Skills Upgrade #7

from Talking Drupal

Welcome back to "Skills Upgrade" a Talking Drupal mini-series following the journey of a D7 developer learning D10. This is episode 7. Topics Review Chad's goals for the previous week Test Example Set up phpunit.xml Start with FrontPageLinkTest.php Review Chad's questions In the testing_example module, the file "src/Controller/TestingExampleController.php" has a function for simpletestDescription(). Is this an outdated artifact that should have been removed at some point? The module itself doesn't appear to use Simpletest elsewhere and appears to only rely on PHPUnit. What do you recommend for the minimal code structure to include for any given test type? Is the Testing Example module an ideal model or are there other resources I should review? The testing reference from Selwyn was helpful. In the "FrontPageLinkDependenciesTest.php" setUp() function, the createContentType() function is called without specifying the type. Is that set somewhere else? I may have overlooked it. Nevermind—it's set using randomMachineName() in the createContentType() function. Is there anything extra or standard to write in tests for drupal.org? Tasks for the upcoming week Smart Date - Martin (maintainer) to review promptly, I've already chatted with him about it. Create a new functional test: "submit a range with an end time before the start and validate that an error is returned" Create an issue in the Smart Date queue and assign to yourself. Create an issue fork. Check out the issue fork locally. Write (and test) the test locally. Commit and push to the issue fork. Mark issue as "Needs review". Ask someone to review - if all looks good, the reviewer will mark as RBTC.
