My Store - Testing

1. Text Area Input Field Validation

• Objective: Ensure that text areas function properly for user input.

• Test Cases:

  • Max Length Validation: Test that the text area has a maximum character limit (if applicable) and shows an appropriate warning or error message when exceeded.

  • Minimum Length Validation: Verify that a minimum character requirement (if applicable) prompts the user to provide sufficient input.

  • No Special Characters (if required): Ensure that the system properly handles or rejects unwanted special characters (e.g., HTML tags, emojis, SQL injection attempts).

  • Empty Text Area Handling: Test that an empty text area does not cause errors or issues when submitted (e.g., in product reviews or contact forms).

  • Character Encoding: Verify that characters are correctly encoded and displayed (e.g., for multi-language sites).

2. Multi-line Support

• Objective: Ensure the text area supports multi-line input where necessary.

• Test Cases:

  • Line Breaks: Test the ability to enter multiple lines of text (e.g., pressing "Enter" or "Return" should add a new line).

  • Text Wrapping: Ensure text wraps correctly inside the text area and doesn't overflow or break the layout.

3. Text Area Resizing (if applicable)

• Objective: Ensure the text area is resizable (if allowed) and remains functional.

• Test Cases:

  • Resizing by User: Test that users can resize the text area by dragging the corner (if the functionality is supported).

  • Auto-Expanding (if applicable): Verify that the text area automatically expands vertically to accommodate more input (e.g., in product reviews or customer feedback).

4. User Experience (UX)

• Objective: Ensure the text area is user-friendly and easy to interact with.

• Test Cases:

  • Focus State: Verify that clicking into the text area brings the user’s focus to the field, and the cursor appears.

  • Placeholder Text: Ensure that placeholder text is visible when the text area is empty and disappears when the user starts typing.

  • Scrollbars: If the text area overflows with content, verify that scrollbars appear when appropriate.

  • Clear Text (if applicable): Verify the presence and functionality of a "Clear" or "Reset" button if available, and ensure it clears all input in the text area.
