# Test Observation and Analysis Report **Date:** 2025-12-11 **Test:** `test_answer_all_questions_in_domain` **Status:** In Progress - Monitoring and Improving --- ## 🔍 Key Observations ### 1. **Question Detection** - ✅ **Working:** Question ID detection is working correctly - ✅ **Working:** Question type detection (rating_scale, multiple_choice, etc.) is functional - ⚠️ **Issue:** Some questions may not be immediately visible (need scrolling) ### 2. **Question Answering** - ✅ **Fixed:** Rating scale questions now handle dynamic option values (not just '1'-'5') - ✅ **Working:** Multiple choice, true/false, open-ended, matrix question types are supported - ✅ **Working:** Question answer helper successfully answers questions ### 3. **Navigation Flow** - ⚠️ **Issue:** Test was only answering 1 question before attempting to submit - ⚠️ **Issue:** Submit button check was failing silently - ⚠️ **Issue:** Next button visibility check may not be robust enough ### 4. **Submit Button** - ⚠️ **Issue:** Submit button is not clickable until all questions are answered - ⚠️ **Issue:** Submit button state check needs to verify both `is_enabled()` and `is_displayed()` --- ## 🛠️ Fixes Implemented ### Fix 1: Rating Scale Dynamic Values **Problem:** Rating scale questions can have any value (not just '1'-'5'), such as: - `"Strongly Disagree"`, `"Disagree"`, `"Neutral"`, `"Agree"`, `"Strongly Agree"` - Custom labels from question settings - Numeric strings from options array **Solution:** Updated `answer_rating_scale()` method to: 1. Dynamically find all rating options using CSS selector pattern 2. Extract values from `data-testid` attributes 3. Fallback to numeric '1'-'5' if nothing found **File:** `utils/question_answer_helper.py` ### Fix 2: Improved Test Loop Logic **Problem:** Test was breaking out of loop after only 1 question **Solution:** Enhanced test loop with: 1. Better logging at each step 2. Robust submit button checks (enabled + displayed) 3. Better handling when next button is not visible 4. Wait for submit button to become enabled if needed **File:** `tests/student_assessment/test_03_domain_assessment.py` ### Fix 3: URL Navigation Wait **Problem:** `wait_for_url_contains()` was being called with unexpected `timeout` parameter **Solution:** Removed `timeout` parameter from method signature (uses `EXPLICIT_WAIT` from config) **File:** `utils/wait_helpers.py`, `pages/domains_page.py` --- ## 📊 Test Execution Flow ### Current Flow: 1. ✅ Smart assessment setup (login, password reset if needed, profile completion if needed) 2. ✅ Navigate to assessments page 3. ✅ Select first assessment 4. ✅ Navigate to domains page 5. ✅ Select first domain 6. ✅ Dismiss instructions modal 7. ✅ Detect first question 8. ✅ Answer first question (rating_scale) 9. ⚠️ **Issue:** Loop exits after 1 question 10. ❌ Submit fails (button not clickable) ### Expected Flow: 1. Smart assessment setup 2. Navigate to assessment 3. Dismiss instructions modal 4. **Loop through all questions:** - Detect question ID - Detect question type - Answer question - Check if submit is enabled - If not, click Next - Repeat until all questions answered 5. Submit assessment 6. Confirm submission 7. Wait for success modal 8. Submit domain feedback --- ## 🎯 Next Steps 1. **Monitor current test run** - Check if improved loop logic works 2. **Verify question navigation** - Ensure Next button clicks work correctly 3. **Test submit button state** - Verify when submit becomes enabled 4. **Handle edge cases:** - Last question (no Next button) - Submit button not immediately enabled after last question - Questions requiring scrolling --- ## 📝 Code Changes Summary ### Files Modified: 1. `utils/question_answer_helper.py` - Updated `answer_rating_scale()` to handle dynamic option values 2. `tests/student_assessment/test_03_domain_assessment.py` - Improved test loop with better logging - Enhanced submit button checks - Better next button handling 3. `utils/wait_helpers.py` - Fixed `wait_for_url_contains()` method signature 4. `pages/domains_page.py` - Updated to use fixed `wait_for_url_contains()` method --- ## 🔄 Test Status - **Current Run:** Monitoring improved test execution - **Expected Outcome:** Test should loop through all questions and submit successfully - **Next Action:** Review test output and fix any remaining issues --- ## 💡 Key Learnings 1. **Rating scale questions** can have dynamic values, not just numeric '1'-'5' 2. **Submit button** requires all questions to be answered before becoming enabled 3. **Next button** visibility check needs to verify both displayed and enabled states 4. **Test logging** is crucial for debugging loop behavior 5. **Wait strategies** need to account for UI state changes (submit button becoming enabled) --- **Last Updated:** 2025-12-11 16:45
