01 / OPEN THE BOX

A small shop.
A proper testing challenge.

One complete practice loop: understand the requirements, test the app, document what you find, then review your approach.

THE APPLICATION

Meet Pebble & Pine.

Offline & ready

A fictional store with real testing questions. Explore products, cart quantities, search, filters, delivery charges and discount rules.

YOUR ROADMAPPDF + HTML

The Workbook

34 pages of tasks, requirements and review criteria. Twelve exercises, also supplied individually.

YOUR SECOND OPINIONPDF + HTML

The Answer Book

40 pages of worked solutions and reasoning. Attempt the task first; compare your approach afterwards.

YOUR TOOLKITHTML + TXT

8 editable templates

Test cases, bug reports, exploratory sessions, decision tables and more. Edit, save a copy, make it yours.

Also included: independent requirements, a getting-started guide, individual exercise PDFs and example test evidence.

A SIMPLE WAY TO START

Unzip.
Open.
Investigate.

No setup rabbit hole.
No coding required.

  1. 01

    Open your practice space

    Extract the ZIP on your computer and open START-HERE.html in your browser. Launch the shop from there.

  2. 02

    Think like a tester

    Read the requirements, build test cases, try unexpected inputs and record what actually happens.

  3. 03

    Compare. Question. Try again.

    Use the separate solutions to review your coverage and reasoning. There's more than one useful way to test.

02 / YOUR PRACTICE PLAN

Twelve exercises.
A sharper eye for detail.

From the first boundary check to combinations of business rules. Open a topic to see what you'll practise.

01—04 BUILD YOUR FOUNDATIONS

01Free delivery threshold

Choose boundary values, compare expected and actual delivery costs, and document a reproducible mismatch.

02Product information

Check the six products against reference data. Compare product IDs, names and unit prices in the cart.

03Add & merge cart items

Test repeated additions, different products and cart states using clear input groups and repeatable cases.

04Quantity limits & validation

Explore valid and invalid input, the quantity limits, and differences between typing, buttons and repeated Add actions.

05—08 FOLLOW THE DETAILS

05Cart counts & line totals

Compare cart quantities with the item badge and line totals. Separate counting problems from money calculations.

06Cart arithmetic in cents

Calculate expected amounts independently, then check unit prices, subtotals and totals using exact cents.

07Removal & recalculation

Remove products from different cart states. Check remaining rows, recalculated delivery and the empty cart.

08Reset & test independence

Build repeatable starting conditions and check that reset and reload clear the expected state.

09—12 CONNECT THE DOTS

09A focused exploratory session

Use a testing charter, follow observations, separate hypotheses from facts, and write a concise debrief.

10Keyboard & layout review

Review keyboard navigation, visible focus and desktop layouts. Record scope and limits without claiming a full accessibility audit.

11Search & filtering

Test literal searches, categories, no-result states and filter interactions with products already in the cart.

12Discount rule combinations

Use decision tables to check SAVE10, rounding, coupon state changes and delivery before discount.

Not every exercise hides a new bug. Learning to verify correct behaviour matters, too.

03 / GIVE IT A GO

FREE MINI EXERCISE · ABOUT 2 MINUTES

One cent.
Different outcome?

The shop promises free delivery on orders of $50.00 or more. Below that, delivery is $4.99.

For each nonempty cart, choose the delivery charge you expect. No coupon is applied.

A shortened example of Exercise 01. The full kit takes you from designing these checks to running them in the app and documenting your findings.

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Know what you're getting before you start.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. The exercises focus on manual testing. You open the application in a browser, interact with it, and record your findings using the supplied templates.

What do I need to run the kit?

A desktop computer, a JavaScript-enabled browser and a PDF viewer. The supplied kit was tested on Windows with Chrome at desktop viewports. Other operating systems and browsers are not yet verified. A phone or tablet is not the intended practice environment.

Does it really work offline?

Yes. After downloading and extracting the ZIP, the practice app and materials work locally. There is no server, account or installation required for the kit. The fictional shop has no real checkout or payments.

Are the solutions included?

Yes. You receive a separate 40-page Answer Book and individual solutions in HTML and PDF. Keep them closed until you've attempted the exercise. They show worked examples and reasoning, not a single answer you must memorise.

Can I save my work?

You can edit the HTML templates in your browser and use “Save edited copy” to download your answers. Plain TXT versions are included too. Edits are not saved automatically. The practice shop itself resets when reloaded; it does not store your cart or progress.

Is this a full QA course or a certification?

No. This is a focused self-study practice kit for manual testing, with 12 exercises. It does not include video lessons, personal mentoring, certification, job placement, API testing or test automation.

How do I receive it, and where do I buy?

The purchase buttons take you to the product listing on Payhip. The total price is $9 USD, including tax, with a one-time payment and no subscription. After a completed purchase, download the ZIP, extract the full folder and open START-HERE.html. Review the price, seller details and applicable purchase terms on Payhip before ordering.
