Methodology
🔐 Authentication is the gateway to any secure application. A well-tested authentication system ensures data protection, prevents unauthorised access, and enhances user trust. In this blog, we dive into detailed test cases for the authentication module of Telex.im, covering Sign Up and Login functionalities.
🚀 Why Authentication Testing is Critical
Authentication failures can lead to security breaches, account takeovers, and data leaks. Testing helps identify weaknesses in:
✅ User registration flow
✅ Login and session management
✅ Password and multi-factor authentication
✅ Error handling for invalid credentials
To ensure comprehensive coverage, I developed 25 test cases, addressing positive scenarios, negative cases, and edge conditions.
📌 Authentication Features Tested:
Sign-Up Process
Key Test Cases:
- Successful account creation with valid credentials
- Attempt to sign up with an already registered email
- Sign up using an invalid email format
- Magic link verification for authentication
Login Process
Key Test Cases:
- Successful login with correct credentials
- Login attempt with incorrect email or password
- Authentication using a magic link
- Account lockout after multiple failed login attempts
- "Forgot Password" functionality to reset access
For full transparency, I have documented all test cases in a Google Sheets document. You can access it here
