What is Katalon Studio?

Freeware tool for easy creation of automated web and mobile testing, with little to no programming required

See here for official About page

See here for more details from QA Testing Tools

What exactly is this?

A BASIC Katalon Studio Project covering the following:

• Automating the purchase of an item from automationpractice.com including signing up for an account

• Calculating that the prices including shipping are correct

• Use of custom keyword to generate random email

• Basic scripting to perform some mathematics and try and catches

• Test Objects required to perform the test cases

Specifically covering 2 scenarios that were requested from a fellow tester as proof of automation ability prior to being offered a job.

Four scenarios in total were requested:

Scenarios requested

1.   Positive test : add a product to check out, register as new customer and complete the checkout
   

2.   Positive test : add a product to check out, login as existing customer and complete the checkout
   

3.   Negative Test :  add a product to check out, try to login and complete password recovery
   

4.   When you do test 1 can you also confirm the total is calculated correctly
   

Scenario 1 runs all the way through from clicking to add an item to shopping cart through registration and on to confirmation of order.

Scenario 2 has been left out purposefully for others to figure out using what is given in the scenario 1 test case, more test objects will need creating.

Scenario 3 that was requested is actually impossible as the webpage given doesn`t send out recovery emails?

Scenario 4 will check the price of the item at the point it was added to the cart, against the price when in the cart and that the total cost including shipping is correct, a basic output is printed to the console.
