Cadasta Test Suites and Execution Order Implementation

During the code reviews I had with Kate, there were requirements to implement the execution order of the Cadasta Selenium test cases and to get rid of Django dependencies. That means to make cadasta-test purely python.

Since I’ve already completed User Accounts, Projects and Organizations related UI test automation, I started finding a way to include the above requirements.

Then I learnt about the python test suites. The article[1] which demonstrates the use of test suites in python guided me well. Thus I created separate test suites for Accounts, Projects and Organizations. (More test suites are on the way for XLSForms, etc.)

Then I organized the folder hierarchy of cadasta-test repo and made the way UI tests running more professional. Now you can run the tests by;

• Clone the repo : git clone https://github.com/Cadasta/cadasta-test.git
• Go inside cadasta-test : cd cadasta-test
• ./runtests
