Test cases for mobile recharge and BBPS bill payment

1. Enter a test prepaid number and wait for the operator and circle
2. Pick a plan and check its price, validity and benefits
3. Pay and wait on the result screen
4. Repeat on Jio, Airtel and Vi SIMs and check each operator's SMS

Expected: Each result shows Recharge successful with the operator's reference. Each operator's SMS on the recharged SIM confirms the same plan and amount.

Why a real phone: Operator confirmation SMS and new validity show up only on real Jio, Airtel or Vi SIMs.

1. Enter test numbers from Jio, Airtel and Vi in different circles
2. Check the operator and circle shown for each
3. Open the plan list for each one

Expected: Each number shows the right operator and circle, and the plan list matches that operator and circle.

1. Enter a test number that moved from one operator to another
2. If the old operator is shown, change the operator and circle by hand
3. Pick a plan and pay

Expected: The plan list reloads for the chosen operator and circle. The recharge is credited by the operator the number now uses.

1. Open the plan list for a test number
2. Switch between categories such as unlimited, data and top-up
3. Open one plan's details

Expected: Each category lists only its own plans. The details show the price, validity, data and other benefits the operator provides.

1. Choose Electricity, pick the test board and enter a consumer number
2. Tap Fetch bill and check the name, bill date, due date and amount
3. Pay the amount and open the receipt

Expected: The fetched bill shows the consumer's name and the amount due before payment. The receipt shows the biller, consumer number, amount and a BBPS transaction reference.

1. Choose DTH, pick the test operator and enter the subscriber ID
2. Check the subscriber name and any amount suggested
3. Repeat with the registered mobile number, if the operator supports it
4. Pay and open the receipt

Expected: Both ways find the same subscriber. The receipt shows the subscriber ID, the amount and the operator's reference.

1. Choose Broadband, pick the test provider and enter the account ID
2. Fetch the bill and check the amount and due date
3. Pay, then fetch the bill again

Expected: The bill shows the amount due before payment. Fetching again shows no pending amount, or says the payment is being updated.

1. Choose FASTag, pick the test issuer and enter a vehicle number
2. Check the tag holder's name and the details fetched
3. Enter an amount and pay

Expected: The fetched details match the test vehicle. The receipt shows the vehicle number, the amount and the issuer's reference.

1. Open a completed recharge and a completed bill payment from history
2. Download each receipt and share one to a messaging app

Expected: Each receipt shows the number or consumer ID, the operator or biller, the amount with lakh grouping, the reference number and the IST date and time. The payment method is masked.

1. Save an electricity biller and a prepaid number with reminders on
2. Wait for a new bill and for the plan to near the end of its validity
3. Tap each reminder

Expected: Each reminder names the biller or number and the due or expiry date. Tapping it opens the right bill or plan list.

Why a real phone: Reminder delivery depends on real push channels and OEM battery savers.

1. Enter nine digits, then eleven digits
2. Enter letters and symbols

Expected: Each one shows an inline error, and plans do not load until a valid 10-digit number is entered.

1. Pick a biller and enter a consumer number with the wrong length or characters
2. Enter a well-formed number that the biller does not recognise

Expected: The malformed number shows the biller's format hint inline. The unknown number shows that no bill was found, and Pay is not offered.

1. Fetch a bill from a test biller that accepts only the exact amount
2. Try to change the amount to less than the bill

Expected: The amount cannot be edited, or the app blocks the change with the biller's rule. Only the exact bill amount can be paid.

1. Type an amount that is not any listed plan's price
2. Tap Recharge

Expected: Before payment, the app says no plan matches and shows what the amount will give or the nearest plans. It does not charge for an amount the operator will reject.

1. Fetch a bill from a test biller set up to be unavailable
2. Retry after the biller is back

Expected: The first attempt says the biller is not responding and offers a retry, with no blank bill or zero amount. The retry fetches the bill normally.

1. Enter a vehicle number in the wrong format, then one with no FASTag
2. Enter a valid vehicle and an amount above the tag's configured limit

Expected: The wrong format shows an inline error, and the unknown vehicle shows that no tag was found. The amount above the limit is blocked before payment.

1. Save test contacts with +91, a leading 0, spaces and dashes in the number
2. Pick each one from the contacts picker
3. Paste one of them into the number field

Expected: Each one becomes the same 10-digit number and the operator is detected. No digit is dropped or added.

1. Use a test number set up so the operator confirms late
2. Pay and stay on the result screen
3. Check history and notifications later

Expected: The screen says the payment succeeded and the recharge is pending, with advice not to pay again. It later shows Successful with the operator's reference, or Failed with a refund.

1. Use a test number set up so the operator rejects the recharge
2. Pay and open the result screen
3. Open the transaction in history

Expected: The result shows that the recharge failed and the refund has started, with a reference. History shows the refund status until it reaches the source account.

1. Fetch a bill from a test biller that accepts part and advance payments
2. Pay less than the bill, then fetch again and pay more than the remainder

Expected: Both payments go through and each receipt shows the amount paid. The next fetch shows the remaining amount or the advance as the biller returns it.

