Test Case #20

Typical user login test cases (login OK and login failed), design-wise, are the same as our session #4 (for the AgileTravel site).

Different from AgileTravel, WhenWise is a real app that people run their businesses on it. (Of course, we are only testing against its test server instance).

In other words, from this session, you will put the knowledge and practices learned in the previous session against real-world test scenarios.

As expected, compared to AgileTravle, you will see some extra but common login elements on the WhenWise Login page, such as “Remember Me”. Please note we will not test the “remember me” business feature. Just focus on the basic login scenarios, but I will ask you to click the ‘remember me’ box.
