Test cases/Scenarios For Web Site Cookie Testing:

1) Verified that on Sensitive and Personal data is stored In cookies.

2)Verified that if any personal data is stored in cookies it should be stored in encrypted format.

3) Verified  that there is no overuse of cookies on your site under test. Overuse of cookies will annoy users if browser is prompting for cookies more often and this could result in loss of site traffic and eventually loss of business.

4) Verified that If you are using cookies on your site, your sites major functionality will not work by disabling the cookies.  There should not be any page crash due to disabling the cookies. (Please make sure that you close all browsers, delete all previously written cookies before performing this test)

5) Verified that on Disabling the cookies appropriate messages Should be displayed to user like “For smooth functioning of this site make sure that cookies are enabled on your browser” while navigate through Site.

6) Verified that there should not be any page crash due to disabling the cookies.

Note:Please make sure that you close all browsers, delete all previously written cookies before performing this test)

7) Verified that your web application page is writing the cookies properly on different browsers as intended and site works properly using these cookies. You can test your web application on Major used browsers like Internet explorer (Various versions), Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, Opera etc.

8) Verified that cookies written by one domain can not accessed by another browser.

9) Verified that Corrupted cookies can not be accessible by other domain.

Note: Corrupting cookie is easy. You know where cookies are stored. Manually edit the cookie in notepad and change the parameters to some vague values. Like alter the cookie content, Name of the cookie or expiry date of the cookie and see the site functionality. In some cases corrupted cookies allow to read the data inside it for any other domain. This should not happen in case of your web site cookies.

10)  Accepts/Reject some cookies: The best way to check web site functionality is, not to accept all cookies. If you are writing 10 cookies in your web application then randomly accept some cookies say accept 5 and reject 5 cookies. For executing this test case you can set browser options to prompt whenever cookie is being written to disk. On this prompt window you can either accept or reject cookie. Try to access major functionality of web site. See if pages are getting crashed or data is getting corrupted.

11) Delete cookie: Allow site to write the cookies and then close all browsers and manually delete all cookies for web site under test. Access the web pages and check the behavior of the pages.

12) Checking the deletion of cookies from your web application page: Some times cookie written by domain say rediff.com may be deleted by same domain but by different page under that domain. This is the general case if you are testing some ‘action tracking’ web portal. Action tracking or purchase tracking pixel is placed on the action web page and when any action or purchase occurs by user the cookie written on disk get deleted to avoid multiple action logging from same cookie. Check if reaching to your action or purchase page deletes the cookie properly and no more invalid actions or purchase get logged from same user.

13) If your web application is using cookies to maintain the logging state of any user then log in to your web application using some username and password. In many cases you can see the logged in user ID parameter directly in browser address bar. Change this parameter to different value says if previous user ID is 456 then make it 452 and press enter. The proper access message should be displayed to user and user should not be able to see other users account.

14) In case of online shopping portal testing ,Verified that when user reach to final order summary page,cookie of previous page  i.e. shopping cart page should be deleted properly.

15) Verified that credit card number should not be stored in cookies not even in encrypted form.

  • Verify that If the screen contains text boxes that allow data entry, ensure that the width of data entered does not exceed the width of the table field.
  • If the information in the screen is not self-explanatory to the casual user, should provide onscreen instructions to aid the user.
  • If the screen takes more than 5 seconds to display the results/page, it should contain a progress bar so that the user understands the processing is continuing.
     
  • The screen look, feel, and design should match the other screens in your application. (Application should match with the Wireframe or design document provided).
     
  • If the screens contain abbreviations (e.g. Nbr for number, Amt for amount, etc), the abbreviations should be consistent for all screens in the application.
     
  • If the screen allows changing of data without saving, it should prompt users to save if they move to another record or screen.
  • If a person deletes an item, it is a good idea to confirm the delete. User should be prompted with confirmation alert.
     
  • If the user interface uses combo boxes (drop down lists), be sure to include type ahead (if there are hundreds of items in a list, users should be able to skip to the first item that begins with that letter when they type in the first letter).
     
  • Ensure the test cases look for grammar or spelling errors.
     
  • If the application lists information in table format and the data in the table extend past one page, the scrolling should scroll the data but leave the table headers intact.
     