1. Fetch a test bill that has just been paid
2. Fetch a test bill whose due date has passed

Expected: The paid bill shows no pending amount and is not offered for payment again. The overdue bill is marked overdue with the amount the biller returns, including any late charges.

1. Enter a test number from one circle whose SIM is now in another state
2. Check the circle shown and the plans listed

Expected: The app shows the number's home circle, not the state where the phone is, and lists that circle's plans.

1. Recharge a test number with a plan
2. Start the same plan for the same number again straight away

Expected: The app warns that the same recharge was just made and asks the user to confirm before taking payment.

1. Open the plan list and leave it open
2. Have the test plan's price changed in the test setup
3. Pick that plan from the old list and pay

Expected: The app shows the new price before payment, or the recharge fails with a refund and a clear reason. The user is never charged the old price for a plan that no longer applies.

1. Pay for a recharge and turn on airplane mode at once
2. Turn the network back on and open history
3. Repeat, paying just as you walk into a lift or basement

Expected: The app shows Pending or Checking, not Failed, and then the final status. It does not ask the user to pay again while the status is unknown.

Why a real phone: Real dead zones lose packets slowly; an emulator's network cut is instant and clean.

1. On a 3–4 GB RAM phone, choose UPI and pick a UPI app
2. Before the PIN, open a few heavy apps, then return to the UPI app
3. Pay, then reopen the recharge app from the launcher

Expected: The recharge app checks the status on reopening and shows the recharge as pending or successful. It does not ask for payment again.

Why a real phone: Low-RAM phones and OEM memory managers kill background apps during the UPI app switch.

1. Go where the phone shows a weak or 2G signal, with Wi-Fi off
2. Start a bill fetch and wait without tapping anything

Expected: A loading state shows until the bill arrives, or a retry appears after the app's timeout. A half-loaded bill with an empty name or amount never shows with Pay enabled.

Why a real phone: Needs a real SIM on a weak, slow carrier network.

1. Use a SIM whose data pack has run out, with Wi-Fi off
2. Open the app on that SIM's mobile data
3. On a dual-SIM phone, switch mobile data to the other SIM and recharge

Expected: With no data, the app quickly says it is offline and suggests Wi-Fi or the other SIM. After switching, the recharge completes and the first SIM's data works once the plan is applied.

Why a real phone: Needs a real SIM with its data pack used up on a carrier network.

1. Make a recharge that stays pending, then close the app
2. Leave the phone locked until the operator confirms
3. Tap the notification

Expected: A notification says the recharge succeeded or was refunded. Tapping it opens that transaction with its final status.

Why a real phone: Notification delivery with the app closed depends on OEM battery savers.

1. Pay for a recharge
2. Answer an incoming call while the processing screen is showing
3. End the call and return to the app

Expected: The app shows the current status of that payment, not a fresh payment form. No second payment is started.

Why a real phone: Needs a real incoming SIM call over the payment screen.

1. Fetch a bill on Wi-Fi
2. Turn Wi-Fi off just before tapping Pay
3. Complete the payment on mobile data

Expected: The payment completes on mobile data, or shows a clear error with a retry. The bill is not paid twice.

Why a real phone: Needs a real SIM on Jio, Airtel or Vi for the handover.

1. On a dual-SIM phone, open recharge and look for the phone's own numbers
2. Pick the SIM 2 number and recharge

Expected: If the app offers the phone's own numbers, both appear with their correct operators and the recharge goes to the chosen SIM. Otherwise, typing the number works the same way.

Why a real phone: Reading both SIMs' numbers and operators needs two real SIMs.

1. Tap the contacts icon and deny the permission
2. Type a test number by hand and recharge

Expected: The app explains why it asked and links to settings, and the user can still type the number and recharge.

1. Enter a consumer number one digit off, belonging to another test consumer
2. Fetch the bill and read the name
3. Go back and correct the number

Expected: The fetched bill shows the other consumer's name clearly before Pay, so the mistake can be caught. Going back clears the wrong bill.

1. Turn on the app lock and close the app
2. Tap a bill reminder notification

Expected: The app asks for its lock before showing the bill or the payment screen.

1. Save a few billers and recharge numbers
2. Log out, then log in with a different test account

Expected: None of the first account's billers, numbers or history appear in the second account.

1. Turn on TalkBack and open a plan list
2. Move through two plan cards and open one

Expected: Each card is read as one item with its price, validity and data. Buttons such as Recharge are announced with the plan they belong to.

1. Switch the app language to Hindi
2. Open a plan list, fetch a bill and open a receipt

Expected: Labels, plan benefits and statuses appear in Hindi, and biller and consumer names show without broken characters. Amounts keep lakh grouping, such as ₹1,00,000.

1. Set font size and display size to the maximum
2. Open a plan list, pick a plan and open a fetched bill

Expected: Plan prices, validity and the Pay button stay visible without cut-off text, and long biller names wrap.
