<h1>Fixing Drupal SimpleTest issues inside Docker Containers</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<p class="posted">5th May 2017</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>TL;DR</strong> You need to include the name of your web server container as the <code>--url</code> option to <code>run-scripts.php</code>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I’ve been a <a href="https://www.drupalvm.com">Drupal VM</a> user for a long time, but lately I’ve been using a combination Drupal VM and <a href="https://www.docker.com">Docker</a> for my local development environment. There were a couple of issues preventing me from completely switching to Docker - one of which being that when I tried running of my Simpletest tests, a lot of them would fail where they would pass when run within Drupal VM.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Here’s an excerpt from my <code>docker-compose.yml</code> file:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-yaml">services:
|
||||
php:
|
||||
image: wodby/drupal-php:5.6
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./repo:/var/www/html
|
||||
|
||||
nginx:
|
||||
image: wodby/drupal-nginx:7-1.10
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
NGINX_BACKEND_HOST: php
|
||||
NGINX_SERVER_ROOT: /var/www/html/web
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- "80:80"
|
||||
volumes_from:
|
||||
- php
|
||||
...
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Nginx and PHP-FPM are running in separate containers, the volumes are shared across both and the Nginx backend is set to use the <code>php</code> container.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This is the command that I was using to run the tests:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-bash">$ docker-compose run --rm \
|
||||
-w /var/www/html/web \
|
||||
php \
|
||||
php scripts/run-tests.sh \
|
||||
--php /usr/local/bin/php \
|
||||
--class OverrideNodeOptionsTestCase
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This creates a new instance of the <code>php</code> container, sets the working directory to my Drupal root and runs Drupal’s <code>run-tests.sh</code> script with some arguments. In this case, I'm running the <code>OverrideNodeOptionsTestCase</code> class for the override_node_options tests. Once complete, the container is deleted because of the <code>--rm</code> option.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This resulted in 60 of the 112 tests failing, whereas they all passed when run within a Drupal VM instance.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-markup">Test summary
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Override node options 62 passes, 60 fails, 29 exceptions, and 17 debug messages
|
||||
|
||||
Test run duration: 2 min 25 sec
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Running the tests again with the<code>--verbose</code> option, I saw this message appear in the output below some of the failing tests:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>simplexml_import_dom(): Invalid Nodetype to import</p>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Update:</strong> I later found that <a href="https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/testing/running-tests-through-command-line#troubleshooting">https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/testing/running-tests-through-command-line#troubleshooting</a> references this error message, but I didn’t see this page within my original search.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>After checking that I had all of the required PHP extensions installed, I ran <code>docker-compose exec php bash</code> to connect to the <code>php</code> container and ran <code>curl http://localhost</code> to check the output. Rather than seeing the HTML for the site, I got this error message:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 80: Connection refused</p>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Whereas <code>curl http://nginx</code> returns the HTML for the page, so included it with the <code>--url</code> option to <code>run-tests.sh</code>, and this resulted in my tests all passing.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-bash">$ docker-compose run --rm \
|
||||
-w /var/www/html/web \
|
||||
php \
|
||||
php scripts/run-tests.sh \
|
||||
--php /usr/local/bin/php \
|
||||
--url http://nginx \
|
||||
--class OverrideNodeOptionsTestCase
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-markup">Test summary
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Override node options 121 passes, 0 fails, 0 exceptions, and 34 debug messages
|
||||
|
||||
Test run duration: 2 min 31 sec
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Note:</strong> In this example I have separate <code>nginx</code> and <code>php</code> containers, but I've tried and had the same issue when running Nginx and PHP-FPM in the same container - e.g. called <code>app</code> - and still needed to add <code>--url http://app</code> in order for the tests to run successfully.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I don’t know if this issue is macOS specfic (I know that <a href="https://www.drupal.org/drupalorg/docs/drupal-ci">Drupal CI</a> is based on Docker, and I don’t know if it’s an issue) but I’m going to test also on my Ubuntu Desktop environment and investigate further and also compare the test run times for Docker in macOS, Docker in Ubuntu and within Drupal VM. I’m also going to test this with PHPUnit tests with Drupal 8.</p>

<h1>Turning Your Custom Drupal Module into a Feature</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<p class="posted">20th May 2017</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yesterday I was fixing a bug in an inherited Drupal 7 custom module, and I decided that I was going to add some tests to ensure that the bug was fixed and doesn’t get accidentially re-introduced in the future. The test though required me to have a particular content type and fields which are specific to this site, so weren’t present within the standard installation profile used to run tests.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I decided to convert the custom module into a <a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/features">Feature</a> so that the content type and it’s fields could be added to it, and therefore present on the testing site once the module is installed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To do this, I needed to expose the module to the Features API.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>All that’s needed is to add this line to the <code>mymodule.info</code> file:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-ini">features[features_api][] = api:2
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>After clearing the cache, the module is now visible in the Features list - and ready to have the appropriate configuration added to it.</p>

||||
