Having [given talks][1] and workshops, been a guest on podcasts and [written articles][0] about automated testing in Drupal, I’m currently in the planning phase of a book and potentially some accompanying screencasts about it, focussing on Drupal 8.
|
||
|
||
I’m still thinking about what use-cases to cover and examples to include, but
|
||
here are some of the things I’m considering:
|
||
|
||
- What things to test, and what not to test
|
||
- The different types of available tests, and when to use each
|
||
- How to write testable code
|
||
- What happens when I run a test?
|
||
- How to run tests in the Drupal UI
|
||
- How to run tests with the `run-tests.sh` script
|
||
- How to install, configure and run tests with PHPUnit in Drupal 8
|
||
- Viewing HTML from run tests
|
||
- How to write your first test
|
||
- Debugging tests
|
||
- How to organise your test files
|
||
- Selecting the right base class and using test traits
|
||
- Writing your own base test classes, traits and assertions
|
||
- Managing dependencies for your tests (fields, configuration)
|
||
- Creating users, checking access with roles and permissions
|
||
- Creating pages and blocks with Views and testing the output
|
||
- Creating pages with routes and controllers and testing the output
|
||
- Testing custom plugins
|
||
- Testing queuing items and processing queues
|
||
- Testing sending emails
|
||
- Testing custom Twig filters and functions
|
||
<!-- - Testing data migrations -->
|
||
<!-- - Building and testing APIs using RESTful web services module -->
|
||
- Running tests as part of your continuous integration pipeline
|
||
|
||
I’ll most likely be publishing it via Leanpub, and will be sending free
|
||
chapters, early-bird discounts and links to screencasts and blog posts as I
|
||
write the book to subscribers of the mailing list.
|
||
|
||
If you have questions or would like to suggest something for me to include in
|
||
the book, please <a href="mailto:{{ page.contact_email }}">contact me</a>.
