Collection::filter(), does anyone know what `$key` is good for in the docs example? https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/core-libraries/collections.html#Cake\Collection\Collection::filter |

Mark recommended https://github.com/php-vcr/php-vcr if you want to test against external APIs |

So I'll start researching how to write a Unittest for my tasks |

Although I don't really care about how long they run |

@sauvaget If you’re running tests on push, then I would stick to critical path unit tests. Integration tests take a long time to run |

@ericadeefox and @neon1024 thank you I will take a look tommorow, thank you for the tips :slightly_smiling_face: |

I think that is probably my main problem, I just haven't got enough experience, when to use which testing method |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 15:05 |
sauvaget |
So I should abort the Integration Test completly and only write Unittests or can I somehow inject the mocked class into my integration test? |

I like to write my CakePHP helpers in a TDD way to keep my hand in :P |

Which then ties into writing ‘testable code’, which helps loads. Especially if you respect the SOLID principles |

At least in my experience ;) |

Keeping your unit under test as small as possible will make writing tests super easy |

By having your stub MailGun class return a 500 or something |

You might want to test the third party service failing |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 14:53 |
neon1024 |
As all you can really test is that you send a request |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 14:52 |
neon1024 |
But if you’re using a third party to send mail, it’s pretty pointless to test it |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 14:52 |
neon1024 |
In this case to unit test your email send, you would inject a mock Mailgun class which has a fixed return |
| # |

That is not unit testing, that is integration testing. |

That's why I thought testing the tasks directly would do the trick. |

Okay, but for example in my QueueShellTest I create the Job SendEmail and start the worker with ``` $this->QueueShell->runworker(); ``` It will do everything fine. Now for sending the Email I use Mailgun. I don't really want to call the Mailgun API every time I run my Unittests (which run with every push to gitlab) So I will have to Mock the method in my SendEMail Task. But since I am not testing the Task directly I don't know how to Mock th |

Working on the final part, “Improving the Tagging Experience,” and I don’t see what the changes have done. I don’t see the list of tags as a string anywhere. |

I would recommend unit testing the methods in your worker, probably using a fixutre |

Hey guys, I am having a little problem writing some Tests. I am using @dereuromark cakephp-queue plugin. Now I have a test for the QueueShell. But I would also like to test my actual tasks. Unfortunatly there is no example file for that case and I am still pretty noobie testing wise. Has anybody got an example lying around? |

^I use that! it's 10/10, really easy to set up, makes it super easy to build queries, lmk if you want to see how I use it @johnwayne |

my idea was to explode string and for each word make where 'Table.column_name Like' =>'%'.$search_term.'%'... |

What is the best practice to build a query with a multi-word search string, searching multiple fields and/in multiple tables? |

@jack-sparrow in the first iteration of the foreach loop, `$arrOfFields[$value]['option_labels'][$t]['count']` hasn't been defined yet. You could solve this by adding (on line 36 of the pastebin code) `$arrOfFields[$value]['option_labels'][$t]['count'] = 0;` |

do validation errors get set after a save attempt or before? |
