UI Tests

Introduction

We have some user interface tests (sometimes called web acceptance tests). These tests launch and control a browser, and perform several actions to check that the behavior, from the point of view of a real user, is as expected. These tests send actual HTTP requests and check the returned DOM.

These tests can be found in UI folders.

Stack

UI tests work by controlling a browser and using the web interface like a real user.

We use the following stack:

• Playwright as automation tool
• Mocha as test framework
• Chai as assertion library
• Faker as fake data generator

Everything is explained in README in the tests/UI folder. You’ll need a working installation of PrestaShop in order to run the tests.
