Issue summary
Test cases repeat the same actions on different data
Category
Design
Examples
- Test cases have the same structure, for instance entering a customer with his address, but use different values
Questions
Are the test cases really similar?
Resolving Patterns
Most recommended:
- DATA-DRIVEN TESTING: this pattern is one of the most applied on the field (even if nobody knows that it's a pattern!)
Other useful patterns:
- DON'T REINVENT THE WHEEL: applying this pattern will help you develop reusable testware
- REFACTOR THE TESTWARE: re-design the tests so that they are more efficient
