Codeception module for working with Alice/Faker fixtures in conjunction with AliceBundle.

This is an early prototype. Feedback is welcome.

Installation:

composer require alsbury/malice

Configure Codeception Test Suites

Add module to codeception test suite YAML file:

class_name: FunctionalTester
modules:
   enabled:
    - Symfony2:
        app_path: '../../../app'
        var_path: '../../../var'
        environment: 'test'
    - \Component\Registration\Tests\Helper\Functional
    - \Alsbury\Malice\Component\Codeception\Module\Malice:
        drop_create: true

Example test that loads fixtures defined in a bundle, specified by Doctrine annotations:

<?php

use Alsbury\Malice\Component\Annotation\Fixture;

/**
 * @Fixture("MyBundle:Foo.yml")
 * @Fixture("MyBundle:Bar.yml")
 * @Fixture("AnotherBundle:AnotherFoo.yml")
 */
class AccountCreatorTest extends \Codeception\TestCase\Test
{
    /**
     * @Fixture("MyBundle:MethodSpecificFoo.yml")
     */
    public function testNothing()
    {
        $this->assertEquals(true, true);
    }

    public function testSomeOtherNothing()
    {
        $this->assertEquals(true,true);
    }
}            

Setup fixtures per the hautelook/alice-bundle spec. Fixtures definition files Foo.yml are expected to be in the directory DataFixtures/ORM in the specific bundle directory. Each fixture needs to have its own annotation as noted in the sample above, containing the bundle name, followed by a colon, then the fixture yaml file MyBundle:Foo.yml. Fixture annotations for the class will apply to all methods in that class. Fixture annotations for a method will be added to the class fixtures for that specific test only.

Fixture environments are not currently supported.

Requirements

• Symfony 2 or 3
• Codeception 2.1+ with Symfony 2 module
• hautelook/alice-bundle
