Code coverage using ui.tests module & automation Testcases

[varaande]

Hi Team

Can we use  ui.tests module for code coverage & automation Testcases executions.

Can you please let me know, what we can do using ui.test modules and difference Cypress based UI tests( ui.tests.cypress & Selenium based UI tests(ui.tests.wdio) which is recommended to achieve the code coverage and automation testcase.

which maven command need to use to work on in this module? 

mvn clean test or mvn clean install 

Regards

Hi,

In short, yes, you could potentially use the ui.test module to write your automation tests. Adobe provides several flavors of common test automation frameworks such as Cypress and Selenium. It's up to you to decide which one you prefer to use based on your unique situation. The advantage of having tests within this module is that they will be triggered during a regular deployment if you are using AMS (Adobe Managed Services).

To check your test locally, it will vary on which technology you choose, for example, for Cypress, you could use the following command:

1. Build the Docker UI test image with the below command

   mvn clean package -Pui-tests-docker-build
   

2. Run the test

   mvn verify -Pui-tests-docker-execution -DAEM_AUTHOR_URL=https://author.my-deployment.com -DAEM_AUTHOR_USERNAME=<PASS> -DAEM_AUTHOR_PASSWORD=<PASS>

Please check the official documentation that will solve all of your doubts about how to install and use them: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/usi... 

Hope this helps.
