- Project Title: E-commerce Website Testing and Quality Assurance
Description: Develop a simple e-commerce website (such as an online bookstore or clothing store) and focus on testing its functionality, usability, and security.
Role: Quality Assurance Tester
Responsibilities:
1. Test Planning: Develop a test plan outlining the testing approach, objectives, scope, and test cases for various functionalities of the e-commerce website.
2. Functional Testing: Conduct functional testing to ensure that all features and functionalities of the website, such as user registration, product search, adding items to cart, and checkout process, work as expected.
3. Usability Testing: Evaluate the usability of the website by testing navigation, layout, design elements, and overall user experience to identify any usability issues or areas for improvement.
4. Compatibility Testing: Test the website on different web browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari) and devices (e.g., desktop, tablet, mobile) to ensure compatibility and responsiveness across various platforms.
5. Performance Testing: Assess the performance of the website by measuring response times, load times, and server performance under different traffic conditions to identify any performance bottlenecks.
6. Security Testing: Conduct security testing to identify vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and authentication flaws, and ensure that sensitive user data is protected.
7. Regression Testing: Perform regression testing after each code change or update to ensure that new features or fixes do not introduce any unintended side effects or break existing functionality.
8. Documentation: Document test results, defects, and any recommendations for improvements in a comprehensive test report to be shared with the development team.
