QuickBrownFox
ORM independent RDB fixture data generator.
Basic Usage
At first, define a session manager in your DI container or service locator:
Prepare new test session in your test case:
Session indicates single testing context. Database tables are automatically cleaned up in each sessions.
tearDown method is not necessary. So, you can see the last state of database after test.
generate
Test your repository using randomly generated data by generate method:
In above example, generate method generates 10 random books. You don't need to care column definition.
QuickBrownFox automatically fills non-null columns with random values.
Also you don't need to care relative tables because foreign key constraints are resolved automatically. If depending table is not filled yet, QuickBrownFox generates data for it.
load
You can test with detailed data using load method:
In this case, load method loads specific data. If you don't specify some columns or relationships,
QuickBrownFox fills them with random values.
with
You can specify automatically filled value patterns using with method:
with method sets common attributes for each data by callable which returns array.
You can also use an array which has callable or constant values.
Advanced Usage
Predefined Fixtures and Generators
QuickBrownFox supports predefined fixtures and generators.
You can use named fixtures and generators in your test:
loadmethod can load predefined fixture by name.withmethod can set predefined generator by name.
It's useful when you have some common data structure in your application.
You can use with method multiple times. They are merged.
Default Values
FixtureManager provides defaults method to customize random value generation.
It's useful when table has some semantic constraints as its schema definition.
In above example, type column is filled with random value between 1 and 3 even if not specified by with.
