FC5463 – Software Testing

Practical No. 3

Aim: Design test cases for E-commerce (Flipkart, Amazon) login form.
Theory:
• Practical Significance
E-Commerce applications are no less than any boon to a person who is in fond
of shopping, E-Commerce application is narrow down gap between the seller
and buyer. This facilitate buyer to buy required commodity as per their
requirements and also as per their time. Some applications also provide facility
of flash sales to attract users, Considering the threat of various online activities
it is pretty much essential to validate such E-Commerce application. In this
practical a trainee will understand operations of login procedure for E-
Commerce and design Test Case to validate its functionality.

• Background
In modem era most of the people are familiar of various E-Commerce. This
technology has given exclusive rise in trade which benefited all people
associated with Commerce or trade. E-Commerce deals with almost all
commodities that a user requires in its life spat. Having said that it is very much
essential to get acquainted with such application(s) and validate its operation.
The first and foremost step to use such application(s) is to get registered and get
logged-in on these applications. As a test engineer one needs to be very clinical
with testing to avoid unauthorized access to an application developed for the
cause. Common way to achieve this is to validate user's authentication at entry
point only i.e, uat login instance. The login module will segregate between users
and allow only authorized user to proceed for further activity.

• Procedure:

1) Select appropriate tool to generate test case (Like any text editor/web
based tool)

2) Identify required E-Commerce system which is to be tested.

3) Identify required parameters such as test data, expected data etc.
4) Prepare and generate test case.
5) Verify test cases as per the specification by executing test data on any E -
Commerce application(s).

• Amazon Login Scenario

When you already login to the Amazon and revisit the website. It will show you
special box that shows you are already identified. And it requires you to enter
password to next page. And for that flow, it only shows sign in box as shown
below.

If the user has not logged in before then it shows you username and the
password through the flow. It takes username at first and then password is
added on the next part.

Exercises:
1. What are the security threats for E-Commerce System?
The most predominant cybersecurity threats include phishing attacks, credit
card fraud, DDoS Attacks, unprotected online services, etc. The user data such
as login credentials, credit card numbers, etc. are some sensitive information
that is protected by a customer.

2. List different authentication protocols that can be used in providing

security for E Commerce System
a) PAP - Password Authentication Protocol.
b) CHAP - Challenge-handshake authentication protocol.
c) EAP - Extensible Authentication Protocol.
d) AAA – Architecture Protocol(Authentication, Authorization, Acconting)

3. Describe various encryption techniques that can be used to provide

storing login credentials.
• Triple DES
Triple DES was designed to replace the original Data Encryption Standard
(DES) algorithm, which hackers eventually learned to defeat with relative
ease. At one time, Triple DES was the recommended standard and the most
widely used symmetric algorithm in the industry.

• RSA
RSA is a public-key encryption algorithm and the standard for encrypting
data sent over the internet. It also happens to be one of the methods used in
our PGP and GPG programs.

• Blowfish
Blowfish is yet another algorithm designed to replace DES. This symmetric
cipher splits messages into blocks of 64 bits and encrypts them individually.
• Twofish
Computer security expert Bruce Schneier is the mastermind behind Blowfish
and its successor Twofish. Keys used in this algorithm may be up to 256 bits
in length and as a symmetric technique, only one key is needed.

• AES
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the algorithm trusted as the
standard by the U.S. Government and numerous organizations.

Conclusion: Thus, we design test cases for E-commerce (Flipkart, Amazon)

login form.
