Automated Testing

Gibbon uses PHPUnit and Codeception for automated testing. Both testing frameworks can be installed and configured to run in your localhost.

Note

Our refactoring efforts are ongoing, and the code coverage for automated tests is not all-encompassing. A passing test does not guarantee a working codebase: please always test manually too.

PHPUnit

PHPUnit tests can be run with the phpunit . command in the /tests folder

Codeception

Codeception tests can be run with the codecept run command in the /tests folder

Codeception involves integration testing and makes use of a database connection; it will not run unless explicitly enabled. To enable Codeception testing in Gibbon, add the following to your config.php file:

$testEnvironment = 'codeception';

Continuous Integration

Pull requests to the development branch are automatically built & tested with continuous integration using GitHub Actions.
