junit5 VS PHPUnit

To make the above check work we need to wrap it in JUnit test:

Java / JUnit

Next, you need to install a testing framework that will be used for performing unit testing in your project. Several testing frameworks are available depending on the programming language used to create an application. For example, JUnit is commonly used for Java apps, pytest for Python apps, NUnit for .NET apps, Jest for JavaScript apps, and so on. We’ll use the Jest framework for this tutorial since we are using JavaScript.

This repository provides a BuildImageTest that uses the buildpack to create a native image. It then tests the native image, using Testcontainers and JUnit. Building the native image with AOT processing, as part of a test, takes minutes not seconds, and should not be part of normal "inner loop" development. So the BuildImageTest is in a separate sourceSet and can be executed independently. This is a very powerful pattern, that I'm just getting started with. I would love to hear your thoughts on this pattern or other alternatives to it.

To get started with testing, search for a popular testing framework for your programming language. PHP has PHPUnit, for example. Java has JUnit. Flutter apps use Flutter Driver. No matter your language or framework, there is a testing framework that will work for your app.

Another library which may be of use to you once you've gotten to grips with the basics of Java is JUnit. JUnit provides functionality for unit testing, allowing you to more easily see if your code is working as expected/if you've accidentally broken anything, via letting you write tests that can check if your code is behaving as expected or not.

In my last episode (https://youtu.be/cs2Wu9Co-2s) I said that we shouldn't use JUnit @BeforeEach to setUp test fields. Christoph Sturm (https://twitter.com/globalo) pointed out that there is an, erm, feature of JUnit 5 that means that we sometimes have to use @BeforeEach methods to initialise resources if we want them to be released in @AfterEach. The bug report is here https://github.com/junit-team/junit5/issues/1358 With or without this feature, we probably should use @BeforeEach to run code that will allocate non-memory resources that we need to free in @AfterEach, if only for symmetry. I suppose that also applies to any side-effects that we need to be reverted and that are not confined to the state of the test fixture.

Testing tools on the JVM stopped using reflection about twenty years ago, they all use annotations these days (e.g. https://testng.org, https://junit.org). Rust has annotations too, obviously.

Testcontainers is a Java library that supports JUnit tests providing lightweight instances of anything that we can run in a Docker container.

PHPUnit is the de facto standard for PHP unit testing. It provides a framework for writing and running tests, helping developers quickly discover and fix errors. PHPUnit encourages developers to write testable code and adopt a test-driven development approach, resulting in higher-quality code and reduced chances of errors in production.

Before updating Api Platform, you should make sure that your Api Platform routes are fully covered by tests. You can define integration tests with PHPUnit, Behat or Pest, depending on the tool you’re most comfortable with.

PHP popular tools for testing: PHPUnit

PHPUnit: PHPUnit is a programmer-oriented testing framework for PHP. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks. Extensions/tools: brianium/paratest: Parallel testing for PHPUnit johnkary/phpunit-speedtrap: Reports on slow-running tests in your PHPUnit test suite. robiningelbrecht/phpunit-pretty-print: Better PHPUnit CLI output with Collision roave/no-leaks: PHPUnit Plugin for detecting Memory Leaks in code and tests

We want to start migrating to Attributes because of the announcement made here that in PHPUnit 12 support for metadata in docblocks will be removed: https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4502

PHPUnit: PHPUnit PHPUnit is a testing framework for PHP. It enables developers to write unit tests, integration tests, and functional tests to verify the correctness of their code. It offers a wide range of assertions, test runners, and mocking capabilities.

I really like how Pest PHP formats and outputs test results, but I still prefer to use PHPUnit. Luckily there's Collision. This package is designed to give you beautiful error reporting when interacting with your app through the command line.

Finally we install the command line version of php (no web server is needed for this project), composer which is a package management system for PHP and PHP Unit, the testing framework of PHP.

I've been developing my own symfony bundle and I would like to share with you how I'm driving continuos integration to execute my unit tests. For testing purposes I'm using phpunit and for continous integration i've choosen github actions.

PHPUnit is a unit testing framework for PHP included with Laravel and can be used to test your application's code. It provides a set of assertions and functions for testing your code and can be used to run automated tests.
