How to test email communication automated ?

[Andreas]

HI,

I would require to use email communication as part of my automated tests. This is, register at the test side, open the sent email to click the verification link and then login etc.

I found http://qamail.ala.se (https://github.com/naushniki/qamail) and an example https://www.testingexcellence.com/automated-api-testing-emails-karate, but it does not work for me when trying to do it in Java.

So I was thinking that I cannot be the only person having this issue, so I was wondering, what solutions you are using or which you can point me to ?

Thank you

Hi @bygones, in order to verify your email, you can implement the above-mentioned process flow with the help of  ‘JavaMail API’. Here is an example to help you with this http://angiejones.tech/test-automation-to-verify-email/

Mailosaur & Postmarkapp are the alternatives if you like to give out a try but they are not free

Send to an internal email server and an email address that you own, manage, control. You need to ensure that when you test that your email is both deliverable and also that you are within the terms of use of any email system you so choose. I always use this software – https://www.atompark.com/manuals/atomic-mail-sender/go-spam/ very easy to manage.
