Daily Finance Automation Project (Playwright)

This project demonstrates web automation on the Daily Finance website (https://dailyfinance.roadtocareer.net/) using Playwright.

---

Description

The automated workflow includes:

1. Visit the site: https://dailyfinance.roadtocareer.net/.
2. Register a new user.
3. Assert that a congratulatory email is received.
4. Save the user information to a JSON file.
5. Login with the newly created user and assert that /user persists in the URL.
6. Add 2 items, store the table values in a TXT file, and logout.
7. Reset password:
   • Retrieve the new password from the email.
   • Login again with the updated password.
8. Upload a profile image:
   • Ensure the image is ≤ 100 KB.
   • Verify the upload by asserting that img src contains "profileImage".
9. Configure CI/CD pipeline and create a cronjob in playwright.yml to run every Friday at 11:59 PM.

Project Setup

1. Install Playwright

npm install playwright@latest

2. Run Playwright Tests

npx playwright test

3. Generate Playwright Reports

  npx playwright show-report

4. Installed Packages

dotenv → load environment variables

npm i dotenv

@faker-js/faker → generate fake data

npm i @faker-js/faker

Login Assertion

After login, assert that the /user page persists in the URL:

await expect(page).toHaveURL(/.*\/user/);

Email Assertion

To verify the congratulatory email, a Google OAuth token is used from Google OAuth Playground. The token is stored as an environment variable so that Playwright can access it during tests:

Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN}`

and to automate the tests in GitHub Actions, we stored the GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN in the actions variable.

Setup in GitHub Actions (CI/CD)

1. Go to Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions in your repository.
2. Add a new secret: GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN with your token value.
3. GitHub Actions will automatically inject it as an environment variable for the workflow.

CI/CD & Cronjob

The workflow is configured in .github/workflows/playwright.yml. The cronjob runs every Friday at 11:59 PM.
⚠️ Note: GitHub Actions cron uses UTC, so adjust if necessary:

schedule:
  - cron: "59 23 * * 5"  # Friday 11:59 PM
