# TDD Dublin demo module
A demo module to accompany my [TDD - Test Driven Drupal][0] talk at DrupalCamp
Dublin 2017.
## Acceptance Criteria
This module will be used to demonstrate how to take a test-driven approach to
develop a module to the following acceptance criteria:
- As a site visitor
- I want to see a list of all published pages at `/pages`
- Ordered alphabetically by title
## Dependencies
The module has a dependency on the `tightenco/collect` library which is
required in its `composer.json` file. This will need to be installed via
Composer in order for the tests to run.
The library is used only to make it simpler to retrieve data from within an
array of view results so that assertions can be made against it. The same tests
could be written in a slightly different way without the dependency if needed.
## Running the Tests
These tests are functional tests based on the `BrowserTestBase` class so need
to be executed with PHPUnit (which is required in core's `composer.json` file).
The path to your `vendor` directory may be different depending on your setup.
Because of autoloading, you will need to be inside Drupal's `core` subdirectory
when running the tests for them to execute successfully.
This also assumes that the module is within a `modules/custom` directory and
named `tdd_dublin` as per the repository name.
```
cd core
../vendor/bin/phpunit ../modules/custom/tdd_dublin
```
You can use PHPUnit's `--filter` option to specify a single test method to run,
rather than all of the tests within the module. For example:
```
../vendor/bin/phpunit ../modules/custom/tdd_dublin --filter=testOnlyPublishedPagesAreShown
```
