3. Testing Types and Methods

• This section details the types of tests performed on each widget, ensuring that all possible scenarios are covered before launching. The main categories of tests include compatibility, usability, performance, and device-specific testing.

Types of Tests Conducted:

1. Compatibility Testing
   • Ensure the widget functions properly across various browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) and devices (desktop, mobile, tablets).
   • Check for conflicts with other plugins or scripts on the platform.
   Example: The social media sharing buttons were tested on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge to ensure the button colors and icons rendered correctly and were clickable.
2. Usability Testing
   • Evaluate the user experience to ensure widgets are easy to interact with and intuitive.
   • Test widget responsiveness to ensure users can engage with them on both desktop and mobile.
   Example: For the poll widget, users were asked to interact with the poll and submit votes to ensure the response mechanism was simple and fast.
3. Performance Testing
   • Assess the load time and resource usage of the widget to ensure the website’s performance is not negatively impacted.
   • Monitor if widgets slow down page loading or cause any technical glitches.
   Example: The multimedia gallery was tested for load speed, ensuring images loaded quickly and that swiping or clicking between images was smooth on mobile devices.
4. Device-Specific Testing
   • Perform tests on mobile, tablet, and desktop to ensure widgets display correctly and function well across all device types.
   • Test responsiveness and appearance, ensuring no widgets break or misalign on different screen sizes.
   Example: The comment section was tested on mobile devices to ensure comments appeared correctly and that users could post replies without issues.
