I'm working on testing a shopping cart, checkout, payment process on Zend Framework with phpunit. I'm testing ShoppingCartController
by adding products to cart, a ShoppingCart
Model handles product additions by storing product id's in a Zend Session Namespace, and then in another test I want to test that the products were added. The same ShoppingCart
Model retrieves a list of added products from the same Zend Session namespace variable.
The add product test looks like this and works well, and the var_dump($_SESSION)
was added to debug and shows the products correctly:
public function testCanAddProductsToShoppingCart() {
$testProducts = array(
array(
"product_id" => "1",
"product_quantity" => "5"
),
array(
"product_id" => "1",
"product_quantity" => "3"
),
array(
"product_id" => "2",
"product_quantity" => "1"
)
);
Ecommerce_Model_Shoppingcart::clean();
foreach ($testProducts as $product) {
$this->request->setMethod('POST')
->setPost(array(
'product_id' => $product["product_id"],
'quantity' => $product["product_quantity"]
));
$this->dispatch($this->getRouteUrl("add_to_shopping_cart"));
$this->assertResponseCode('200');
}
$products = Ecommerce_Model_Shoppingcart::getData();
$this->assertTrue($products[2][0]["product"] instanceof Ecommerce_Model_Product);
$this->assertEquals($products[2][0]["quantity"],
"8");
$this->assertTrue($products[2][1]["product"] instanceof Ecommerce_Model_Product);
$this->assertEquals($products[2][1]["quantity"],
"1");
var_dump($_SESSION);
}
The second test attempts to retrieve the products by asking the model to do so, the var_dump($_SESSION)
is null already at the beginning of the test. The session variables were reset, I want to find a way to preserve them, can anyone help?
public function testCanDisplayShoppingCartWidget() {
var_dump($_SESSION);
$this->dispatch($this->getRouteUrl("view_shopping_mini_cart"));
$this->assertResponseCode('200');
}
