Status: COMPLETE & ENHANCED

Features:

  • Smart assessment setup fixture integration
  • Robust question loop with failure handling
  • Enhanced submission flow
  • Comprehensive feedback handling
  • Detailed logging and progress tracking

Key Improvements:

  • Consecutive failure tracking (prevents infinite loops)
  • Pre-submit verification
  • Progressive waits for submit button
  • Robust feedback modal handling (10-second timeout)
  • Final summary with statistics

📊 Test Flow (Complete)

Phase 1: Setup

  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

Phase 2: Question Loop

  1. Detect question ID (with retry)
  2. Detect question type (with scroll fallback)
  3. Answer question (with failure tracking)
  4. Check submit button state
  5. Navigate to next question (if available)
  6. Handle edge cases (no next button, submit not enabled)
  7. Continue until all questions answered

Phase 3: Submission

  1. Verify submit button is enabled
  2. Click submit with error handling
  3. Wait for and confirm submission modal
  4. Wait for success modal
  5. Handle feedback modal (with 10-second timeout)
  6. Submit feedback
  7. Final summary and completion
