⚑ Usage

ApplicationEntrypointModifier extension

Source: Codeception\Extension\ApplicationEntrypointModifier

A Codeception extension that aims to ease the integration effort when collecting code coverage with codeception/c3. It replaces an existing entrypoint (e.g. typo3/index.php) with a modified entrypoint that includes the distributed c3.php file.

Enable this extension in your codeception.yml file:

# codeception.yml

extensions:
  enabled:
    - EliasHaeussler\Typo3CodeceptionHelper\Codeception\Extension\ApplicationEntrypointModifier:
        entrypoints:
          - web-dir: .Build/web
            main-entrypoint: index.php
            app-entrypoint: app.php
          - web-dir: .Build/web/typo3
            main-entrypoint: index.php
            app-entrypoint: app.php

For each entrypoint, the following config must be provided:

Example

Given the following directory structure:

.Build
└── web
    └── index.php   # main entrypoint provided by framework/application

Once the extension is enabled and properly configured, the following directory structure exists after the test suite is started:

.Build
└── web
    β”œβ”€β”€ app.php     # contains the original contents from index.php
    └── index.php   # generated entrypoint that includes c3.php and app.php

Backend module

Source: Codeception\Module\Backend

A Codeception module that allows to perform actions within TYPO3 backend. It can for example be used to log into the TYPO3 backend.

Note

This module requires the WebDriver module to be installed and enabled.

Enable this module in your codeception.yml file:

# codeception.yml

suites:
  Acceptance:
    actor: AcceptanceTester
    modules:
      enabled:
        - EliasHaeussler\Typo3CodeceptionHelper\Codeception\Module\Backend

Available methods

login($username, $password): void

Perform backend login for the given user. The user is identified by the given username and is authenticated by the given password.

Example:

$I->login('admin', 'password');

loginAs($username): void

Perform backend login for the given user. The user is identified by the given username which must be configured in the codeception module config (see Configure backend users).

Example:

$I->loginAs('admin');

openModule($identifier): void

Open a backend module by clicking on the module link. The module link is identified by a given node identifier. Note that the identifier differs between TYPO3 versions (see example below).

Example:

// TYPO3 11
$I->openModule('#web_list');

// TYPO3 12
$I->openModule('[data-modulemenu-identifier="web_list"]');

Configure backend users

Note

Backend users are not automatically created by this module. You need to take care of that by your own, e.g. by importing static database fixtures before tests are executed.

In order to use the loginAs() method, existing backend users must be configured in the module config section:

 suites:
   Acceptance:
     actor: AcceptanceTester
     modules:
       enabled:
-        - EliasHaeussler\Typo3CodeceptionHelper\Codeception\Module\Backend
+        - EliasHaeussler\Typo3CodeceptionHelper\Codeception\Module\Backend:
+            userCredentials:
+              admin: password
+              editor: password
