No Interventions Between Test Steps

It is a common practice to connect with the database and make assertions. You should avoid doing multiple things in the test script.

A test script is a set of user steps. The user inputs something and expects something out of it. The user does not connect with the database or any other third-party system. It is the job of the API to do all these things, or some background process that runs based on the API call and provides results to the API.

It is good to avoid the highlighted code:public class ContactListTest {

public void contactListTest () {

login();

// some steps here

assertThat(actualResult).equals(expectedResult);

connect.db().getValues();

assertThat(value1).equals.equals(value2);

connect.shell().retrieveValues();

logout();

}

}
