# Lifen Autotest Hangout with Simon Priet

Please find in this project my hangout of your technical test. The test is performed with `cypress`, and include `cypress-cucumber-preprocessor`. This module process `.feature` files and find matching `.js` files to run them by cypress runner. I initially coded cypress to do the part 2 only, but took time to include the part one as well. Now cypress run the api to generate the communication with the document, then connect the user to send the mail.

Currently, cypress is still challenged with a SMS code, and I have not implemented a workaround. Cypress wait 20 for me to put the code in the GUI, then continue. Please feel free to reconfigure your environment with your own phone number to try out. **However**, this automate can't be industrialized into a CI/CD pipeline.

I fond 2 tools that can help us more:

* [`cypress-recurse` 🌐](https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-recurse) can retry several time a request until a certain condition is meet. This can help us wait for Irène to process the CommunicationRequest (`draft` → `suspended`), before going any further.
* [`cypress-mailosaur` 🌐](https://mailosaur.com/docs/frameworks-and-tools/cypress/) is a mail and text provided that can help us read texts content sent by the server to a predefined phone number, and work around the text code challenge.

# Installation

The code has been written with VSC in mind, on a Windows 10 machine, so a launch.json is available to help run and debug the softwares. No helpers are available for other IDE.

1.  Clone the repo to your local computer. You will need the following requierement:
    *   Node.js 16
    *   Git
2. Open a terminal in your project folder
2. Purge the `node_module` folder ( `rm -rf ./node_modules/`)
3. Run `npm install` to reinstall cypress and it's dependences according to your OS's environment. npm will use the `package.json` to find what to do.
2. Type `npm run test` to launch the script. In VS code, run `Test Cypress via NPM` from the *Run and Debug* tab. The `Launch.json` file will trigger the `test` script configured in the `package.json`.
6. On the cypress GUI, select `sendDocument` for the throughout test, and `inbox` for some subtests in the Inbox website.
