README

Integrates php-vcr into Symfony and its web profiler. It also provides a VideoRecorderBrowser for testing purpose with extra helper methods handling php-vcr recordings.

Installation

Install the behavior adding php-vcr/vcr-bundle to your composer.json or from CLI:

composer require php-vcr/vcr-bundle

And declare the bundle in your config/bundles.php file:

<?php
declare(strict_types = 1);

return [
    // ...
    VCR\VCRBundle\VCRBundle::class => ['test' => true],
];

Usage

Enable the required library hooks for your purpose and write test cases.

VideoRecorderBrowser (without Trait)

<?php
declare(strict_types = 1);

class ExampleTest extends \VCR\VCRBundle\Tests\Functional\WebTestCase
{
    public function test(): void
    {
        $kernel = static::bootKernel();
        /** @var \VCR\VCRBundle\VideoRecorderBrowser $client */
        $client = $kernel->getContainer()->get('test.client.vcr');
        
        $client->insertVideoRecorderCassette('my-test-cassette-name');
        
        // this is an example, normally services inside you project do stuff like this and you trigger them by
        // execute requests via the KernelBrowser client
        file_get_contents('https://www.google.de');
        
        // cassette.path is configured to '%kernel.project_dir%/tests/Fixtures'
        // recordings are written to %kernel.project_dir%/tests/Fixtures/my-test-cassette-name
        // cassette.path + cassetteName (done by inserting the cassette)
    }
}

VideoRecorderBrowser (with Trait)

<?php
declare(strict_types = 1);

namespace MyCompany\MyProject\Tests\Functional;

class ExampleTest extends \VCR\VCRBundle\Tests\Functional\WebTestCase
{
    use \VCR\VCRBundle\Test\VCRTestCaseTrait;

    /**
     * Specify a namespace prefix which should be ignored while generating the base path for this test case. 
     */
    protected $ignoredTestSuiteNamespacePrefix = 'MyCompany\\MyProject\\Tests\\';

    public function test(): void
    {
        /** @var \VCR\VCRBundle\VideoRecorderBrowser $client */
        $client = static::createVideoRecorderClient();
        
        // this is an example, normally services inside you project do stuff like this and you trigger them by
        // execute requests via the KernelBrowser client
        file_get_contents('https://www.google.de');
        
        // cassette.path is configured to '%kernel.project_dir%/tests/Fixtures'
        // recordings are written to %kernel.project_dir%/tests/Fixtures/Functional/ExampleTest/test
        // cassette.path + TestCasePath (- ignoredTestSuiteNamespacePrefix) + TestName
    }
}
