Lesson 2: Test the application using the manual test script

This lesson shows you how to test the application using the manual test script and log the results.

1. In the Classics Java™ application, expand the Bach folder, click Violin Concertos, and then click Place Order.
2. In the Run Test Script window, click Apply for each of the three steps to indicate that they are done.
3. Click Apply because the Member Logon dialog box opened. Manual Tester places the word "pass" to the left of the verification point and moves the arrow to the first step in the Log In as Existing Customer group.
4. In the Classics Java application, perform the four steps in the Log In as Existing Customer group, as described in the script, and check off each step. The four steps in the group are:
   1. Make sure Existing Customer is selected.
   2. Make sure Trent Culpito appears in the Full Name list.
   3. In the Password field, type 1234567.
   4. Click OK.
   Note: You may not always want to check off every step individually, but you do want to confirm each verification point and reporting point.
5. In the Run Test Script window toolbar, click Skip to next Verification Point or Reporting Point (). Manual Tester skips to the reporting point, Was the order placed correctly?
6. Click Apply because the Place an Order dialog box contains the item we ordered.
7. In the Place an Order dialog box, type the card number and expiration date.
8. Click the Place Order button.
9. In the Run Test Script window toolbar, click Skip to next Verification Point or Reporting Point (). Manual Tester skips to the reporting point, Was the Message Box displayed that indicates your order has been received?
10. Click Apply because the Message Box contains the item that was ordered.
11. When you have finished the test, in the Run Test Script window toolbar, click Save the test results and end the test (). Manual Tester displays the Save As dialog box. As a default, Manual Tester uses the script name as the filename and *.execution as the file type for the log.
12. Click Save. Manual Tester closes the Save As dialog box and the Run Test Script window and redisplays the Manual Tester window.
13. In the Project Explorer, expand the Logs folder and double-click the test log file that you just generated. Manual Tester displays the test log in the Test Log viewer.
