README

This Codeception Module implements the required methods to test emails using the Codeception Email Testing Framework with MailCatcher

Installation

Through composer, require the package:

"require-dev": {
        "ericmartel/codeception-email-mailcatcher": "^1.0"
    }

Then turn it on in your Codeception suite yaml file

class_name: FunctionalTester
modules:
    enabled:
        - MailCatcher
    config:
        MailCatcher:
            url: 'http://127.0.0.1'
            port: '1080'

Additional parameters can be fed directly to the Guzzle connection using the guzzleRequestOptions variable.

The variable deleteEmailsAfterScenario can be set to true to ensure that all emails are deleted at the end of each scenario, but it is turned off by default.

Added Methods

This Module adds a few public methods for the user, such as:

deleteAllEmails()

Deletes all emails in MailCatcher

fetchEmails()

Fetches all email headers from MailCatcher, sorts them by timestamp and assigns them to the current and unread inboxes

accessInboxFor($address)

Filters emails to only keep those that are received by the provided address

openNextUnreadEmail()

Pops the most recent unread email and assigns it as the email to conduct tests on

Example Test

Here is a simple scenario where we test the content of an email. For a detailed list of all available test methods, please refer to the Codeception Email Testing Framework.

<?php 
$I = new FunctionalTester($scenario);
$I->am('a member');
$I->wantTo('request a reset password link');

// First, remove all existing emails in the MailCatcher inbox
$I->deleteAllEmails();

// Implementation is up to the user, use this as an example
$I->requestAPasswordResetLink();

// Query MailCatcher and fetch all available emails
$I->fetchEmails();

// This is optional, but will filter the emails in case you're sending multiple emails or use the BCC field
$I->accessInboxFor('[e-mail]');

// A new email should be available and it should be unread
$I->haveEmails();
$I->haveUnreadEmails();

// Set the next unread email as the email to perform operations on
$I->openNextUnreadEmail();

// After opening the only available email, the unread inbox should be empty
$I->dontHaveUnreadEmails();

// Validate the content of the opened email, all of these operations are performed on the same email
$I->seeInOpenedEmailSubject('Your Password Reset Link');
$I->seeInOpenedEmailBody('Follow this link to reset your password');
$I->seeInOpenedEmailRecipients('[e-mail]');
