The classical tests of General Relativity, namely, precession of periapsis, deflection of light and time delay serve to establish observational evidence for the theory of general relativity, so they are considered for several spherically symmetric astrophysical objects. In this paper, we investigate a stationary, spherically symmetric wormhole supported by a quintessence polytropic energy satisfying a polytropic equation of state: [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the polytropic index and [Formula: see text] is a positive constant such that [Formula: see text]. The solution of such an equation admits the negative null energy, which is the key ingredient for sustaining traversable wormholes. Motivated by the above-mentioned classical tests, we perform similar studies to explore the range of polytropic index [Formula: see text] which gives us promising results. The advance of periapsis with respect to a test particle and angle of deflection is calculated graphically for those values of [Formula: see text] which cannot be obtained analytically. The time delay has also been calculated numerically and tabulated.
