Leave requests

A simple app where employees submit leave requests (annual, sick or unpaid) with dates and a note, and managers review pending requests and approve or reject them with a comment. Employees only see their own requests and their status; managers see every request.

• Leave requests by type
• Approve or reject with a comment
• Employees see only their own
• Pending list for managers

Every scenario below is turned into an automated test. The app has to pass all of them, in a clean environment, before anyone signs in. Your changes get the same treatment.

• Employee

  Given an employee is signed in, when they create a Leave Request with type annual, start date 2030-07-01, end date 2030-07-05 and note 'Summer holiday', then the Leave Request appears in their list with status pending.

• Employee

  Given an employee is signed in, when they submit a Leave Request with end date 2030-07-01 before start date 2030-07-05, then a validation error is shown and the Leave Request is not saved.

• Employee

  Given two employees, jane@example.com and sam@example.com, have each submitted a Leave Request, when jane@example.com opens the Leave Requests list, then she sees only her own Leave Request and not the one submitted by sam@example.com.

• Employee

  Given an employee has a pending Leave Request, when they open it for editing, then no Approve or Reject action is available and the status cannot be changed by them.

This is the description the plan above was written from. Change it to match how your business works — or describe something else entirely.

“Leave requests for our staff. An employee submits a leave request with type (annual, sick, unpaid), start date, end date and a note. Managers approve or reject requests with a comment. Employees see only their own requests and their status (pending, approved, rejected); managers see all requests and a list of pending ones to review.”
