Test Overview

This test simulates a simple Agile testing cycle where a tester verifies a new feature in a web application. It checks that the feature loads correctly and that a key button is clickable, reflecting continuous testing in Agile.

Test Code - Selenium with unittest

Testing Fundamentals

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import unittest

class AgileFeatureTest(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.driver = webdriver.Chrome()
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(5)

    def test_feature_button_clickable(self):
        driver = self.driver
        driver.get('https://example.com/new-feature')

        # Wait until the feature header is visible
        header = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
            EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'h1.feature-title'))
        )
        self.assertEqual(header.text, 'New Feature')

        # Find the action button and check if clickable
        button = driver.find_element(By.ID, 'start-feature-btn')
        self.assertTrue(button.is_enabled())

        # Click the button
        button.click()

        # Verify the next page or modal appears
        modal = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
            EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, 'feature-modal'))
        )
        self.assertTrue(modal.is_displayed())

    def tearDown(self):
        self.driver.quit()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()

Execution Trace - 7 Steps

Step	Action	System State	Assertion	Result
1	Test starts and Chrome browser opens	Browser window is open and ready	—	PASS
2	Navigates to 'https://example.com/new-feature'	Page with new feature loads	—	PASS
3	Waits until the feature header with CSS selector 'h1.feature-title' is visible	Header element is visible on the page	Header text equals 'New Feature'	PASS
4	Finds the button with ID 'start-feature-btn'	Button element is present in the DOM	Button is enabled (clickable)	PASS
5	Clicks the 'start-feature-btn' button	Page reacts to button click, modal or next page loads	—	PASS
6	Waits until the modal with ID 'feature-modal' is visible	Modal dialog is displayed on screen	Modal is displayed	PASS
7	Test ends and browser closes	Browser window is closed	—	PASS

Failure Scenario

Failing Condition: The button with ID 'start-feature-btn' is not found or not enabled

Execution Trace Quiz - 3 Questions

Test your understanding

What does the test verify after loading the new feature page?

AThe browser title is 'Home'

BThe header text is 'New Feature'

CThe URL contains 'login'

DThe footer is visible

Key Result

In Agile testing, continuous verification of small features with quick feedback is key. Using explicit waits ensures tests check elements only when ready, reducing flaky failures.
