In Drupal, there are different types of automated tests we can write.<\/p>
The most common I use are Functional, Kernel and Unit - which I explain about in my Test Driven Drupal talk<\/a>.<\/p> If I'm writing multiple of the same type, I'll often create my own base test class that extends This allows me to write custom helper functions and share behaviour between the tests.<\/p> An example is the But, what if you want to do this for different types of test?<\/p> Enter, traits.<\/p> Traits are a way of reusing code without inheritance - meaning without extending a base class.<\/p> I can use a trait in my functional and kernel tests whilst both extend their required base classes.<\/p> I did this with my To see this, you can look at the code<\/a> on my Forgejo instance.<\/p> P.S.
