Flowdception is a Codeception Extension for integrating the Flowder fixture loader into Codeception test suites.

Usage

1. Install Flowdception as a development dependency through Composer

   $ composer install imjoehaines/flowdception --dev

2. Enable Flowdception as an extension in your main codeception.yml, or a specific suite's YAML configuration file (e.g. integration.suite.yml)

   extensions:
     enabled:
       - \Imjoehaines\Flowder\Codeception\Flowdception

3. Bootstrap Flowdception by calling Flowdception::bootsrap in one of your _bootstrap.php Codeception files, passing in an instance of \Imjoehaines\Flowder\Flowder (see the Flowder documentation for more information).

   A simple SQLite example might look like this:

   <?php
   
   require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
   
   use Imjoehaines\Flowder\Codeception\Flowdception;
   
   use Imjoehaines\Flowder\Loader\PhpFileLoader;
   use Imjoehaines\Flowder\Truncator\SqliteTruncator;
   use Imjoehaines\Flowder\Persister\SqlitePersister;
   
   $db = new PDO(...);
   $db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
   
   Flowdception::bootstrap(
       __DIR__ . '/_data/example.php',
       new PhpFileLoader(),
       new SqliteTruncator($db),
       new SqlitePersister($db)
   );

4. That's it! Before any Codeception test file runs, Flowder will load your fixture data for you
