Developers/Unit Testing

Introduction

Most PartKeepr tests are actually functional tests. Because we do automated testing using Travis CI, you need to specify your test database prior executing phpunit:

# Specifies the database connection to use. Other choices are mysql and pgsql as specified in [https://github.com/partkeepr/PartKeepr/blob/sf2migration/app/config/config_test.yml config_test.yml]
export SYMFONY__TESTDB=sqlite 
vendor/bin/phpunit -c app/

Common Issues

Fatal error: Call to undefined method PHPUnit_TextUI_TestRunner::printVersionString()

This might happen if you are using a local PHPUnit installation. You should use the phpunit version installed in

vendor/bin/phpunit

Unable to find file "@PartKeeprFrontendBundle/Resources/public/js/"

Sometimes the cache messes up unit tests, as we are doing functional tests. You should regenerate the environment.
