Symfony testing tools

The library contains improved classes of WebTestCase and Container for convenient testing.

Features

The Client local caching

Web Client is caching in WebTestCase. If you want to get a client you should use:

$client = static::getClient();

If you want to get a new client you should use:

$client = static::getClient(true);

Full example:

<?php
namespace Foo\BarBundle\Tests\Controller;

use Intaro\SymfonyTestingTools\WebTestCase;

class SomeControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testIndex()
    {
        $client = static::getClient(true);
        //...
    }
}

Shortcuts for EntityManager and Container

You can simply get EntityManager or Container in the current context:

<?php
namespace Foo\BarBundle\Tests\Controller;

use Intaro\SymfonyTestingTools\WebTestCase;

class SomeControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testIndex()
    {
        $client = static::getClient(true);
        
        $em = static::getEntityManager();
        $service = static::getContainer()->get('some_service');
        //...
    }
}

Checking a response HTTP code

You can check response result with the following methods:

<?php

namespace Foo\BarBundle\Tests\Controller;

use Intaro\SymfonyTestingTools\WebTestCase;

class SomeControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testIndex()
    {
        $client = static::getClient();

        $client->request('GET', '/foo/bar/index');
        $this->assertResponseOk($client->getResponse(), 'Page opens');
        $this->assertResponseRedirect($client->getResponse(), 'Page redirects to other page');
        $this->assertResponseNotFound($client->getResponse(), 'Page not found');
        $this->assertResponseForbidden($client->getResponse(), 'Page forbidden');
        $this->assertResponseCode(201, $client->getResponse(), 'JSON returned', 'application/json');
    }
}

Fixtures appending

You can add fixtures before test running:

<?php

namespace Foo\BarBundle\Tests\Controller;

use Foo\BarBundle\DataFixtures\ORM\Test\ActionRecordData;
use Intaro\SymfonyTestingTools\WebTestCase;

class SomeControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public static function setUpBeforeClass()
    {
        static::appendFixture(new ActionRecordData, [
            'purge' => true,
        ]);
    }

    public function testIndex()
    {
        //...
    }
}
