Exploratory Testing Charter for Property Details in STR Application

Mission

Explore the "Property Details" page in the STR application to validate the end-to-end user experience for hosts listing property details. Focus on field interactions, default values, conditional logic, error handling, and the visibility of entered information on the review and examiner pages.

🚀 Goal

Ensure hosts have a clear, error-free experience entering property details and that data persists accurately across the Review & Confirm and examiner views. Validate consistent conditional logic and error handling for a seamless user experience.

Areas to Explore

1. Type of Space Selection

• Goal: Verify that hosts can select "Entire home" or "Shared accommodation" and that "Entire home" is selected by default.
• Test Ideas:
  • Confirm radio button functionality for selecting "Entire home" or "Shared accommodation."
  • Validate dynamic changes triggered by each selection, especially for subsequent questions (e.g., Q3 conditional question).
  • Check tooltip visibility and accuracy.

2. Principal Residence Verification

• Goal: Ensure accurate display and behavior of options based on previous answers, specifically if the rental unit is on the same property as the host’s principal residence.
• Test Ideas:
  • Confirm "Yes" is the default and that only one option can be selected.
  • Validate tooltip for the "principal residence" definition.
  • Confirm conditional display of Q3 based on selecting "Yes," with wording adjusted according to "Type of Space."

3. Host Residence on Property (Conditional Question)

• Goal: Assess the conditional question that appears when "Yes" is selected for "principal residence."
• Test Ideas:
  • Verify correct wording for options under different conditions ("Entire home" vs. "Shared accommodation").
  • Ensure hosts can select only one option and that the default is "The host lives in this unit when it’s not rented."

4. Number of Rooms for Rent

• Goal: Validate input for the number of rooms being rented, ensuring that only valid numbers can be entered.
• Test Ideas:
  • Test numeric field allows whole numbers only (from 1 onward) and prevents zero or negative entries.
  • Confirm up/down arrows function correctly for increasing/decreasing room count.
  • Check error handling for invalid inputs and verify inline error messages.

5. Rental Unit Type Selection

• Goal: Confirm that hosts can select a rental unit type, with "Single Family Home" as the default.
• Test Ideas:
  • Validate dropdown or selection functionality for unit types (e.g., Secondary Suite, Townhome, Condo).
  • Ensure tooltip with registration requirements appears correctly.
  • Verify embedded link functionality for registration requirements once available.

6. Review & Confirm Page Display

• Goal: Check that the selected answers for all questions (including the conditional question if applicable) are displayed accurately on the review page.
• Test Ideas:
  • Validate that selections are visible in the correct order and match the input from the Property Details page.
  • Confirm readability and alignment of text and formatting.

7. Examiner Application Details Page

• Goal: Ensure that examiners can view host selections accurately on the details page for examination.
• Test Ideas:
  • Validate that all relevant data points, including any conditional responses, are displayed correctly.
  • Check display consistency with the Review & Confirm page for cross-referencing purposes.

8. Error Handling and Navigation

• Goal: Assess error handling across required fields and navigation flow.
• Test Ideas:
  • Trigger errors by skipping required fields and attempt navigation without completion to verify error messages under fields and in the stepper.
  • Check that navigating away from the page prompts users to complete required fields.

Notes

• Use tooltips and default values as guidance for exploring consistency across fields.
• Verify all dynamic changes triggered by previous answers (e.g., conditional questions) to ensure logic is sound.
• Observe behavior with different combinations of selections to uncover any potential gaps in conditional flow.

🔑 Business Rules Summary

1. Type of Space:

   • "Entire home" selected by default; selections trigger conditional questions as needed.

2. Principal Residence and Conditional Logic:

   • "Yes" is default for principal residence question; conditional question wording changes based on "Type of Space."

3. Room Count and Unit Type:

   • Numeric field for room count allows only whole numbers, starting from 1.
   • "Single Family Home" is default for unit type selection.

4. Review & Examiner Page:

   • Ensure data consistency between host input on Review & Confirm and examiner’s Application Details view.
