Test Code - Selenium with Python unittest

Execution Trace - 7 Steps

Step	Action	System State	Assertion	Result
1	Test starts and opens Chrome browser	Browser window opens with blank page	-	PASS
2	Navigates to 'https://example.com/automation-frameworks'	Page loads with framework options container visible	-	PASS
3	Waits up to 10 seconds for element with ID 'framework-options' to be present	Element found and visible on page	Presence of main container verified	PASS
4	Finds list item containing text 'Data-Driven'	Data-Driven option visible in list	Data-Driven option is displayed	PASS
5	Finds list item containing text 'Keyword-Driven'	Keyword-Driven option visible in list	Keyword-Driven option is displayed	PASS
6	Finds list item containing text 'Hybrid'	Hybrid option visible in list	Hybrid option is displayed	PASS
7	Test ends and browser closes	Browser window closed	-	PASS

Failure Scenario

Failing Condition: One or more framework options are missing or not visible on the page

Execution Trace Quiz - 3 Questions

What does the test verify after loading the page?

A That the page title contains 'Automation'

B Presence of Data-Driven, Keyword-Driven, and Hybrid framework options

C That the login button is clickable

D That the footer is visible

Key Result

Always wait explicitly for key elements to load before interacting or asserting their presence to avoid flaky tests.
