Test Cases

User migration in web application is the process of migrating all users from one site (development site) to another (live site). Recently I have worked on a project where I got a chance to test user migration. In our project we had developed user migration in a sandbox environment. Following are the test cases for user migration. Test cases/checklists:

Drupal sites usually have authorized as well as unauthorized users. The privilege of authorized users is that they can access certain pages of the website in addition to the pages that can be accessed by unauthorized users. A user account page/Login page is included in Drupal for those users who wish to access the website as an authenticated user. Read on to know the test cases to test the login page in Drupal. The default Drupal Login page mainly consists of following three tabs (Check the images for reference).

The word 'Social Networking site' needs no definition. It plays a major role in helping users to connect with each other. Apart from this, they also plays a crucial role in promoting business (in increasing the traffic to one's site). In this article, we will see all possible test cases for testing a site with social networking implemented. Testing is almost similar in facebook, twitter and google plus. Facebook: Like button:

Global Redirect is a functional module which ensures the correct redirection of users to the alias of a given drupal path, thus avoiding duplicated content from multiple URLs. This is very important for SEO because otherwise search engines will see the same content at the Drupal path as well as at its alias causing it to believe that the site is duplicating content at two different URLs

Just as for File Upload fields, Image Upload fields are equally prone to hack attempts. They also have additional functionality to do post-upload, such as passing the image through various image processing filters / presets. While testing Image Upload Fields, you have to take into consideration all these points. Here are some test cases to help you test image upload fields on a Drupal site:

When focusuing on Drupal website development, user roles and permissions are an important way of controlling access to the site. This is more so important when there are multiple individuals besides the website owner who administers the site. Other people can be assigned certain 'roles' which define the kind of access that is to be granted. Basically in Drupal, the Site maintainer and Administrator roles are given all the available permissions and Drupal Administrator role receives all permissions throughout the lifespan of the site. This is not the case for other 'roles', where access within admin permissions and time limits only are granted to users linked to those roles.

A contact form is included with websites mainly to allow users to communicate with the site administrator, share their feedback/messages regarding the website or reaching out to the business owner of the site for services/support. In this article, I have covered a set of test cases that can be used to test the Drupal site contact form.reach

You might ponder as to why test a link, or even include it as a test case when there are several other major functionalities to be tested in a Drupal website. Every site, be it Drupal or non-Drupal, contains numerous links, some of which lead to external sites and some that whirl within the site. The 'web' works extensively through links, and it is through links that sites are navigated to and get found. Links are also the underlying indicators for security of a site. So links should be paid attention to and be tested thoroughly. Here are some test cases to help you get started:

If you are a web tester new to a Drupal website and you got a Drupal website for testing, then you can take your baby steps in testing with the basic content types of the site - such as pages, story as almost all sites have at least one content of this type. Read on to know the details about some of the content types in a Drupal website and its test cases.

HTML validation is done mainly to ensure that webpages follow the HTML standards and rules set by W3C (World Wide Web Consortium). A webpage with correct HTML helps

The criteria required to 'stop testing' is determined by many factors. When a test plan is created it is critical to define the exit criteria. Following are some of the decisions we take to explicitly stop testing during the testing phase.

'Completely Automated Public Turing Test to tell computers and humans apart' or simply 'CAPTCHA' is something that we come across in the Log in / contact form of almost every modern website. As the name suggests, it is used to differentiate between humans and computers. It is a test which usually comes in the form of mathematical questions (Number Captcha) or image recognition (Image Captcha) for the users to solve, in order to login and access certain pages in the websites. 'ReCaptcha' is also a type of captcha which contains an image with 2 words.

In positive testing our intention is to prove that an application will work on giving valid input data. i.e. testing a system by giving its corresponding valid inputs. For example: Consider Drupal webpage containing a textbox whose specified requirement in the SRS document is to accept only numbers. In that case when we perform positive testing, we will give only numbers as input data in the textbox and analyse whether the application is working properly or not. Here, our expectation is that the text box should accept the given input values.

If you need to create a custom Search View then the Search API module is all you need to rely on. It is quite easy to create Views on search data using Search API. Read on to know how to create a custom Search View using the Search API, Views and Entity API.

Comment Management module helps a site owner to manage the posted comments on his website.

Following are the test cases / checklists for Drupal 7 default Comment Management Module

While testing any website, be it Drupal / non-Drupal, one would often have to test Date fields. Following are the test cases to be considered / checked for, while testing a date field:

Banking application packages are probably the most complex software suites which demand high security, faster transactions per second, massive database storage system, and highly efficient multitasking to support thousands of concurrent users. Banking applications have multiple levels involved in performing an operation. For example, a banking application may have:

To ensure the security of confidential data in your Drupal site, testing has to be done to determine whether it protects its data and at the same time maintains its functionality. Web applications are always prone to unauthorized access to or modification of sensitive information. The testing done on the applications to remove such anomalies is called security testing. The following are some of the test cases for assuring the security of a Drupal website Authentication
