Which method of testing we use to test LOGIN page?

Answer Posted / shweta chaudhari

Hiiie All,

Security Testing:

1. For Incorrect combination of username and password or
Correct username and empty password or Correct password and
empty username,must display error message "Incorrect
combination of username and password" and both the fields
must cleared and cursor focus to Username field.

2. Correct login, logout and go back with the browser
button: After login with valid credentials click on back
button. Expected: The page should be expired. Should display
Username & Password fields empty and cursor focus in
Username field). Also, same with Forward button.

3. Go directly to a page without use of the login function:
Login with a correct combination of username and password.
Go to a specific page behind the login functions that
requires the login. Copy and paste the URL and logout. Now
you start the test and you paste the address in the URL
field (without using the login page).

4. Check the sustainability of the session

5. Check if the login function is already HTTPS: The ‘S’
from HTTPS stands for Secure. This means the message is
encrypted during transport. If the login page is HTTP and
the conversation after login is HTTPS the first step is
unsecure. Because the message is in plain text the first
request to the server.

6. Multiple times incorrect password: An application where a
lock of account doesn’t occur is capable for a brute force
attack. This is an attack where hackers try to guess your
username or password. They use a tool that systematically
try all options. So locking accounts after 3 or 10 times a
incorrect combination is required.

GUI Testing:

1. All the labels, text boxes and buttons must properly placed.

2. Check the spelling of each and everything in login page.

Following are the standard Username and Password requirements:

Requirements for Password Field:

a. Password must accept all the special characters except
&*<>|;"=./
b. Password should not accept all lower or all Upper case.
c. Password must contain minimum of 6 characters.
d. Password should start with alphabet.
e. Password should not allow special character like space " ".
f. Password field should not blank.

Requirements for Username Field:

a. Usernames must be three to eight characters in length,
and all characters must be lowercase
b. Usernames must contain only the characters a-z and 0-9.
The first character cannot be a number.
c. Acceptable characters include letters, numbers, and the
symbols "@. _"
d. No spaces or other characters are allowed. Your username
is not case sensitive; "A12B34CD" is the same as "a12b34cd".
