This directory contains various tests for the advanced applications.
Tests in codeception
directory are developed with Codeception PHP Testing Framework.
After creating and setting up the advanced application, follow these steps to prepare for the tests:
- Install Codeception if it's not yet installed:
composer global require "codeception/codeception=2.1.*" "codeception/specify=*" "codeception/verify=*"
If you've never used Composer for global packages run composer global status
. It should output:
Changed current directory to <directory>
Then add <directory>/vendor/bin
to you PATH
environment variable. Now you're able to use codecept
from command
line globally.
- Install faker extension by running the following from template root directory where
composer.json
is:
composer require --dev yiisoft/yii2-faker:*
- Create a database for tests, adjust the
components['db']
configuration intests/codeception/config/config-local.php
, then update it by applying migrations:
codeception/bin/yii migrate
- In order to be able to run acceptance tests you need to start a webserver. The simplest way is to use PHP built in
webserver. In the root directory where
common
,frontend
etc. are execute the following:
php -S localhost:8080
- Now you can run the tests with the following commands, assuming you are in the
tests/codeception
directory:
# frontend tests
cd frontend
codecept build
codecept run
# backend tests
cd backend
codecept build
codecept run
# etc.
If you already have run codecept build
for each application, you can skip that step and run all tests by a single codecept run
.
