Codeception support

[kbond]

I have never used Codeception so would like help from someone familiar with it to help with possible integration. This is a naive POC that could be a possible starting point.

Do the PHPUnit assertions available on the RepositoryProxy and Proxy objects (ie RepositoryProxy::assertCount()) work with Codeception?

[TavoNiievez]

Hey @kbond, can you please update the description of this issue with the current challenges of integrating with Codeception?

Is there any way we can convert this into a module like module-datafactory

Hey @TavoNiievez - I updated the description. Basically, I just need someone who is well acquainted with Codeception to champion the effort to integrate.

Is there any way we can convert this into a module like module-datafactory

I think so but I would like confirmation by someone familiar with the library (ie convert a real project with many tests to use this module).

[TavoNiievez]

Well, I'm not an expert yet, but I know the symfony module well and worked on its latest versions, the data-factory module doesn't seem to have very complex code... So I think I can help with a Foundry module as well.

(ie convert a real project with many tests to use this module).

We could somehow adapt https://github.com/Codeception/symfony-module-tests so that it can meet that goal.

hopefully, we can make an official module from it.

not to mention more 😄: @Naktibalda @DavertMik Do you think we can collaborate to get this module forward? Starting by answering:

Alternatively, I'm open to having the module live in this library. We could mark it as experimental (so to allow possible BC breaks) and it could act as a POC for an official module if ever desired.

I tried.

I created a module, and I tried the have function, which should receive the fqcn of the entity and the attributes.

Here is the code for the function.

In my functional.suite.yml I have:

actor: FunctionalTester
modules:
    enabled:
        - Foundry:
            depends: Doctrine2
            factories:
                - \App\Factory\UserFactory
        - Symfony:
            app_path: 'src'
            environment: 'test'
        - Doctrine2:
            depends: Symfony
            cleanup: true

and in my test I have:

    $I->have(User::class, [
        'email' => '[email protected]',
        'password' => '123456'
    ]);
    $I->seeNumRecords(1, User::class);

everything goes fine until Foundry tries to create the object 🤣 ​​[line 140]

I am getting the following error:

[InvalidArgumentException] Cannot set attribute "0" for object "App\Entity\User" (not public and no setter).

However, calling Foundry as I do in my fixtures from there also does not work:

    UserFactory::new([
            'email' => '[email protected]',
            'password' => '123456'
    ])->create();

so I guess the problem is another.

I am getting the following error:

I believe [$attributes] should be $attributes.

[TavoNiievez]

yes, that was it. Thanks you. It works well. I'll continue with the other methods and documentation.

I finished the first draft:

module-foundry, also in Packagist.
