How to test creating listings

This page will walk you through how to test creating listings.

Creating a listing

To create a listing you first need to navigate to the "Manage" page and click "Add Product" in the top right of the page.

"Add Product" pop-up

Once you have clicked "Add Product", a new pop up will open allowing you to select the platform you would like to list your product on and to input all of the product details.

Generating random product data

To generate random product data for testing look for the purple shuffle button in bottom left.

After you have clicked the button, it may take a few seconds for all of the fields to be populated with random data.

Publishing a product

Once all of the fields have been populated you can scroll down to the bottom of the pop up and click "Publish".

You will need to purchase your own listings later on to carry out the tests required for "Orders" so keep the listing price low. For more information about creating orders see How to test creating orders

After you have published a product you must navigate to the platform/s you have published the product on and verify that the product has been published and verify that all the information you have inputted in the "Add Product" pop-up is showing up correctly on the respective platform.

Testing all platforms and options

Listing products on all platforms needs to be tested. Each platform needs to be tested individually and also in combination with other platforms. For example, once listing a product on eBay has been tested you then need to test listing a product on eBay and Amazon, then eBay and Shopify. This process needs to be repeated for every single platform. You must also verify that all the details which were filled out in the "Add Product" form have been successfully added to the listing on each respective platform.

Also all different options must be tested for all important fields. For example, when you are listing an item on eBay you must select the listing type from a drop down; as there are two listing types, you must test both.
