Test Artifacts Created

1. Playwright Test Script

Location: /playwright-e2e/tests/phase3/tc-rbac-001-role-management.spec.ts

Automated test covering all 4 scenarios of TC_RBAC_001.

To Run:

cd /Users/rickaqui/Documents/Zeniark/projects/membervu

npx playwright test tests/phase3/tc-rbac-001-role-management.spec.ts --project=chromium --reporter=list

3. Bug Reports

BUG-PHASE3-001: Quick Login Doesn't Apply Role Changes

Location: /tester-files/BUG-PHASE3-001.md

Severity: P3 - Minor

Component: RBAC/Permissions

Issue: Quick Login buttons use cached/preset roles and don't reflect recent role changes.

Workaround: Log in manually with email and password fields instead of Quick Login buttons.

BUG-PHASE3-002: Role Naming Inconsistency

Location: /tester-files/BUG-PHASE3-002.md

Severity: P3 - Minor

Component: RBAC/Permissions

Issue:

Recommendation: Standardize naming across codebase and documentation.

Key Findings

✅ What Works Well

  1. Role Assignment/Removal: Smooth workflow via Actions > Manage Roles
  2. Immediate Effect: Role changes take effect immediately after login
  3. Visual Feedback: Role badges on profile make roles visible at a glance
  4. Multi-Role Support: Users can have multiple roles simultaneously
  5. Permission Granularity: Detailed permission matrix with CRUD controls

⚠️ Issues Found

  1. Quick Login Limitation: Doesn't reflect updated roles (use manual login instead)
  2. Documentation Mismatch: Some role names differ between UI and documentation
  3. Missing Role: EXPIRED_MEMBER role not visible (may be status vs role)

📋 Observations

Test Coverage

Completed (TC_RBAC_001)

Not Yet Tested (Out of Scope)

Recommendations

For Development Team

  1. Fix Quick Login: Make Quick Login query current user roles from database
  2. Standardize Naming: Resolve PENDING_PAYMENT vs PENDING_MEMBER inconsistency
  3. Clarify EXPIRED_MEMBER: Document if it's a status or a role

For Testing Team

  1. Continue Phase 3: Execute TC_RBAC_002 and TC_RBAC_003
  2. Use Manual Login: When testing role changes, avoid Quick Login buttons
  3. Reference Files: Use created Playwright script as baseline for future tests

For Documentation Team

  1. Update Test Data: Align 00_MASTER_TEST_DATA.md with actual system roles
  2. Document Limitation: Add note about Quick Login using demo presets
  3. Role Matrix: Create visual role-permission matrix diagram

How to Re-Run Tests

Option 1: Run Playwright Script (Automated)

cd /Users/rickaqui/Documents/Zeniark/projects/membervu


Run all Phase 3 tests


npx playwright test tests/phase3/ --project=chromium --reporter=list



Run TC_RBAC_001 only


npx playwright test tests/phase3/tc-rbac-001-role-management.spec.ts --project=chromium --reporter=list



Run with UI mode for debugging


npx playwright test tests/phase3/tc-rbac-001-role-management.spec.ts --ui

Option 2: Manual Testing (Follow Execution Report)

  1. Open /tester-files/PHASE3_TC_RBAC_001_EXECUTION_REPORT.md
  2. Follow step-by-step instructions for each scenario
  3. Use credentials from 00_MASTER_TEST_DATA.md
  4. Compare results with expected outcomes in report

Next Steps

Immediate (Phase 3 Continuation)

  1. Execute TC_RBAC_002: Permission Assignment
  1. Execute TC_RBAC_003: Full Access Control Matrix

Future (Post-Phase 3)

  1. Phase 4: Communications (TC_COMM_001 - TC_COMM_007)
  2. Phase 5: Dues Management & Reporting
  3. Phase 6: Edge Cases & Validation
  4. Phase 7: Guest Portal

Sign-Off

TC_RBAC_001: ✅ COMPLETE (4/4 scenarios passed)

Issues Logged: 2 (both P3 - Minor)

Blocker Issues: None

Ready For: TC_RBAC_002 & TC_RBAC_003

Notes:

All core role management functionality works correctly. Minor issues found are UX-related and do not block production use. The Playwright test script can be integrated into CI/CD pipeline for regression testing.
