Automation sandbox • Stable test IDs • Built for QA teams
Automation Testing Practice Website for QA Engineers & Developers
Purpose-built test automation practice for QA engineers and SDETs. Build Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, and WebdriverIO suites while pairing UI flows with API testing and observability data.
PassTheNote mirrors modern SaaS behavior across e-commerce, notes, authentication, admin, and API modules so you can rehearse realistic workflows, negative paths, and guided challenges without standing up your own stack.
Practice Areas & Challenges
Realistic modules grouped by difficulty
Pick a workflow, review the recommended scenarios, then automate it end-to-end with your preferred framework.
E-Commerce Workflow
IntermediateSimulates real storefront behavior with inventory updates, discount logic, and order fulfillment.
- Add, update, and remove items from the cart with price assertions
- Apply coupons, validate totals, and handle out-of-stock items
- Complete checkout and confirm order history & notifications
Notes & Knowledge Sharing
BeginnerCollaborative notes app with tagging, search, and CRUD actions for UI automation practice.
- Create, edit, and delete notes with tag filters
- Validate optimistic updates and empty states on /notes/mine
- Share notes and assert toast notifications or permissions
Authentication & Sessions
BeginnerModern auth stack with onboarding flows, validation, and session handling for negative testing.
- Sign up, verify login, and assert session persistence
- Trigger password reset with token validation edge cases
- Test rate limiting or lockout messaging after failed attempts
Admin Dashboard
AdvancedAnalytics-heavy area for role-based testing, data grids, and complex assertions.
- Validate protected routes and role-based redirects
- Audit recent orders/users tables with sorting & filtering
- Monitor metric cards and sparkline data consistency
API Explorer & Gateway
IntermediateREST endpoints with Postman collection plus built-in explorer for API-first automation.
- Chain auth + data setup requests before UI flows
- Use API explorer to generate Rest Assured code samples
- Verify contract responses and negative status codes
