🛠️ Automated Web Test for Intervue.io - Selenium with Python

This repository contains an automated web test using Selenium and Python to validate the login functionality of Intervue.io.

The script:

• Opens Intervue.io
• Navigates to the login page
• Attempts login with provided credentials
• Captures a screenshot if the login fails
• Closes the browser after execution

This project is designed for QA automation testing, ensuring the login mechanism functions as expected.

🚀 Setup & Installation

1️⃣ Clone This Repository

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/intervue-qa-test.git
cd intervue-qa-test

2️⃣ Install Dependencies

Ensure you have Python installed, then run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3️⃣ Install WebDriver (Chrome)

Selenium requires a WebDriver to automate the browser.

• Download ChromeDriver: Download Here
• Place it in the project directory OR add it to your system PATH

🔹 Want to use Edge or Firefox? Install the respective WebDriver:

• Edge: Microsoft Edge WebDriver
• Firefox: GeckoDriver

---

▶️ Run the Script

Execute the script using:

python test_intervue.py

💡 Example with Arguments

python test_intervue.py --email test@example.com --password wrongpassword

---

📌 Code Breakdown & Explanation

🔹 1. Initializing the WebDriver

if browser.lower() == "chrome":
    self.driver = webdriver.Chrome()
elif browser.lower() == "firefox":
    self.driver = webdriver.Firefox()
elif browser.lower() == "edge":
    self.driver = webdriver.Edge()
else:
    raise ValueError(f"Unsupported browser: {browser}")

📌 Why?

• This ensures flexibility by allowing different browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge).
• If an unsupported browser is passed, an error is raised.

---

🔹 2. Opening the Website

def open_website(self):
    self.driver.get("https://www.intervue.io")
    print("Website opened successfully")

📌 Why?

• This function loads the Intervue.io website using Selenium's get() method.

---

🔹 3. Navigating to Login Page

def navigate_to_login(self):
    login_button = WebDriverWait(self.driver, 10).until(
        EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(), 'Login') or contains(@class, 'login')]"))
    )
    login_button.click()
    print("Navigated to login page")

📌 Why?

• Uses Explicit Wait to ensure the login button is clickable before clicking.
• Uses XPath selectors to dynamically locate the login button.

---

🔹 4. Attempting Login

email_field = self.driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@type='email']")
password_field = self.driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@type='password']")
submit_button = self.driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//button[@type='submit']")

📌 Why?

• Locates email and password fields dynamically using XPath.
• Uses send_keys() to input credentials.

---

🔹 5. Capturing Screenshot on Failure

def take_screenshot(self, filename):
    self.driver.save_screenshot(filename)
    print(f"Screenshot saved as {filename}")

📌 Why?

• If login fails, the script captures the current screen state and saves it as an image for debugging.

📌 Example Screenshot File:

📂 intervue-qa-test/
   ├── login_button_not_found_20250301-091259.png  👈 Saved screenshot of failed login

---

📸 Screenshot Handling

🔹 The script saves screenshots in the screenshots/ directory with a timestamped filename:

login_failed_20250228-153000.png

🔹 This helps QA teams analyze why the login failed.

---

🔧 Customization

🔹 Modify Login Credentials
Edit test_intervue.py and update:

test_email = "your-email@example.com"
test_password = "your-password"

🔹 Use a Different Browser
Change "chrome" to "firefox" or "edge" in:

test = IntervueTest(browser="chrome")

---

❌ Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
WebDriverNotFoundException	Ensure ChromeDriver is installed and in the system PATH.
ElementNotFoundException	The website structure might have changed. Update XPath selectors in test_intervue.py.
TimeoutException	Increase wait times using WebDriverWait(driver, 15) if the website is slow.

🚀 Happy Testing!
