+# E2E Testing Suite for Trip Planner
+
+This directory contains end-to-end tests using Selenium WebDriver for the Trip Planner application.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. **Docker Setup (Recommended)**
+   - Docker/Podman installed and running
+   - All services running: `podman-compose -f ../docker-compose.dev.yml up -d`
+
+2. **Local Setup (For visible browser testing)**
+   - Chrome or Chromium browser installed locally
+   - Frontend running on `http://localhost:5173`
+   - Backend running on `http://localhost:8000`
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+cd tests
+npm install
+```
+
+## Running Tests
+
+### Using Docker Selenium (Headless - No visible browser)
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+npm test
+
+# Run all tests in headless mode (explicitly)
+npm run test:headless
+
+# Run authentication tests only
+npm run test:auth
+
+# Run with verbose output
+npm run test:debug
+```
+
+### Using Local Chrome (Visible browser on your machine)
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests with visible browser
+npm run test:local
+
+# Run debug test with visible browser
+npm run test:local:debug
+
+# Run specific test file locally
+HEADLESS=false jest --config jest-local.json e2e/visual-auth.test.js
+```
+
+### Debugging Tests
+
+```bash
+# Simple debug test
+npm run test:debug-simple
+
+# Visual authentication test (slow, with pauses)
+npm run test:local e2e/visual-auth.test.js
+
+# Screenshot test (saves screenshots to tests/screenshots/)
+npm test screenshot.test.js
+```
+

+
+## Environment Variables
+
+- `HEADLESS=true/false` - Run Chrome in headless mode (Docker only)
+- `BASE_URL` - Override default frontend URL (default: http://localhost:5173)
+- `SELENIUM_HUB` - Override Selenium hub URL (default: http://localhost:4444)
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### Tests hang with no browser window
+- You're using Docker Selenium. The browser runs inside a container (invisible)
+- Use `npm run test:local` to see the browser on your machine
+
+### Connection refused errors
+- Ensure all Docker services are running: `podman-compose -f ../docker-compose.dev.yml up -d`
+- Check frontend is accessible: `curl http://localhost:5173`
+- Check backend is accessible: `curl http://localhost:8000`
+
+### Chrome not found (local testing)
+- Install Chrome: https://www.google.com/chrome/
+- Or install Chromium: `sudo dnf install chromium` (Fedora) or `sudo apt install chromium-browser` (Ubuntu)
+
+### Tests can't find auth forms
+- The app uses a single-page auth guard, not separate /login and /register routes
+- Forms are toggled on the same page using buttons
+
+## Writing New Tests
+
+1. Create test file in `e2e/` directory
+2. Use page objects from `pages/` for better maintainability
+3. Add test data to `fixtures/` as needed
+4. Follow the pattern in existing tests
+
+Example:
+```javascript
+const LoginPage = require('../pages/LoginPage');
+
+describe('My New Test', () => {
+  let driver;
+  let loginPage;
+
+  beforeAll(async () => {
+    driver = await global.createDriver();
+    loginPage = new LoginPage(driver);
+  });
+
+  afterAll(async () => {
+    await global.quitDriver(driver);
+  });
+
+  test('should do something', async () => {
+    await loginPage.navigateToLogin();
+    // ... test logic
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## Tips
+
+- Use `npm run test:local` when debugging to see what's happening
+- Use `npm test screenshot.test.js` to capture screenshots when tests fail
+- Add `await driver.sleep(2000)` to slow down tests for debugging
+- Check Docker logs: `podman logs -f trip-planner-selenium-chrome`
