If you are not familiar -with the concept you might do a little googling on the subject. - -CodeIgniter's Unit Test class is quite simple, consisting of an -evaluation function and two result functions. It's not intended to be a -full-blown test suite but rather a simple mechanism to evaluate your -code to determine if it is producing the correct data type and result. - -.. contents:: - :local: - -.. raw:: html - -
- -****************************** -Using the Unit Testing Library -****************************** - -Initializing the Class -====================== - -Like most other classes in CodeIgniter, the Unit Test class is -initialized in your controller using the $this->load->library function:: - - $this->load->library('unit_test'); - -Once loaded, the Unit Test object will be available using ``$this->unit`` - -Running Tests -============= - -Running a test involves supplying a test and an expected result in the -following way: - - $this->unit->run('test', 'expected result', 'test name', 'notes'); - -Where test is the result of the code you wish to test, expected result -is the data type you expect, test name is an optional name you can give -your test, and notes are optional notes. Example:: - - $test = 1 + 1; - - $expected_result = 2; - - $test_name = 'Adds one plus one'; - - $this->unit->run($test, $expected_result, $test_name); - -The expected result you supply can either be a literal match, or a data -type match. Here's an example of a literal:: - - $this->unit->run('Foo', 'Foo'); - -Here is an example of a data type match:: - - $this->unit->run('Foo', 'is_string'); - -Notice the use of "is_string" in the second parameter? This tells the -function to evaluate whether your test is producing a string as the -result. Here is a list of allowed comparison types: - -- is_object -- is_string -- is_bool -- is_true -- is_false -- is_int -- is_numeric -- is_float -- is_double -- is_array -- is_null -- is_resource - -Generating Reports -================== - -You can either display results after each test, or your can run several -tests and generate a report at the end. To show a report directly simply -echo or return the run function:: - - echo $this->unit->run($test, $expected_result); - -To run a full report of all tests, use this:: - - echo $this->unit->report(); - -The report will be formatted in an HTML table for viewing. If you prefer -the raw data you can retrieve an array using:: - - echo $this->unit->result(); - -Strict Mode -=========== - -By default the unit test class evaluates literal matches loosely. -Consider this example:: - - $this->unit->run(1, TRUE); - -The test is evaluating an integer, but the expected result is a boolean. -PHP, however, due to it's loose data-typing will evaluate the above code -as TRUE using a normal equality test:: - - if (1 == TRUE) echo 'This evaluates as true'; - -If you prefer, you can put the unit test class in to strict mode, which -will compare the data type as well as the value:: - - if (1 === TRUE) echo 'This evaluates as FALSE'; - -To enable strict mode use this:: - - $this->unit->use_strict(TRUE); - -Enabling/Disabling Unit Testing -=============================== - -If you would like to leave some testing in place in your scripts, but -not have it run unless you need it, you can disable unit testing using:: - - $this->unit->active(FALSE); - -Unit Test Display -================= - -When your unit test results display, the following items show by -default: - -- Test Name (test_name) -- Test Datatype (test_datatype) -- Expected Datatype (res_datatype) -- Result (result) -- File Name (file) -- Line Number (line) -- Any notes you entered for the test (notes) - -You can customize which of these items get displayed by using -$this->unit->set_test_items(). For example, if you only wanted the test name -and the result displayed: - -Customizing displayed tests ---------------------------- - -:: - - $this->unit->set_test_items(array('test_name', 'result')); - -Creating a Template -------------------- - -If you would like your test results formatted differently then the -default you can set your own template. Here is an example of a simple -template. Note the required pseudo-variables:: - - $str = ' - - {rows} - - - - - {/rows} -
{item}{result}
'; - - $this->unit->set_template($str); - -.. note:: Your template must be declared **before** running the unit - test process. - -*************** -Class Reference -*************** - -.. php:class:: CI_Unit_test - - .. php:method:: set_test_items($items) - - :param array $items: List of visible test items - :returns: void - - Sets a list of items that should be visible in tests. - Valid options are: - - - test_name - - test_datatype - - res_datatype - - result - - file - - line - - notes - - .. php:method:: run($test[, $expected = TRUE[, $test_name = 'undefined'[, $notes = '']]]) - - :param mixed $test: Test data - :param mixed $expected: Expected result - :param string $test_name: Test name - :param string $notes: Any notes to be attached to the test - :returns: Test report - :rtype: string - - Runs unit tests. - - .. php:method:: report([$result = array()]) - - :param array $result: Array containing tests results - :returns: Test report - :rtype: string - - Generates a report about already complete tests. - - .. php:method:: use_strict([$state = TRUE]) - - :param bool $state: Strict state flag - :rtype: void - - Enables/disables strict type comparison in tests. - - .. php:method:: active([$state = TRUE]) - - :param bool $state: Whether to enable testing - :rtype: void - - Enables/disables unit testing. - - .. php:method:: result([$results = array()]) - - :param array $results: Tests results list - :returns: Array of raw result data - :rtype: array - - Returns raw tests results data. - - .. php:method:: set_template($template) - - :param string $template: Test result template - :rtype: void - - Sets the template for displaying tests results. \ No newline at end of file -- cgit v1.2.3-24-g4f1b
