Testing

INFO

This page documents the new Testing API. If you use the legacy one, please refer to Testing (legacy).

Sharp provides a fluent testing API to help you test your Sharp code. These assertions and helpers are designed to be used in Feature tests.

The SharpAssertions trait

To use Sharp's testing helpers, include the Code16\Sharp\Utils\Testing\SharpAssertions trait in your TestCase class:

use Code16\Sharp\Utils\Testing\SharpAssertions;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    use SharpAssertions;
    
    // ...
}

or in Pest.php:

use Code16\Sharp\Utils\Testing\SharpAssertions;

pest()
    ->extend(\Tests\TestCase::class)
    ->use(SharpAssertions::class);

Authentication

loginAsSharpUser

Sharp provides a helper to log in a user. By default, it will use the SharpAssertions internal logic to ensure the user is authorized to access Sharp.

it('allows the user to access the list', function () {
    $user = User::factory()->create();

    $this
        ->loginAsSharpUser($user)
        ->sharpList(Post::class)
        ->get()
        ->assertOk();
});

Testing Entity Lists

Use sharpList() to test your Entity Lists.

sharpList

Starts a fluent interaction with an Entity List.

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertListData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->count(3)
        ->has('0.title', 'My first post')
        ->etc()
    );

Filtering the list

You can use withFilter() to apply filters to the list before calling get() or a command.

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->withFilter(CategoryFilter::class, 1)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk();

Entity Commands

You can call an Entity Command directly from the list:

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->entityCommand(ExportPosts::class)
    ->post()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertReturnsDownload('posts.csv');

If the command has a form, you can test it:

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->entityCommand(ExportPosts::class)
    ->getForm()
    ->assertFormData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->where('format', 'xls')
        ->etc()
    )
    ->post(['format' => 'csv'])
    ->assertOk();

Instance Commands

Similarly, you can call an Instance Command:

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->instanceCommand(PublishPost::class, 1)
    ->post()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertReturnsReload();

Multi-step Commands (Wizards)

For commands that have multiple steps, you can use getNextStepForm():

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->entityCommand(MyWizardCommand::class)
    ->getForm()
    ->post(['step1_data' => 'value'])
    ->assertReturnsStep('step2')
    ->getNextStepForm()
    ->assertFormData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->where('step2_field', 'default')
        ->etc()
    )
    ->post(['step2_data' => 'value'])
    ->assertOk();

Testing Show Pages

Use sharpShow() to test your Show Pages.

sharpShow

Starts a fluent interaction with a Show Page.

$this->sharpShow(Post::class, 1)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertShowData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->where('title', 'My first post')
        ->where('author', 'John Doe')
        ->etc()
    );

Instance Commands from Show

$this->sharpShow(Post::class, 1)
    ->instanceCommand(PublishPost::class)
    ->post()
    ->assertOk();

List & dashboard fields

Show Pages can contain embedded Entity Lists or Dashboards. You can test them using sharpListField() and sharpDashboardField().

sharpListField

$this->sharpShow(Post::class, 1)
    ->sharpListField(Comment::class)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertListData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->count(5)
    );

sharpDashboardField

$this->sharpShow(User::class, 1)
    ->sharpDashboardField(UserStatsDashboard::class)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk();

Nested shows

There are some cases where you have nested shows by navigating through Show List fields. You can chain sharpShow() calls to simulate the correct breadcrumb :

$this->sharpList(Post::class)
    ->sharpShow(Post::class, 1)
    ->sharpListField(Comment::class)
    ->sharpShow(Comment::class, 1)
    ->assertOk();

Testing Forms

Use sharpForm() to test your Forms.

sharpForm

Starts a fluent interaction with a Form. If $instanceId is provided, it targets an edit form; otherwise, it targets a creation form.

Creating and Updating

// Create
$this->sharpForm(Post::class)
    ->store(['title' => 'New Post'])
    ->assertValid()
    ->assertRedirect();

// Update
$this->sharpForm(Post::class, 1)
    ->update(['title' => 'Updated Post'])
    ->assertValid()
    ->assertRedirect();

Testing the "Creation" or "Edit" request itself

If you want to test that the form displays correctly:

$this->sharpForm(Post::class, 1)
    ->edit()
    ->assertOk()
    ->assertFormData(fn (AssertableJson $data) => $data
        ->where('title', 'Existing Post')
        ->etc()
    );

From an AssertableForm (the result of edit() or create()), you can also call update() or store():

$this->sharpForm(Post::class, 1)
    ->edit()
    ->update(['title' => 'New title'])
    ->assertValid();

Testing Dashboards

Use sharpDashboard() to test your Dashboards.

sharpDashboard

Starts a fluent interaction with a Dashboard.

$this->sharpDashboard(MyDashboard::class)
    ->get()
    ->assertOk();

Filtering the dashboard

$this->sharpDashboard(MyDashboard::class)
    ->withFilter(PeriodFilter::class, ['start' => '2023-01-01', 'end' => '2023-01-31'])
    ->get()
    ->assertOk();

Dashboard Commands

$this->sharpDashboard(MyDashboard::class)
    ->dashboardCommand(RefreshStats::class)
    ->post()
    ->assertOk();