  • If fatal errors occur as users use your application, ensure that the application writes those errors to a log file, event viewer, or a database table for later review. Log the routine the error was in, the person logged on, and the date/time of the error.
     
  • Ensure that error messages are informative, grammatically correct, and not condescending.
     
  • If the application allows short cut keys for copy/paste etc, should test each and every short cuts
     
  • Do not show menu items that are not available for the context users are currently in.
  • Use a style guide to document what choices are available for dialog boxes. Application should not have Save/Cancel dialog on one screen and an OK/Cancel on another. This is inconsistent.
  • Ensure that the screen font family matches from screen to screen. Mismatching fonts within the same sentence and overuse of different fonts is not allowed.
     
  • Ensure that the screen font sizes match from screen to screen. A good user interface will have an accompanying style guide that explicitly defines the font type and size for headers, body text, footers, etc.
  • Ensure that screens do not use different color sets as to cause an inconsistent.style guide should define header colors, body background colors,screen background color, footer colors, etc.
  • Ensure that icons are consistent throughout your application by using a common icon set. For example, a BACK link that contains an icon next to it should not have a different icon on one screen versus another. Avoid free clip-art icons.
  • Ensure that narrative text appears at the same location on the screen on all screens.
  • Ensure that narrative text, error messages and other instructions are presented in laymen’s terms but are brief and to-the-point.
  • If your application has links on the screen (e.g. Save as Spreadsheet, Export, Print, Email, etc.), ensure that the links have consistent spacing between them and other links, that the links appear in the same order from screen to screen, and that the color of the links are consistent.
  • If your application has menu items, ensure that menu items that are not applicable for the specific screen are disabled and the order in which each menu item appears is consistent from screen to screen.
     
  • If your application has buttons (e.g. Submit, OK, Cancel, etc), ensure that the buttons appear in a consistent order from screen to screen (e.g. Submit then Cancel).
  • Tabbing will go onto the next field on the screen

Test cases for android app testing:

Memory Related Scenarios:

1. Fill up the Full phone memory with other files and data, and then try to install the APP on the phone.

Expected Result: The APP should not get installed on the phone and the user should be shown a native warning from the phone OS.

2. Fill up the memory with files and data and leave exactly the same amount of memory required for the installation of the APP.

Expected Result: APP should get installed on the phone, but as you launch the APP the phone should refuse as it doesn’t have even 1 KB of extra space that the APP might require to cache some data.

3. Leave only a small amount (5-7 KB) of space for the app to run. While you are in the app and continuously making server calls this memory will also get filled up.

Expected Result: The app should give a warning stating low memory.

Note: Checking point number 3: Ensure that there is no memory card in the phone. You can fill up the memory using Image files. You can also re size the images to so that 5-7 KB of memory is left out.

Some general Scenarios:

Application start/stop behavior-

1. Start the application by selecting the icon or following the steps outlined in the submission statement. Navigate to the Task Manager and check that the application appears there.

Expected Result: The app should be appearing in task manager.

2. Close the application from within the application UI and then return to the Task Manager. Navigate to the Task Manager and check that the application appears there.

Expected Result: The application must no longer be running and must no longer appear in the task manager.

3. An application which must run in the background does not need to appear in the Task Manager or present a UI.

Note: Developer justifies/Provide this behavior during submission.

Application credentials:

1. With the application running, check the name of the application displayed on the phone. The application must display the same name on the phone as stated during submission.

Expected Result:  The application must display the same name on the phone as stated during submission.

No disruption to text messages:

1. With the application installed and running, send a text message to the test device.

Expected Result:  The incoming text message must be notified to the user as per their alert settings.

2. Read the text message on the test device and choose to reply. Send the reply.

Expected Result: The reply must be received at the second device.

3. From the standby screen on the test device, navigate to the “new text message” option and create a new message. Send the message to the second device.

Expected Result: The message must be received at the second device.

Auto-start behavior:

1. With the application running, find the settings for the application — either within the application itself or from the settings option on the device.

Expected Result: There must be an option which allows the user to enable/disable auto-start functionality.

Note: Depends upon application.

2. Ensure that the setting for auto-start behavior is disabled, and restart the device.

Expected Result: The application must not start on device boot.
