Key Test Cases for Cookie Behavior:
Disabling Cookies:
Test the website's core functionality with cookies disabled. Manual Cookie Editing: Modify cookie parameters using Dev Tools to check for unexpected behavior. Encryption Verification: Ensure sensitive data like usernames and passwords in cookies are encrypted. Cross-Browser Testing:
Verify cookie behavior across multiple browsers using tools like LambdaTest.
Privacy and Data Sensitivity:
Ensure compliance with privacy policies, especially avoiding storage of sensitive data in cookies.
Verify that cookies created by one website are inaccessible to others.
Cookie Persistence and Expiration:
Check cookie types (e.g., session vs. persistent) and their expiration dates.
Ensure expiration dates refresh as expected for persistent cookies during session activities.
User-Specific Cookies:
Test cookies' behavior for different users to ensure data isolation.
Environment Consistency:
Validate cookie acceptability across different environments, paying attention to wildcard paths or super cookies.
