OrchardCore Testing #11865

Open MichaelPetrinolis opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When developing an Orchard Core module/app it would be nice to have a Testing Library to get you started with unit and integration testing in OrchardCore terms

Describe the solution you'd like

Create an OrchardCore.Testing library by extracting reusable code from OrchardCore.Tests

I haven't used it myself but you may be interested in https://github.com/Lombiq/UI-Testing-Toolbox

MichaelPetrinolis commented 2 years ago

Thanx @rjpowers10 , my point here is to reuse the objects in OrchardCore.Tests and provide a Testing library specific for OrchardCore, so devs can use the same logic - as in OrchardCore source - to test their own modules.

@MichaelPetrinolis believe it or no I was planned to working on something similar because I'm interesting in Software Testing, It's great to see your input

I need to look into your PR soon, If you need help on this I can handle it or at least contribute as much as I can

@hishamco thanx! Looking forward for your feedback/suggestions.

Hi @MichaelPetrinolis I'm thinking to organize the testing projects as the following:

BTW we already have a unit tests and some functional tests, I need to dig into Cypress to check if these tests are functional or user acceptance tests or UI

For UI tests we already have a test suite from Lombiq that can fit nicely here

Our current tests need to be organized in terms of namespaces and group them accoding to the source:

I can work hard in this are if the team agree, the PR that @MichaelPetrinolis is created is a very good start to refactor and move the common thing into a place, so they can be reusable

Also we need a set of built-in testing APIs infrastructure, that simplify testsing APIs & modules, instead of repeating the code or do everything from scratch
