PHPUnit problem with fixutre data

xdolving · October 29, 2010, 4:20pm

Hi everyone,

I am currently working through the Yii book and every now and then I have problems with phpunit when testing.

I don’t understand at all whats wrong, maybe one of you guys can give me directions what I am doing wrong

The errormessage from phpunit:

My testDelete function


public function testDelete()

{

	$project = $this->projects('project2');

	$savedProjectId = $project->id;

	$this->assertTrue(Project::model()->delete());

	

	$deletedProject = Project::model()->findByPk($savedProjectId);

	$this->assertEquals(NULL, $deletedProject);

} // testDelete

and finally my fixture I created:


<?php

	return array 

	(

		'project1'=>array

		(

			'name'=>'Test Project 1',

			'description'=>'Description of Project 1',

			'create_time'=>'',

			'create_user_id'=>'',

			'update_time'=>'',

			'update_user_id'=>'',

		), // array

		

		'project2'=>array

		(

			'name'=>'Test Project 2',

			'description'=>'Description of Project 2',

			'create_time'=>'',

			'create_user_id'=>'',

			'update_time'=>'',

			'update_user_id'=>'',

		), // array

		

		'project3'=>array

		(

			'name'=>'Test Project 3',

			'description'=>'Description of Project 3',

			'create_time'=>'',

			'create_user_id'=>'',

			'update_time'=>'',

			'update_user_id'=>'',

		), // array

	); // array

	

?>

any help would be appreciated.

thanks in advance,

andre

it looks like in your test method, you need to be deleting the actual project.

You have:


$this->assertTrue(Project::model()->delete());

But what you NEED is:


$this->assertTrue($project->delete());

That solved my issue

My fixture test update is not saving to the test database but delete is working . What could be wrong with my code?

Here is my fixture:


<?php

...

    'member2' => array(

        'member_no' => '002',

        'surname' => 'Surname2',

        'othernames' => 'Othernames2',

        'gender' => 'F',

...




    public function testUpdate() {

        // UPDATE a member details

        $member = $this->members('member2');

        $updatedSurname = 'Updated Member Surname';

        $member->surname = $updatedSurname;

        $this->assertTrue($member->save(false));

        // read back the record again to ensure the update worked

        $updatedMember = Member::model()->findByPk($member->id);

        $this->assertTrue($updatedMember instanceof Member);

        $this->assertEquals($updatedSurname, $updatedMember->surname);

    }

I would appreciate your help.

Hey Samuel

I’d first check your updated model passes validation. When you make save(false) - false means not to validate the model.

So you may do


$member = $this->members('member2');

$updatedSurname = 'Updated Member Surname';

$member->surname = $updatedSurname;

var_dump($member->validate());

validate() docs

P.S. Please use code formatting button next time ("Insert code snippet" one)

Thanx yugene for the advice.

I don’t understand. The test results


var_dump($member->validate());

returns a boolean(true).
