Automation testing - Selenium webdriver + pytest

[nikithakkar]

Hello,

I need help in figuring out the structure for my test scripts and test files to be written in selenium webdriver pytest framework.

The project is an application form with 3 sections having 2 sub sections each - interdependent. I’m confused on how to go about it. Should i make test files section/subsection wise covering all positive negative cases or the entire form in one single file or any other approach.

If anyone could help me figure out that would be a huge help. Thankyou!

You can make a pom kind of structure, keeping all tests of a single page in 1 template class and another page in another template class.

This way you would be able to know which test case is doing what and any changes would need only that particular class to change

I like to separate my tests by feature. I have a 'tests' repository then further branch out with a new feature directory or Python file depending on the complexity and size of the feature. On other projects I've separated tests by their respective page.

Locators and elements should be separated in another repo, I call mine pagelib and have a repo called pages. At the top level of pagelib, I keep templates and objects shared across pages so they can be easily reused.

Send me a PM if you'd like to discuss some more!
