PHPUnit testing support in Moodle
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation
|
|
-------------
|
|
* [Moodle PHPUnit integration](http://docs.moodle.org/dev/PHPUnit)
|
|
* [PHPUnit online documentation](http://www.phpunit.de/manual/current/en/)
|
|
* [Composer dependency manager](http://getcomposer.org/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Composer installation
|
|
---------------------
|
|
Composer is a dependency manager for PHP projects.
|
|
It installs PHP libraries into /vendor/ subdirectory inside your moodle dirroot.
|
|
|
|
1. install Composer - [http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md](http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md)
|
|
2. install PHUnit and dependencies - go to your Moodle dirroot and execute `php composer.phar install`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure your server
|
|
---------------------
|
|
You need to create a new dataroot directory and specify a separate database prefix for the test environment,
|
|
see config-dist.php for more information.
|
|
|
|
* add `$CFG->phpunit_prefix = 'phpu_';` to your config.php file
|
|
* and `$CFG->phpunit_dataroot = '/path/to/phpunitdataroot';` to your config.php file
|
|
|
|
|
|
Initialise the test environment
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
Before first execution and after every upgrade the PHPUnit test environment needs to be initialised,
|
|
this command also builds the phpunit.xml configuration files.
|
|
|
|
* execute `php admin/tool/phpunit/cli/init.php`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Execute tests
|
|
--------------
|
|
* execute `vendor/bin/phpunit` from dirroot directory
|
|
* you can execute a single test case class using class name followed by path to test file `vendor/bin/phpunit core_phpunit_basic_testcase lib/tests/phpunit_test.php`
|
|
* it is also possible to create custom configuration files in xml format and use `vendor/bin/phpunit -c mytestsuites.xml`
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to add more tests?
|
|
----------------------
|
|
1. create `tests/` directory in your add-on
|
|
2. add test file, for example `local/mytest/tests/my_test.php` file with `local_my_testcase` class that extends `basic_testcase` or `advanced_testcase`
|
|
3. add some test_*() methods
|
|
4. execute your new test case `vendor/bin/phpunit local_my_testcase local/mytest/tests/my_test.php`
|
|
5. execute `php admin/tool/phpunit/cli/init.php` to get the plugin tests included in main phpunit.xml configuration file
|

Windows support

|
|
* use `\` instead of `/` in paths in examples above
