Phoenix – Enterprise Test Automation Framework for OrangeHRM

Project Goal

This project provides an end-to-end automation framework for testing the OrangeHRM application (Demo site).
It covers UI testing, API testing, and BDD scenarios to validate critical workflows like Employee Management.

Application Under Test (AUT)

• OrangeHRM Demo URL: https://opensource-demo.orangehrmlive.com

Technology Stack

• Language: Java 17
• UI Automation: Selenium WebDriver + TestNG
• BDD: Cucumber (Gherkin syntax)
• API Testing: REST Assured
• Reporting: ExtentReports
• Dependency Management & Build: Maven
• Browser Management: WebDriverManager

Project Structure

src/
 ├─ main/java/com/phoenix/core        → BaseTest, Config, DriverFactory, Waiter, WaitUtils, TestContext
 ├─ main/java/com/phoenix/pages       → LoginPage, DashboardPage
 ├─ main/java/com/phoenix/pages/pim   → AddEmployeePage, EmployeeListPage, EmployeeDetailsPage
 ├─ main/java/com/phoenix/reporting   → ExtentManager, TestListener
 └─ test/java/com/phoenix/bdd         → Cucumber steps & runner
 └─ test/java/com/phoenix/tests/ui    → AdminLoginTest, PIMFlowTest
 └─ test/java/com/phoenix/tests/api   → EmployeeApiTest

Pre-requisites

• Java 17 installed
• Maven installed
• Chrome browser installed
• Internet connection (for WebDriverManager & API tests)

Configuration

All configurable values are present in:
src/test/resources/config.properties

base.url=https://opensource-demo.orangehrmlive.com/web/index.php/auth/login
admin.username=Admin
admin.password=admin123
timeout=10
browser=chrome

How to Run Tests

1. Run all tests using Maven:

mvn clean test

2. Run specific TestNG suite:

mvn test -DsuiteXmlFile=src/test/resources/testng.xml

3. Run only Cucumber BDD scenarios:

mvn test -Dtest=CucumberTestRunner

3. Run only Api Test:

mvn test -Dtest=*ApiTest

4. Run Perticular Api Test:

mvn test -Dtest=EmployeeApiTest

Test Reports

• ExtentReports (HTML): target/extent-report.html
• Cucumber (Console & Summary): printed in console

Screenshots on test failures are stored in:
target/screenshots/<testMethodName>.png

Browser Configuration

Currently uses Chrome via WebDriverManager.
To change browser in future:

• Update DriverFactory.java to add support for Firefox/Edge.
• Update config.properties to select browser dynamically.

Key Features

• UI Tests: Admin login, PIM Employee CRUD flows
• API Tests: Create, read, delete employee via REST API
• BDD: Gherkin feature for updating employee details
• Reporting: Detailed HTML reports + screenshots on failure
• Thread-safe TestContext: For sharing data across tests

Sample Test Scenario

Feature: Edit existing employee personal details
Scenario: Update middle name for an employee

Given I am logged in as admin
And I am on the PIM Employee List page
When I search employee by id "<EMP_ID>"
And I open the employee details
And I update middle name to "Prakash"
Then I should see middle name as "Prakash"

Notes / Future Enhancements

• Add support for multiple browsers dynamically
• Add parallel execution in TestNG suite
• Extend API tests for PUT/Update endpoints
• Integrate with CI/CD pipelines for automated execution
