Is this a known issue,

when registering a patient, having filled in their name, Sex, Age and D.O.B, i try searching for an address, when i search for an address(even with a non existent address) and hit enter, the patient is registered immediately without me hitting the registration button

“Hi @tendomart and everyone! I’m joining the testing effort for the Release Candidate. I’ve been working on automation testing with Selenium and Java, and I’d love to help verify the patient registration bug mentioned here. I’ll start by following the Manual QA Guide and the Checklist provided. Happy to contribute to a solid release!”

Hello Community

I recently completed manual QA testing of the latest Release Candidate on test3.openmrs.org using the mobile view. My testing mainly focused on patient registration, vitals recording, and form entry.

Testing details:

  • Environment: test3.openmrs.org (mobile view)
  • Credentials used: admin / Admin123
  • Total test cases executed: 24
  • Result: 23 passed, 1 issue observed

Observations during testing:

  • Patient registration worked smoothly and the OpenMRS ID was generated instantly.
  • The demographic information entered during registration (name, gender, age) appeared correctly in the patient chart header.
  • Recording vitals such as temperature, blood pressure, and SpO₂ worked as expected.
  • Visit Notes and AMPATH forms were saved and edited successfully without issues.

Issue noticed: While testing the Vitals form, I observed that some required fields do not immediately show a validation message when left empty. This might make it slightly unclear for users while submitting the form. Test Case Automation for OpenMRS.pdf (18.2 KB)

I have documented the test cases and results in an Excel sheet.

I am also starting to automate some of these scenarios using Selenium with Java and Cucumber to build a small regression suite for these workflows.

Please let me know if there are other areas where I can help with testing. I’m happy to continue contributing.

Best regards, Vishnu Vardhan
