Hi:

Nice patch, I have installed in my framework, but, as I made with Toast, it's necesary to have it's own config file (config/toast_utest.php ?), to allow directory location of controllers and views.

Also, I have find missing a assert function: assert_contents, to check if result contents a phrase or words inside. If you want I can send you my mod.

Thanks,

XMadMax

Nop Xperez(Perez apellido??), no config file, if you want to change dir file just change Line 25 on toastx.php:

Code:

var $test_dir = '/test/';

I think the author did not want to be unobtrusive putting a CSS, config etc. I mean extra files.

So just edit the controller and thats all.

Hi there,

I'm trying to use it but I cannot see how can I test a Controller...

I have something like:

Class Login_company extends Controller {

function check_login () {

}
}

How can I test the function "check_login"?

Thanks in advance.
Ricardo

Check /test folder examples

Can you be more specific? In example I can't see any controller function test:

<?php
require_once(APPPATH . '/controllers/test/ToastX.php');

class Example_tests extends ToastX
{
function Example_tests()
{
parent::ToastX(__FILE__);
// Load any models, libraries etc. you need here
}

/**
* OPTIONAL; Anything in this function will be run before each test
* Good for doing cleanup: resetting sessions, renewing objects, etc.
*/
function _pre() {}

/**
* OPTIONAL; Anything in this function will be run after each test
* I use it for setting $this->message = $this->My_model->getError();
*/
function _post() {}


/* TESTS BELOW */

function test_simple_addition()
{
$var = 2 + 2;
$this->_assert_equals($var, 4);
}


function test_that_fails()
{
$a = true;
$b = $a;

// You can test multiple assertions / variables in one function:

$this->_assert_true($a); // true
$this->_assert_false($b); // false
$this->_assert_equals($a, $b); // true

// Since one of the assertions failed, this test case will fail
}


function test_or_operator()
{
$a = true;
$b = false;
$var = $a || $b;

$this->_assert_true($var);

// If you need to, you can pass a message /
// description to the unit test results page:

$this->message = '$a || $b';
}

}
