When testing PDF functionality in NetSuite, consider the following test cases:
PDF Content– Ensure that the generated PDF contains all the necessary information from the corresponding record. All values are properly populated from the required field or record.
PDF alignment and Page Number format-Page Numbers should be in proper format and all data must be properly aligned.
Data Formatting- Check that the data in the PDF is correctly formatted, including decimal places, currency symbols, date formats, and any specific formatting requirements based on your business needs.
Test Template Customizations- If you have customized the PDF template, verify that the modifications are reflected in the generated PDF. This includes layout changes, font styles, logo placement, header/footer information, and any other template customizations.
Handle Large Data Sets- If you have records with a significant amount of data, such as a long list of line items, ensure that the PDF can handle and display the data properly without any truncation or overlapping of content.
Test PDF Security Settings- If you have implemented any security settings for PDFs, such as password protection, printing restrictions, or digital signatures, verify that these settings are applied correctly and enforced when generating the PDF.
Check Compatibility with Different Browsers- Test PDF generation in various web browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) to ensure consistent rendering and proper display of the PDF content across different platforms.
Verify Integration with External Systems- If you integrate NetSuite with other systems or third-party applications that generate PDFs, test the end-to-end process to ensure seamless data transfer and accurate PDF generation.
Validate PDF Links and Navigation- If your PDFs contain hyperlinks or interactive elements, test them to ensure they work as intended and navigate to the correct destinations within NetSuite or external URLs.
Validate PDF Page Breaks- If your PDF template spans multiple pages, test page breaks to ensure that content is appropriately divided between pages and headers /footers are consistent.
