#wcAth2016 Δημήτρης Μήτσης Αυτοματοποιημένα test με το CodeCeption
Δημήτρης Μήτσης WPML DEVELOPMENT • QUALITY ASSURANCE • PERFORMANCE TESTING
AUTOMATED TESTING • Use of special software to compare the
actual output of an application with the one we expect
Manual tests Integration tests Unit Tests
NEEDS FOR AUTOMATED TESTING • Expedite procedure of quality control
• Quick releases • Integration with WordPress • Integration with 3rd party plugins
UNIT-TEST • TEST DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT (TDD) • PHPUnit Unit testing:
tests if specific parts of the application output the expected result for a given input
BENEFITS OF UNIT-TESTS • Enforce coding standards • Full awareness
of the stack-trace Avoid phrases like: “Works but I don’t know why” White-box testing
2 UnitTests – 0 Integration tests
• Avoid regressions (re-appearance of the same bug) • Ensure
that existing functionality remains • Frequency of updates SIMPLE NEEDS FOR AUTOMATED TESTING
