Scenarios

Scenarios are groups of test cases that belong together. They are best organized around user flows, such as:
  • Login
  • Product Search
  • Add to shopping cart
  • Checkout
  • Notification Settings
Each scenario should optimally include both positive and negative test cases. For example, a “Checkout Process” scenario might include:
  • Successful purchase with valid payment details
  • Order completion with fedex shipping
  • Payment attempt with expired credit card (negative case)
  • Checkout with empty cart (negative case)
This structure helps ensure comprehensive testing of each user flow, including both expected successes and potential failure points.

​
Negative Testing

Negative testing is a QA practice that validates how a system handles invalid inputs, unexpected user behavior, and error conditions. Think of it as “testing what shouldn’t work” to ensure the application fails gracefully and securely.
  • Validating error messages
  • Ensuring system stability under incorrect usage
  • Preventing security vulnerabilities
  • Maintaining data integrity

​
Tests and Test Runs

Every time a test run is triggered, we run the selected scenarios. The result is a test run with one or more test cases in it.
