[WebUI] Plan test suite

Plan a test suite​

Planning a test suite helps ensure you will not need to restructure test cases. By doing so, you reduce execution errors.

Ask yourself the following questions:
  • What is your test suite goal?
  • How do you want to execute your test suite?

Define test suite goals​

A test suite includes a series of actions depicting a particular user experience on your website.

You plan test cases based on deciding which action a test case should perform. You then create a test suite flow by naming and ordering test cases.

For example, to test the online shopping experience of users, your test suite might include actions as per the following sequence:

  • Sign up or log in test case.
  • Enter shopping cart test case.
  • Check out test case.
  • Order confirmation test case.

Structuring test cases in a test suite prevents chaos and identifies issues before test suite execution.

Test suite execution​

Once defining test suite goals, the following guidelines could support your test suite execution step by step:

  1. Create a new test suite.
  2. Plan test suite operation.
  3. View Test suite reports.

    Katalon Studio logs test suite results in different formats and provides a complete account of the test suite process to help spot errors and reduce test case restructuring time.
