Testing tips when testing a suitelet page

When testing a SuiteLet page in NetSuite, you’ll want to cover various aspects to ensure its functionality, usability, and performance. Here are some test case scenarios to consider:

1. Input Validation and Error Handling:
   • Test the behavior of the SuiteLet page when invalid or incomplete data is entered.
   • Verify that appropriate error messages are displayed when required fields are missing or invalid data is entered.
   • Check how the SuiteLet page handles different error scenarios, such as duplicate records, exceeding limits, or conflicts with existing data.
2. User Permissions and Access Control:
   • Test the SuiteLet page with different user roles and permissions to ensure access control is enforced correctly.
   • Confirm that users without sufficient privileges are restricted from accessing or performing unauthorized actions on the SuiteLet page.
3. Integration and Data Exchange:
   • If the SuiteLet page interacts with other systems or APIs, test the integration points to ensure seamless data exchange and proper handling of responses.
   • Validate that data synchronization or real-time updates with NetSuite records occur correctly when relevant actions are performed on the SuiteLet page.
4. Security:
   • Test the SuiteLet page for any potential security vulnerabilities, such as injection attacks (e.g., SQL injection, cross-site scripting) or data exposure.
   • Ensure that sensitive data is properly handled and protected, such as using secure connections (HTTPS) and appropriate access controls.
5. Performance and Scalability:
   • Conduct performance testing to measure the responsiveness and speed of the SuiteLet page under different load conditions.
   • Test the page with a varying number of concurrent users to identify any performance bottlenecks or resource limitations.
   • Monitor the system resources (CPU, memory, disk usage) during testing to identify any potential issues related to scalability.
6. Edge Cases and Corner Cases:
   • Include test cases that cover unusual or edge scenarios to ensure the SuiteLet page handles them gracefully.
   • Test scenarios involving large data sets, special characters, boundary values, and uncommon user inputs.
