Testeroid

It is simple plugin to getting auto tests and TDD by WP CLI

inspired by Laravel & https://pestphp.com/

demo https://github.com/wpcraft-ru/wooms/tree/master/tests

support and questions https://github.com/uptimizt/testeroid/issues

why?

It doesn't always make sense to configure complex PHP Unit for simple testing

Comparison	Testeroid	PHPUnit	PestPHP
Time to install and config	1 min	1-2 weeks	1-2 weeks
Learning curve	1 day	1-2 months	1-2 months
modern syntax	+	-	+
WP CLI support	+	-	-
simple bootstrap	+	-	-
universal testing for App, Plugin or Theme	+	-	-

how?

installation

• install plugin wp plugin install https://github.com/uptimizt/testeroid/archive/main.zip --activate --force
• make folder tests in plugin, or theme, or for whole site
• set constant TESTEROID_TESTS_PATH in wp-config.php to path of tests
  • exmaple define('TESTEROID_TESTS_PATH', __DIR__ . "/path/to/tests/")
  • via wp cli wp config set TESTEROID_TESTS_PATH '__DIR__ . "/path/to/tests/"' --raw

write tests

like PestPHP

feature test example

//file ./tests/SomeComponent.php

namespace App\Tests\SomeComponent;

use function Testeroid\{test, transaction_query};


transaction_query('start');

test('simple test', function(){

    $post_data = [
        'post_title'    => 'test 1',
        'post_content'  => 'test',
        'post_status'   => 'publish',
    ];

    // Insert the post into the database
    $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post_data );
    $post = get_post($post_id);



    if($post->post_title === 'test 1'){
        return true;
    } else {
        return false;
    }

}, 1);


transaction_query('rollback');

unit test example

<?php
//file ./tests/SomeComponent.php

namespace App\Tests\SomeComponent;

use function Testeroid\test;

test('smoke test', function(){

    $value = check(5);

    if($value === 10){
        return true;
    } else {
        return false;
    }

}, 1);

function check($x){
    return $x + 5;
}

run

cd ./path/to/wp
wp test

Todo

• test seeding and import test data
• improve CLI UI
• test GitHub Actions and auto testings for PRs
