Introduction

This Bundle provides base classes for functional tests to assist in setting up test-databases, loading fixtures and html5 validation. It also provides a DI aware mock builder for unit tests.

Installation

If you plan on loading fixtures with your tests, make sure you have the DoctrineFixturesBundle installed and configured first.

Doctrine Fixtures setup and configuration instructions

Add this bundle to your project as Git submodule:

 $ git submodule add git://github.com/liip/LiipFunctionalTestBundle.git vendor/bundles/Liip/FunctionalTestBundle

Or configure your deps to include the bundle:

 [LiipFunctionalTestBundle]
     git=git://github.com/liip/LiipFunctionalTestBundle.git
     target=bundles/Liip/FunctionalTestBundle

Add the Liip namespace to your autoloader:

 // app/autoload.php
 $loader->registerNamespaces(array(
       'Liip' => __DIR__.'/../vendor/bundles',
       // your other namespaces
 ));

Add this bundle to your application's kernel:

 // application/ApplicationKernel.php
 public function registerBundles()
 {
     // ...
     if (in_array($this->getEnvironment(), array('dev', 'test'))) {              
         $bundles[] = new Liip\FunctionalTestBundle\LiipFunctionalTestBundle();
     );
     return $bundles;
 }

Configure the functionalTest service, and ensure that the framework is using the filesystem for session storage:

 # application/config/config_test.yml
 framework:
     test: ~
     session:
         storage_id: session.storage.filesystem

 liip_functional_test: ~

Copy the fixtures to your projects functional tests
```
$ cp Fixtures/LoadUserData.php ..
```

Copy example unit and functional tests to your projects functional tests

$ cp Tests/ExampleUnitTest.php ..
$ cp FunctionalTests/ExampleFunctionalTest.php ..
$ cp FunctionalTests/ExampleHtml5FunctionalTest.php ..

Install local copy of the HTML5 validator
```

```

Database tests

In case tests require database access make sure that the DB is created and proxies are generated. For tests that rely on specific database contents, write fixture classes and call loadFixtures from the bundled Test\WebTestCase class. This will replace the database configured in config_test.yml with the specified fixtures. Please note that you should be using a designated test-database if you're using test-fixtures, since loadFixtures will delete the contents from the database before loading the fixtures.

Tips for fixture loading tests

If you want your tests to run against a completely isolated database (which is recommended for most functional-tests), you can configure your test-environment to use a sqlite-database. This will make your tests run faster and will create a fresh, predictable database for every test you run.

Add this to your app/config_test.yml:
```
 doctrine:
     dbal:
         default_connection: default
         connections:
             default:
                 driver:   pdo_sqlite
                 path:     %kernel.cache_dir%/test.db
```
Use LiipFunctionalBundle's cached database feature, so that your tests run even faster. This will create backups of the initial databases (with all fixtures loaded) and re-load them when required.

Attention: you need Doctrine >= 2.2 to use this feature.

Add this to your app/config_test.yml
```
 liip_functional_test:
     cache_sqlite_db: true
```

Load your doctrine fixtures in your tests:

 use Liip\FunctionalTestBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

 class MyControllerTest extends WebTestCase
 {
     public function testIndex()
     {
         $client = static::createClient();

         // add all your doctrine fixtures classes
         $classes = array(
             // classes implementing Doctrine\Common\DataFixtures\FixtureInterface
             'Bamarni\MainBundle\DataFixtures\ORM\LoadData',
             'Me\MyBundle\DataFixtures\ORM\LoadData'
         );

         $this->loadFixtures($classes);

         // you can now run your functional tests with a populated database
         // ...
     }
 }

If you don't need any fixtures to be loaded and just want to start off with an empty database (initialized with your schema), you can simply pass an empty array to loadFixtures.

 use Liip\FunctionalTestBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

 class MyControllerTest extends WebTestCase
 {
     public function testIndex()
     {
         $client = static::createClient();

         $this->loadFixtures(array());

         // you can now run your functional tests with an empty database
         // ...
     }
 }

HTML5 validator

The on-line validator: http://validator.nu/ The documentation: http://about.validator.nu/ Documentation about the web service: http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Validator.nu_Web_Service_Interface

Dependencies

To run the validator you require the following dependencies:

A java JDK 5 or later
Python
SVN
Mercurial

Note: The script wants to see a Sun-compatible jar executable. Debian fastjar will not work.

Compilation and execution

Before starting:

Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the root of the installed JDK
Add the location of "javac" to your PATH ($JAVA_HOME/bin).
Alternatively you can use the --javac=/usr/bin/javac parameter of the build.py script.

Then:

mkdir checker
cd checker
svn co https://whattf.svn.cvsdude.com/build/trunk/ build
python build/build.py all
python build/build.py all

Note: Yes, the last line is there twice intentionally. Running the script twice tends to fix a ClassCastException on the first run.

Note: If at some point for some reason the compilation fails and you are forced to re-run it, it may be necessary to manually remove the htmlparser directory from your disk (the compilation process will complain about that).

This will download the necessary components, compile the validator and run it. This will require about 10min on the first run.

Once the validator is executed it can be reached at [http://localhost:8888/]

Execution

Once the validator has been compiled, it can be run with the following command:

cd checker
python build/build.py run

Using the validator in functional tests

The Liip\FunctionalTestBundle\Test\Html5WebTestCase class allows to write functional tests that validate content against the HTML5 validator. In order to work the validator service must be running on the machine where the tests are executed.

This class provides the following testing methods:

validateHtml5: This runs a validation on the provided content and returns the full messages of the validation service (including warnings and information). This method is not meant as a test method but rather as a helper to access the validator service. Internally the test method below will use this helper to access the validation service.

assertIsValidHtml5: This will validate the provided content. If the validation succeeds, execution silently continues, otherwise the calling test will fail and display a list of validation errors.

assertIsValidHtml5Snippet: This will validate an HTML5 snippets (i.e. not a full HTML5 document) by wrapping it into an HTML5 document. If the validation succeeds, execution silently continues, otherwise the calling test will fail and display a list of validation errors.

assertIsValidHtml5AjaxResponse: This will validate an AJAX response in a specific format (probably not generic enough). If the validation succeeds, execution silently continues, otherwise the calling test will fail and display a list of validation errors.

setHtml5Wrapper: Allow to change the default HTML5 code that is used as a wrapper around snippets to validate
