A home-sharing marketplace: destination autocomplete, a two-month date-range calendar, a guests popover with steppers, results with a list/map toggle and a filters modal, listing pages with a photo gallery, a reserve card with a price breakdown, host profiles in a new tab, a wishlist that needs sign-in and a message-host form.
Your starter code already declares TEST_URL — never hardcode a host.
Objective
The host profile opens in a new browser tab. Read the host verification code there, return to the listing and use the code to verify the host.
Your task
- 1Open TEST_URL and open Casa Azulejo · Alfama Townhouse from Featured stays.
- 2Click “View host profile” (#host-profile-link); it opens in a new tab.
- 3Switch to the new tab, wait for #host-profile-name (“Marta S.”) and read the code in #host-verification-code.
- 4Close the tab and switch back to the listing tab.
- 5Type the code into #verify-host-input, click Verify (#verify-host-button) and assert #host-verify-status contains “Host verified”.
Acceptance criteria
- The verification field holds Marta's code.
- The listing shows “Host verified” and the verified badge.
- The browser ends on the Casa Azulejo listing in the original tab.
- The test makes at least two assertions.
