Informations about the package phprack
Read about phpRack in php|Architect June 2010: "Integration Testing with phpRack Framework".
phpRack is a light framework for automation of integration tests. By integration tests we mean software modules that should be executed in the production environment, in order to validate that said environment is configured as expected. For example your product is a web2.0 application which depends on proper configuration of PHP, Apache, MySQL and availability of YouTube, Flickr and GoogleMaps API's. Your product is properly tested with unit tests (obviously you're using stubs for said services and components). When the product is deployed to the production environment, you want to be sure that the services you need are configured and available. If they are not — you want to get a notification about it before your end-users. And you want to get a detailed notification.
This is when phpRack is mandatory. You shall add phpRack to your project, and write a number of tests. All these tests will be executed when requested and will produce a detailed report, both only and by email. It will save you a lot of time during deployment and later, during maintenance of your product.
Quick Start
To start using phpRack you should do three operations:
- Upload phpRack library to your server
- Create
phprack.php
file in yourpublic_html
directory - Create PHP integration tests in your rack-tests directory
Let's do them one by one:
Upload phpRack library
Download ZIP archive
of phpRach and unpack it to public_html/phpRack
or some other directory on
your production server.
Create phprack.php
You should create phprack.php
in your project's public directory
(see full reference), e.g.:
Create integration tests
Write integration tests in the directory rack-tests, each one has to extend the
class PhpRack_Test
(see
full list of assertions).
For example, file MyTest.php
:
