Database isolation attribute

To isolate database changes between tests, the Integration testing framework (ITF) implements the DbIsolation attribute. When the DbIsolation attribute is enabled, the ITF:

• Starts a database transaction before the test/test case.
• Avoids a database commit during the test/test case.
• Restores the database after the test/test case.

Format

Copy
#[
    DbIsolation(bool $state = true)
]
Copied to your clipboard
#[
    DbIsolation(bool $state = true)
]

Parameters

• state
  • Enables or disables database isolation.

Test class attribute

Use test class declarations when a sequence of tests introduces changes to the database and relies on the changes made by each other. For example, typical CRUD tests: create -> read -> update -> delete. Every next test method relies on a database state after the previous one. If at any point of that sequence (after creation) the test method fails, the database will be polluted with test data. To apply a database rollback after the test class, create a separate test class with DbIsolation enabled at a class level.

Example:

Copy
#[
    DbIsolation(true)
]
class Some\EntityTest extends \PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase
{
    public function testCreate()
    {
        $this->object->setData($this->initialData)->save();
        $this->assertNotEmpty($this->object->getId());
        return $this->object->getId();
    }

    public function testRead($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEquals($this->initialData, $this->object->getData());
        return $objectId;
    }

    public function testUpdate($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->setData($newData)->save();
        $object = new Some_Entity();
        $object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEquals($newData, $object->getData());
        return $objectId;
    }

    public function testDelete($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->delete();
        $object = new Some_Entity();
        $object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEmpty($object->getData());
    }
}

#[
    DbIsolation(true)
]
class Some\EntityTest extends \PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase
{
    public function testCreate()
    {
        $this->object->setData($this->initialData)->save();
        $this->assertNotEmpty($this->object->getId());
        return $this->object->getId();
    }

    public function testRead($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEquals($this->initialData, $this->object->getData());
        return $objectId;
    }

    public function testUpdate($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->setData($newData)->save();
        $object = new Some_Entity();
        $object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEquals($newData, $object->getData());
        return $objectId;
    }

    public function testDelete($objectId)
    {
        $this->object->delete();
        $object = new Some_Entity();
        $object->load($objectId);
        $this->assertEmpty($object->getData());
    }
}

Test method attribute

To isolate changes made to the database by a single test, enable the DbIsolation attribute for the test method.

Copy
#[
    DbIsolation(true)
]
public function testSave()
{
    $taxClassDataObject = $this->taxClassFactory->create();
    $taxClassDataObject->setClassName(self::SAMPLE_TAX_CLASS_NAME)
        ->setClassType(TaxClassManagementInterface::TYPE_CUSTOMER);
    $taxClassId = $this->taxClassRepository->save($taxClassDataObject);
    $this->assertEquals(self::SAMPLE_TAX_CLASS_NAME, $this->taxClassModel->load($taxClassId)->getClassName());
}
Copied to your clipboard
#[
    DbIsolation(true)
]
public function testSave()
{
    $taxClassDataObject = $this->taxClassFactory->create();
    $taxClassDataObject->setClassName(self::SAMPLE_TAX_CLASS_NAME)
        ->setClassType(TaxClassManagementInterface::TYPE_CUSTOMER);
    $taxClassId = $this->taxClassRepository->save($taxClassDataObject);
    $this->assertEquals(self::SAMPLE_TAX_CLASS_NAME, $this->taxClassModel->load($taxClassId)->getClassName());
}
