We have some test cases to validate email body content after triggering some emails from our test system. Previously we used UI automation with Gmail and Yahoo, but as we are running our test in different servers (Different IP address) Gmail and Yahoo are asking for the two-factor authentication and human verification which we can't handle from our test automation.

Also we cant use Javax.mail as the SMTP ports are blocked from our firewalls.

So could some please suggest a good email inbox to continue our test without any interruptions.

Solution :

  • Honestly there could be multiple solutions
  • Solution working for me is:
    • I simply use emails with my official domain for automation
    • Hence, no blocking email & hurdle got eliminated
  • Email client for email verification or confirmation:
    • I make a use of email & imaplib python library
    • It will provide multiple methods for you to interact with your inbox and emails inside using exposed APIs
  • Nice, clean and secure way to get raid of email interaction to extent automation reach
