Playwright is a modern automation library for testing web applications. It provides powerful tools to simulate user interactions and verify the functionality of web applications, including Sisense. This documentation will guide you through setting up a test project with Playwright for testing your Sisense dashboards and widgets.

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Git
• Node.js (version 18.16.0 or higher)
• npm (Node Package Manager)
• A Sisense environment to test against

Clone the Playwright test project with tests.

npm install

npx playwright-core install

Getting started with Playwright and VS Code

npx playwright test --project=example --headed

npx playwright test addUser.test.ts --project=example

npx playwright test -g "X-RAY-00001" --project=all

API test examples can be found in the tests/api folder, which contains:

• Add user test (addUser.test.ts)
• Add dashboard and share it test (dashboard.test.ts)
• Restart pods test (pod.test.ts)

UI test examples can be found in the tests/ui folder, which contains:

• Build cube test (build.test.ts)
• Create cube with database connector (connectors.test.ts)
• Create dashboard test (dashboard.test.ts)
• Navigate through application test (navigation.test.ts)
• Create pulse alert (pulse.test.ts)

You can choose any way to implement your test: Layer1 > Layer2 > Layer3 or vice versa. Each test case consists of several actions (UI or API) = STEPS.

UI: Locator (\src\pages) → UIStep (UIStepClass \src\steps\ui) → Test (\tests) API: Controller (\src\api\controllers) → ApiStep (\src\steps\api) → Test (\tests)

First, search for existing UI/API steps. If the step already exists, you can just add it to your test case. If the step doesn’t exist yet, you can create it using the map above.

To implement a new step:

• UI: PageObject locator + primitive action (e.g. click(), fill(), innerText(), etc.)
• API: Controller (get, post, patch, etc.)

Each new UI Steps Class should be added to the Page fixtures (src\fixtures\pages.fixtures.ts) and fixtures you need should be added to your test.

• Use Page Object Model: Organize your tests using the Page Object Model pattern to improve maintainability and readability.
• Handle Dynamic Content: Use appropriate waiting strategies to handle dynamic content that may take time to load.
• Use Environment Variables: Store sensitive information like usernames and passwords in environment variables instead of hardcoding them in your tests.
