I'm a Web application with (almost) no tests.

Test me!

Install Python >=3.12 and poetry

Go to the backend/.env file with this contents:

DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=this-is-an-unsafe-secret
DJANGO_DEBUG=true

$ poetry install
$ poetry run python manage.py migrate
$ poetry run python manage.py runserver

Do not look inside the backend/ folder yet - you're doing black-box testing at this point.

Do some manual, exploratory testing first.

Create a test plan and run it manually.

Put all the bugs you find into a bug tracker

• Open the folder corresponding to your prefer programming language
• Install and configure playwright
• Install a browser that playwright can control:

playwright install chromium

• Use playwright codegen to automate the steps from one your tests in the test plan.

• Add the code to the git repository without any changes.

• Modify the code so that it can run.

• Make sure you can run the already existing end-to-end add-team test

Once it's running, add tests for all the bugs found during step 1.

Notes:

• Use a fixture to reset the database
• Make sure to use the "Page Object Model" design pattern.
• Do not issue POST or GET requests directly outside the browser (you'll do that in a later step)

Compare the code written using the Page Object Model with the one playwright automatically generated.

• Make sure you can run the integration test for add-team.

You'll see it only works when the database contains no other team.

Find a strategy to handle clean separation between tests while still using the database.

Once your done, rewrite the tests from part 2 using raw http request and SQL queries.

Some clues:

Use DBEaver to inspect the contents of the database by opening the file db.sqlite3.

Use your browser dev extensions to look at the payload of the POST requests

The tables used by the backend code can be created and dropped using the up and down sql scripts respectively.
