Fifteen small interactions a visitor will try exactly once

Not every project we take on is a full platform build. Sometimes it's making sure a client's marketing site actually holds up under real-world use before it goes in front of customers. Thesco, a global sourcing company connecting businesses with suppliers in India and China, is one such site: a Next.js build on Vercel with a content-heavy homepage, a multi-step service breakdown, and a contact flow that's meant to turn visitors into leads.

Here's the kind of test pass we run on a site like this: the stuff that's easy to miss in a design review but shows up immediately in real usage.

Navigation & Links

ID	Test Case	Steps	Expected Result
TC-01	Primary nav routes correctly	Click Home, Services, About Us, and Contact Us in the header	Each link loads the correct page without a 404 or layout shift
TC-02	In-page anchor navigation	Click "FAQs" in the header	Page scrolls smoothly to the FAQ section anchor, not a hard jump or dead link
TC-03	"Learn more" links resolve	Click "Learn more" under each of the six offer cards (Sourcing, Custom Solutions, Market Research, Quality Assurance, Logistics & Fulfillment, Trend Analysis)	Each leads to a real destination with relevant content, and none point to # or a blank page
TC-04	Footer social icons are live	Click each social icon in the footer	Each opens the correct social profile in a new tab, and none are unlinked placeholders
TC-05	"Terms & Conditions" footer link	Click the Terms & Conditions link in the footer	Loads an actual terms page, not a dead anchor

Forms & Contact

ID	Test Case	Steps	Expected Result
TC-06	Contact form required-field validation	Submit the contact form with empty fields	Form blocks submission and shows clear inline errors for each required field
TC-07	Contact form success state	Fill the form correctly and click Send	User sees a visible confirmation (message or redirect), not just a silent page reload
TC-08	Phone number tap-to-call	On mobile, tap either listed phone number (+91-7411371115 / +91-1234567890)	Device's dialer opens pre-filled with the number
TC-09	Email link behavior	Click the hello@thesco.in email link	Opens the user's default mail client with the address pre-filled
TC-10	Duplicate/placeholder contact numbers	Review both listed phone numbers	Confirm neither is a leftover placeholder (e.g. a template default like +91-1234567890)

Content & Interactive Elements

ID	Test Case	Steps	Expected Result
TC-11	FAQ accordion expand/collapse	Click each of the 5 FAQ questions	Each expands to show its answer independently, and collapses on second click
TC-12	Marquee animation performance	Watch the repeating "Sourcing Made Smarter" scroll banner for 60+ seconds	Animation loops seamlessly with no stutter, layout jump, or memory creep on longer sessions
TC-13	Numbered process sections render in order	Check the "Custom Solutions" (1–6) and "Logistics & Fulfillment" (1–6) numbered lists	Numbers and content stay correctly paired at all breakpoints, with no reflow that separates a number from its heading

Performance & Assets

ID	Test Case	Steps	Expected Result
TC-14	Large background image load time	Load the homepage on a throttled 3G connection and time the hero/background image render	Background image (served at up to 3840px wide) loads progressively or is appropriately compressed, and doesn't block first paint
TC-15	Image srcset correctness	Inspect served image sizes on mobile vs. desktop viewports	Next.js image optimization serves an appropriately sized asset per device, not the full 3840w image to a phone
TC-16	Lighthouse performance baseline	Run a Lighthouse audit against the homepage	Performance score meets an agreed threshold (e.g. 85+) despite the image-heavy design

Responsive & Accessibility

ID	Test Case	Steps	Expected Result
TC-17	Mobile nav collapse	Resize to a mobile viewport and open the navigation	Menu collapses into an accessible hamburger/drawer pattern, with no horizontal overflow
TC-18	Heading hierarchy	Audit the DOM for h1–h4 usage across the page	Headings follow a logical order for screen readers, with no skipped levels
TC-19	Contrast on background-image sections	Check text contrast on sections layered over bg-container.webp and the ship/container images	Text meets WCAG AA contrast regardless of what part of the underlying image sits behind it

Why this matters

A sourcing company's website is often a prospective client's first interaction with the brand, before a single email or call. A broken "Learn more" link or a contact form that fails silently doesn't just look sloppy, it costs a lead. Testing content-heavy marketing sites like this isn't about edge cases; it's about making sure the fifteen small interactions a real visitor will actually try all work exactly once, the first time.

This is the same bar we hold every client site to at Rise Digital India.
