Trivia Tests

This is a sample test suite for the Trivia API at https://opentdb.com/api.php. It contains a regression test suite as well as a more exhaustive test for a particular functionality of the API. There is also a Jmeter plugin that can be used for performance testing.

Dependencies

The project uses several dependencies, including:

• TestNG for testing framework.
• Rest-assured for REST API Testing.
• Log4j for logging.
• Apache Commons CSV for working with CSV files.
• Java 21 (can be changed in pom.xml)

Building and Running Tests

The project uses Maven, so you can build and run the tests using the Maven command line tool. The pom.xml file includes a configuration for the Maven Surefire Plugin to run the tests. To build the project and run the tests, use the following command:

mvn clean test

To run only the regression tests, use the following command:

mvn clean test -Dgroups=regression

To run only the exhaustive test, use the following command:

mvn clean test -Dgroups=exhaustive

To run only the performance tests, use the following command:

mvn verify -Pjmeter-tests

Note: to prevent throttling, there is a 5-second delay between each request.

Results for exhaustive / regression tests are written to the target/surefire-reports directory. Results for performance tests are written to the target/jmeter/results directory.
