abstract class FunctionalTest extends SapphireTest implements TestOnly (View source)

SilverStripe-specific testing object designed to support functional testing of your web app. It simulates get/post requests, form submission, and can validate resulting HTML, looking up content by CSS selector.

The example below shows how it works.

public function testMyForm() { // Visit a URL $this->get("your/url");

// Submit a form on the page that you get in response $this->submitForm("MyForm_ID", "action_dologin", array("Email" => "invalid email ^&*&^"));

// Validate the content that is returned $this->assertExactMatchBySelector("#MyForm_ID p.error", array("That email address is invalid.")); }

static void setUpBeforeClass()

Called once per test case ({@link SapphireTest} subclass).

This is different to {@link setUp()}, which gets called once per method. Useful to initialize expensive operations which don't change state for any called method inside the test, e.g. dynamically adding an extension. See {@link teardownAfterClass()} for tearing down the state again.

Always sets up in order:

  • Reset php state
  • Nest
  • Custom state helpers

User code should call parent::setUpBeforeClass() before custom setup code

Return Value
