      <description>&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Introduction
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://cars.ng" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Cars.ng&lt;/a&gt; is an online platform for buying, and selling vehicles in Nigeria. It connects buyers with sellers, offering features such as car listings, search filters etc.&lt;br&gt;
This exploratory test aimed to assess the platform’s usability, functionality, and performance to identify potential issues that could impact user experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Methodology
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test Approach: Session-based exploratory testing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test Environment:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Device: Windows 10, Android 13&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Browsers: Chrome (v120)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Network: 4G mobile data, Wi-Fi (50 Mbps)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Scope &amp;amp; Focus Areas:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Search and filtering functionality&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Car listing details and images&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;User registration and login&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Contact Seller&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Findings
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There were a number of bugs/issues identified while exploring the &lt;a href="https://cars.ng" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Cars.ng&lt;/a&gt; site, these were well documented as seen in the &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zgdR5BvKUVbL78o36_sHsegwLgFRNCBBbme4zs4N8M8/edit?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Bug report&lt;/a&gt;. Worth of note is that, two of the bugs/issues identified belongs to the critical severity category.&lt;br&gt;
One or two scenarios observed were non relevant pictures being uploaded for a vehicle listing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Recommendation
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zgdR5BvKUVbL78o36_sHsegwLgFRNCBBbme4zs4N8M8/edit?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;recommendation report&lt;/a&gt; herein highlights functions and features that can be improved. &lt;/p&gt;
