Project Structure Refactoring - Completion Report

Objective

Restructure the Playwright automation framework to achieve a clean, multi-app supportive architecture as proposed.

Proposed Structure

Changes Implemented

1. ✅ Created src/config Directory

  • Location: src/config/
  • Files Created:
    • env.config.ts - Environment configuration management
    • saucedemo.config.ts - SauceDemo app-specific configuration
    • cura.config.ts - CURA app-specific configuration
    • app.config.ts - Already existed

2. ✅ Reorganized Core Fixtures

  • Old Location: src/core/fixture.ts (empty) and src/fixture/
  • Canonical Location: src/core/fixtures/auth.fixture.ts
  • Status: Fixture moved, duplicate legacy path removed, and docs consolidated under src/core/fixtures/
  • Updated Imports: Tests now use the canonical core fixture path

3. ✅ Created Core Utilities

  • Location: src/core/utils/
  • Files Created:
    • waitUtils.ts - Wait strategies (network idle, element stability, etc.)
    • randomUtils.ts - Random data generation (email, phones, dates, etc.)

4. ✅ Multi-App Support

  • SauceDemo App: src/apps/saucedemo/

    • Pages: LoginPage.ts, InventoryPage.ts, CartPage.ts
    • Test Data: users.ts with standard_user and locked_out_user

  • CURA App: src/apps/cura/

    • Pages: LoginPage.ts, AppointmentPage.ts, ConfirmationPage.ts
    • Test Data: users.ts with John Doe credentials

5. ✅ Test Organization

  • SauceDemo Tests: tests/saucedemo/smoke/ and tests/saucedemo/regression/

    • login.spec.ts
    • add-to-cart.spec.ts

  • CURA Tests: tests/cura/smoke/ and tests/cura/regression/

    • login.spec.ts
    • book-appointment.spec.ts

6. ✅ Additional Directories Created

  • test-results/ and playwright-report/ - For reports, screenshots, traces, and artifacts
  • docker/ - For Docker-related files

7. ✅ Cleanup

  • Removed obsolete fixture files from src/core/
  • Removed the duplicate legacy fixture path now that tests use the canonical core fixture location

Verification Results

TypeScript Compilation

✅ npm run typecheck - PASSED
No TypeScript errors detected

Test Execution

✅ npm run test:saucedemo -- --grep "user can login successfully"
Running 3 tests using 3 workers
✅ 3 passed (9.9s)

Summary

The project structure has been successfully refactored to match the proposed multi-app supportive framework architecture. All configuration files are properly organized, fixtures have been consolidated, utilities are centralized in src/core/, and each application has its own dedicated folder structure with pages and test data.

The framework now supports:

  • ✅ Multiple application testing (SauceDemo, CURA)
  • ✅ Centralized configuration management
  • ✅ Reusable core utilities
  • ✅ Modular test organization (smoke/regression)
  • ✅ Clean separation of concerns
  • ✅ Full TypeScript compilation support
