## Initial Setup
|
|
|
|
### MySQL database
|
|
|
|
To run the tests, you need to create a test database. You can:
|
|
- Access a database on a server
|
|
- Connect to your local database on your machine
|
|
- Use a solution like VVV - if you are using VVV you might need to `vagrant ssh` first
|
|
- Run a throwaway database in docker with this one-liner: `docker run --rm --name woocommerce_test_db -p 3306:3306 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=woocommerce_test_password -d mysql:5.7.33`. ( Use `tests/bin/install.sh woocommerce_tests root woocommerce_test_password 0.0.0.0` in next step)
|
|
|
|
### Setup instructions
|
|
|
|
Once you have database, from the WooCommerce root directory run the following:
|
|
|
|
1. Install [PHPUnit](http://phpunit.de/) via Composer by running:
|
|
```
|
|
$ composer install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Install WordPress and the WP Unit Test lib using the `install.sh` script:
|
|
```
|
|
$ tests/bin/install.sh <db-name> <db-user> <db-password> [db-host]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You may need to quote strings with backslashes to prevent them from being processed by the shell or other programs.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
$ tests/bin/install.sh woocommerce_tests root root
|
|
|
|
# woocommerce_tests is the database name and root is both the MySQL user and its password.
|
|
|
|
**Important**: The `<db-name>` database will be created if it doesn't exist and all data will be removed during testing.
|
|
|
|
## Running Tests
|
|
|
|
Change to the plugin root directory and type:
|
|
|
|
$ vendor/bin/phpunit
|
|
|
|
The tests will execute and you'll be presented with a summary.
|
|
|
|
You can run specific tests by providing the path and filename to the test class:
|
|
|
|
$ vendor/bin/phpunit tests/legacy/unit-tests/importer/product.php
|
|
|
|
A text code coverage summary can be displayed using the `--coverage-text` option:
|
|
|
|
$ vendor/bin/phpunit --coverage-text
|
|
|
|
### Running tests in PHP 8
|
|
|
|
WooCommerce currently supports PHP versions from 7.0 up to 8.0, and this poses an issue with PHPUnit:
|
|
|
|
* The latest PHPUnit version that supports PHP 7.0 is 6.5.14
|
|
* The latest PHPUnit version that WordPress (and thus WooCommerce) supports is 7.5.20, but that version doesn't work on PHP 8
|
|
|
|
To workaround this, the testing strategy used by WooCommerce is as follows:
|
|
|
|
* We normally use PHPUnit 6.5.14
|
|
* For PHP 8 we use [a custom fork of PHPUnit 7.5.20 with support for PHP 8](https://github.com/woocommerce/phpunit/pull/1). WooCommerce's GitHub Actions CI workflow is configured to use this fork instead of the old version 6 when running in PHP 8.
|
|
|
|
If you want to run the tests locally under PHP 8 you'll need to temporarily modify `composer.json` to use the custom PHPUnit fork in the same way that the GitHub Actions CI workflow file does. These are the commands that you'll need (run them after a regular `composer install`):
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
curl -L https://github.com/woocommerce/phpunit/archive/add-compatibility-with-php8-to-phpunit-7.zip -o /tmp/phpunit-7.5-fork.zip
|
|
unzip -d /tmp/phpunit-7.5-fork /tmp/phpunit-7.5-fork.zip
|
|
composer bin phpunit config --unset platform
|
|
composer bin phpunit config repositories.0 '{"type": "path", "url": "/tmp/phpunit-7.5-fork/phpunit-add-compatibility-with-php8-to-phpunit-7", "options": {"symlink": false}}'
|
|
composer bin phpunit require --dev -W phpunit/phpunit:@dev --ignore-platform-reqs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Just remember that you can't include the modified `composer.json` in any commit!
|
|
|
|
## Writing Tests
|
|
|
|
There are three different unit test directories:
|
|
|
|
- `tests/legacy/unit-tests` contains tests for code in the `includes` directory. No new tests should be added here, ever; existing test classes shouldn't get new tests either. Fixing faulty existing tests is allowed.
|
|
- `tests/php/includes` is where all the new tests for code in the `includes` directory should be written.
|
|
- `tests/php/src` is where all the tests for code in the `src` directory should be written.
|
|
|
|
Each test file should correspond to an associated source file and be named accordingly:
|
|
* For `src` code: The base namespace for tests is `Automattic\WooCommerce\Tests`. A class named `Automattic\WooCommerce\TheNamespace\TheClass` should have a test named `Automattic\WooCommerce\Tests\TheNamespace\TheClassTest`.
|
|
* For `includes` code:
|
|
* When testing classes: use the same approach as for `src` except that namespaces are not used. So a `WC_Something` class in `includes/somefolder/class-wc-something.php` should have its tests in `tests/src/internal/somefolder/class-wc-something-test.php`.
|
|
* When testing functions: use one test file per functions group file, for example `wc-formatting-functions-test.php` for code in the `wc-formatting-functions.php` file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
See also [the guidelines for writing unit tests for `src` code](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/tree/trunk/src/README.md#writing-unit-tests) and [the guidelines for `includes` code](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/tree/trunk/includes/README.md#writing-unit-tests).
|
|
|
|
General guidelines for all the unit tests:
|
|
|
|
* Each test method should cover a single method or function with one or more assertions
|
|
* A single method or function can have multiple associated test methods if it's a large or complex method
|
|
* Use the test coverage HTML report (under `tmp/coverage/index.html`) to examine which lines your tests are covering and aim for 100% coverage
|
|
* For code that cannot be tested (e.g. they require a certain PHP version), you can exclude them from coverage using a comment: `// @codeCoverageIgnoreStart` and `// @codeCoverageIgnoreEnd`. For example, see [`wc_round_tax_total()`](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/35f83867736713955fa2c4f463a024578bb88795/includes/wc-formatting-functions.php#L208-L219)
|
|
* In addition to covering each line of a method/function, make sure to test common input and edge cases.
|
|
* Prefer `assertSame()` where possible as it tests both type and value
|
|
* Remember that only methods prefixed with `test` will be run so use helper methods liberally to keep test methods small and reduce code duplication. If there is a common helper method used in multiple test files, consider adding it to the `WC_Unit_Test_Case` class so it can be shared by all test cases
|
|
* Filters persist between test cases so be sure to remove them in your test method or in the `tearDown()` method.
|
|
* Use data providers where possible. Be sure that their name is like `data_provider_function_to_test` (i.e. the data provider for `test_is_postcode` would be `data_provider_test_is_postcode`). Read more about data providers [here](https://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/writing-tests-for-phpunit.html#writing-tests-for-phpunit.data-providers).

|
|
|
## Automated Tests
|
|
|
|
Tests are automatically run with [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/actions/workflows/ci.yml) for each commit and pull request.
|
|
|
|
## Code Coverage
|
|
|
|
Code coverage is available on [Codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/woocommerce/woocommerce/) which receives updated data after each build.
