Michael Bodnarchuk BEYOND TESTING
WHO AM I • Michael Bodnarchuk @davert • Web-developer from
Kyiv, Ukraine • Lead developer of Codeception testing framework and other OS tools like: Robo, AspectMock, etc
WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT • What to do when
PHPUnit is installed and first tests are done • What you should know writing a test • Choosing the best tool for testing • Creating test environment
KINDS OF TESTS • Acceptance • Functional • Integration •
Unit
BEST PRACTICES SOME KIND OF
IDEAL TEST ▪Condition (Given) ▪Action (When) ▪Assertion (Then)
HOW TO WRITE TEST • Separate configuration from test •
Do not use hierarchy for testcases (use traits when needed) • Separate test code from support code • Make test simple and verbose
DON'T DO IT THIS WAY move to configuration use traits
IMPLEMENT YOUR OWN ASSERTIONS custom assertions make code more readable
MAKE IT SIMPLER!
WHAT IS HARD TO TEST • Asynchronous stuff • Remote
Services • Real Data
TESTS CRITERIA • Execution Stability ↓ • Stability to Changes
↑ • Speed ↓ • Coverage ↑ • Preciseness ↓ • Readability ↕ Unit => Integration => Functional => Acceptance
PRICE OF A FAULT REGRESSION TESTS
DATA MANAGEMENT HOW TO TEST DB INTERACTION
MANAGING TEST DATA WITH • Fixtures (nelmio/alice) • Dumps •
Factories (thephpleague/factory-muffin)
FACTORY_MUFFIN IN REAL LIFE
DATA CLEANUP STRATEGIES • Manually create/delete data between tests •
Recreate the database between tests • Using transactions – reverting changes with rollback
TOOLS FOR TESTING YOU SHOULD PROBABLY KNOW
PHPUNIT • Standard de-facto • Monolithic framework • Two mocking
engines included (why not 3?) • JUnit, HTML, reports... and codecoverage • And other 100500 sometimes used features
PHPSPEC • TDD framework • Classes are generated from tests
• Dependencies are described through mocking • Does not replace PHPUnit • For development, not for testing
BEHAT • BDD-framework • Ubiquitous language (Gherkin) • Acceptance testing
via Mink (Selenium, Goutte, etc)
CODECEPTION • BDD-style testing framework • Scenario DSL for describing
tests • Over 20 modules to cover the most of possible cases • Testing via Selenium, PhpBrowser, frameworks...
TESTING EMAILS: MAILCATCHER
MAILCATCHER • Ruby application with web interface • SMTP-mock •
Provides REST API for sent emails • API can be used in tests • Alternative in Go - MailHog
TESTING WEB APPLICATIONS • Selenium • PhantomJS • Browser emulation
via HTTP client
USING SELENIUM ON CI SERVER • Selenium Server • Xvfb
– Virtual Framebuffer • Firefox or Chromium
INSTEAD OF CONFIGURING IT MANUALLY docker run -d -p 4444:4444
-e APP_HOST=myapp davert/selenium-env
WHAT IS DOCKER? • Docker is an open platform distributed
apps • Runs and manages isolated Linux containers • Provides GitHub-like infrastructure
PARALLEL TESTING • Tests separation • Jobs isolation
HOW TO PARALLEL TESTS WITH DOCKER • Build container(s) for
test environment • Run container(s) with Docker Compose • Use Jenkins Matrix to run concurrent builds
docker run -i -t -v $WORKSPACE:/project test_container ./runtests.sh $SUITE
CONCLUSIONS • Testing is not just about unit tests •
Tests are code: make them easy to read and maintain • Testing is about tools, environment and infrastructure as well
