🍊 OrangeHRM v5.0 — My Info Module: QA Testing Project

A structured, end-to-end test suite validating core workflows and role-based access controls across the OrangeHRM 5.0 platform.

---

📋 Overview

This repository contains the complete Test Plan and executable Test Cases for the OrangeHRM Version 5.0 — My Info Module.

The testing strategy is designed to verify that:

• Core business workflows function correctly across all user roles
• Role-based access permissions are strictly enforced
• The employee self-service experience meets all defined requirements

Test cases are extracted from the master test plan (Test Plan OrangeHRM.docx) and compiled into a structured Excel workbook (OrangeHRM_Test Case.xlsx).

🧩 Modules Under Test

#	Module	Key Test Focus
1	Login / Logout & Password Management	Valid/invalid credentials, password changes, multi-role login
2	Admin Module	System configuration, supervisor creation, non-admin access restrictions
3	PIM (Personnel Information Management)	Employee addition workflow, role-restricted record viewing & editing
4	Leave Module	Leave application workflow, self-application limits, manager approval boundaries
5	Time Module	Timesheet configuration, log generation, supervisor approval flows
6	Dashboard & Directory	Widget visibility, data aggregation limits, role-based search behavior

🏗️ Testing Strategy

Testing is structured around two primary dimensions:

🔄 Workflow Testing

Validates that multi-stage business processes transition correctly between user roles and system states — ensuring logical, end-to-end process integrity.

🔐 Role-Based Access Testing

A critical security verification phase that enforces strict access boundaries across three user roles:

Role	Description
Admin	Full system access including configuration and user management
Supervisor	Department-level access; can manage and approve direct reports
ESS (Employee Self-Service)	Personal data access only; cannot view or edit other records

🐞 Test Execution & Defect Management

Tooling

• Test Tracker: Microsoft Excel — for distributing, tracking, and recording execution results

Defect Lifecycle

New → Open → In Progress → Fixed → Verified → Closed

Severity Matrix

Severity	SLA	Examples
🔴 Critical	< 24 Hours	App crash, data loss, login failure
🟠 High	< 48 Hours	Major broken feature, requires significant workaround
🟡 Medium	Standard	Feature glitch with simple workaround
🟢 Low	Standard	Cosmetic or UI misalignment

🚀 Running the Test Cases

1. Open OrangeHRM_Test Case.xlsx
2. Navigate to the relevant module tab at the bottom of the workbook
3. Review the Pre-requisites column for your target test case
4. Execute the steps listed under Steps to Reproduce
5. Record your outcome in the Actual Result column
6. Mark the Status column as Pass or Fail
7. For failures — raise a defect ticket with:
   • Environment details (browser, role, build version)
   • Step-by-step reproduction steps
   • Expected vs. actual result
   • Assigned severity level

📌 Notes

• All test cases are scoped to functional and role-based testing only. Performance and security penetration testing are out of scope for this suite.
• Ensure test data is reset between runs to avoid state-dependent failures.
• Coordinate with the dev team before re-running role-based tests after permission changes.
