Webdriver's has Inbuilt class FirefoxProfile and some methods.By using some methods of FirefoxProfile we can download file.

Firefox profile methods

Before downloading a file in Firefox browser we should know MIME type of that file.Generally we use Mime type here 
//profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk","SpecifyMIME TYPE HERE");
If file is of pdf file then write MIME Type is application/pdf
If you have any file first find out MIME type of your file from here.Even you can google for your MIME TYPE if you don't find here.
"text/plain;" //MIME types Of text File.

    "text/csv"); //MIME types Of CSV File.
Here is the code for Download File 
package demodownloadfile;
import java.io.File;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;

public class Downloading_File {
public static void main(String[] args) {
       //Create firefox profile
   FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile(); 
   profile.setPreference("browser.download.folderList", 2);    
 //profile.setPreference("browser.download.dir","Specify your directory path here"); 
   profile.setPreference("browser.download.dir","E:\\downloadfile");    
     //Set path where you want to download file 
    profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "application/msword,application/x-rar-compressed,application/octet-stream,application/csv,text/csv");
//Here i have explained some MIME type 
   WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);
   driver.get("http://www.winzip.com/landing/open-rar-file.html");
 //Go to url
   driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='downloadlink']/img")).click(); 
  //click on file link and download file  

}}
//Now your File has been Downloaded
