Configurations

You need to setup few environment variables to run the test. It's designed to be able to easily configure test data and store it individually, so that test data management is easy. Just configure following environment variables. Either set below environment variables on the Windows Environment Variable or in the DOS shell using command 'SET <variable_name> '

COLTestConfigFilePath

Set environment variable with name 'COLTestConfigFilePath' and point it to a json file with below structure.

{
	"COL_URL": "https://pages.circles.life/",
	"FB_URL": "https://www.facebook.com/",
	"Browser": "Chrome",
}

A sample of this this file is avaible in TestData/Config.json file.

COLTestDataFolder

Set environment variable with name 'COLTestDataFolder' and point it to a folder which contains all the test data files for each web page test cases. Each Web page will have 1 or more test cases, all test data pertaining to a web page is stored in a single separate json file. Below is the sample json structure for test data for SignIn page.

{
	"TestSignIn":
	{
		"UserName": "[email protected]",
		"Password": "autotestcol2018"
