Sequence

Installation

composer require --dev codeception/module-sequence

Description

Sequence solves data cleanup issue in alternative way. Instead cleaning up the database between tests, you can use generated unique names, that should not conflict. When you create article on a site, for instance, you can assign it a unique name and then check it.

This module has no actions, but introduces a function sq for generating unique sequences within test and sqs for generating unique sequences across suite.

Usage

Function sq generates sequence, the only parameter it takes, is id. You can get back to previously generated sequence using that id:

<?php
sq('post1'); // post1_521fbc63021eb
sq('post2'); // post2_521fbc6302266
sq('post1'); // post1_521fbc63021eb

Example:

<?php
$I->wantTo('create article');
$I->click('New Article');
$I->fillField('Title', sq('Article'));
$I->fillField('Body', 'Demo article with Lorem Ipsum');
$I->click('save');
$I->see(sq('Article') ,'#articles')

Populating Database:

<?php

for ($i = 0; $i<10; $i++) {
     $I->haveInDatabase('users', array('login' => sq("user$i"), 'email' => sq("user$i").'@email.com');
}

Cest Suite tests:

<?php
class UserTest
{
    public function createUser(AcceptanceTester $I)
    {
        $I->createUser(sqs('user') . '@mailserver.com', sqs('login'), sqs('pwd'));
    }

    public function checkEmail(AcceptanceTester $I)
    {
        $I->seeInEmailTo(sqs('user') . '@mailserver.com', sqs('login'));
    }

    public function removeUser(AcceptanceTester $I)
    {
        $I->removeUser(sqs('user') . '@mailserver.com');
    }
}

Config

By default produces unique string with param as a prefix:

sq('user') => 'user_876asd8as87a'

This behavior can be configured using prefix config param.

Old style sequences:

Sequence:
    prefix: '_'

Using id param inside prefix:

Sequence:
    prefix: '{id}.'
