@prathina 

there is no such documentation which says what are ATF limitations.

We only know when we actually start building the test cases.

Hi @prathina,

The nice capabilities with using an ATF is that you can build the test once and use it repeatedly for every patch and upgrade. The downside is that, if you're constantly making changes to the Catalog Item, you'll also need to constantly update the ATF Test so it matches those changes.

From what you've provided and my experience, I can say that you should be able to run through most of what you're looking for potentially without being able to check for Catalog, Category and SubCategory from the portal view.

I hope this helps!
