README

This project make usages of PHPStan (WIP) and PHPParser to generate test cases for a given PHP File by parsing its AST.

Why?

With static code analyzer it is possible to generate tests which where mostly forgotten. The target of the project is not to generate a whole test cases instead it should generate the most boilerplate code of the test case and tell which method for the class methods should be implemented.

So example if we have a method like the following:

public function setTitle(?string $title): void
{
    $this->title = $title;
}

public function getTitle(): void
{
    $this->title = $title;
}

If you are using code coverage you will get 100% when you are testing:

public function testSetTitle(): void
{
    $model = $this->createInstance();
    $model->setTitle('Test');
    $this->assertSame('Test', $model->getTitle());
}

But as ?string can be seen as an union type of string|null the testcase for null type is missing:

public function testSetTitleNull(): void
{
    $model = $this->createInstance();
    $model->setTitle(null);
    $this->assertNull($model->getTitle());
}

The project target is to already generate also the boilerplate for that test case.

Installation

composer require --dev schranz/test-generator

Config

Create a new tests/generator-config.php file:

<?php

use Schranz\TestGenerator\Domain\Model\Config;

$config = new Config();
// add following hooks if you want to use `rector` or `php-cs-fixer` directly on the created test files
// $config->hooks[] = 'vendor/bin/rector process %s';
// $config->hooks[] = 'vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix %s';

return $config;

See Config.php for all options.

It is recommended to also configure in the projects phpunit.xml the failOnIncomplete to true:

<phpunit
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit.xsd"
     ...
+     failOnIncomplete="true"
>

So generated tests fail automatically and require adjustments and review by the developer.

Usage
