<h1>Codeception Quickstart Guide</h1>

</div>

<p class="lead">Codeception PHP Testing Framework is designed to work just out of the box.

This means its installation requires minimal steps and no external dependencies

preinstalled (except PHP, of course). Only one configuration step should

be taken and you are ready to test your web application from an eye of

actual user. </p>

<div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">1. Download</h4></div>

<p>Download and save the

<b>phar</b> archive to the root of your web application. </p>

<a class="btn btn-lg btn-success" href="/thanks" target="_blank">Download Codeception</a>

<p class="text-muted">alternatively download it from console</p>

<div>

<pre><code>wget http://codeception.com/codecept.phar</code></pre>

</div>

Install via Composer

<pre><code>php composer.phar require "codeception/codeception:*"</code></pre>

<p>Use <code>./vendor/bin/codecept</code> instead of codecept.phar in this tutorial.</p>

</div>

<div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">2. Install</h4></div>

<p>Open console directory where you saved codecept.phar file and execute:</p>

<div>

<p>

<pre><code>php codecept.phar bootstrap</code></pre>

</p>

</div>

<p class="text-muted">This creates

<b>codeception.yml</b> file and  

<b>tests</b> directory.</p>

</div>

<div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">3. Create Test</h4></div>

<p>Generate your first acceptance test. Acceptance tests emulate behavior

of a real user visiting your site.</p>

<div>

<p>

<pre><code>php codecept.phar generate:cept acceptance Welcome</code></pre>

</p>

</div>

<p class="text-muted">Codeception scenario tests are called Cepts.</p>

</div>

<div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">4. Write Basic Test</h4></div>

<p>It's now time to write your first test. Edit the file we've just created

<b>tests/acceptance/WelcomeCept.php</b>

</p>

<div>

{% highlight php %}

<?php

$I = new AcceptanceTester($scenario);

$I->wantTo('ensure that frontpage works');

$I->amOnPage('/');

$I->see('Home');

?>{% endhighlight %}

</div>

<p class="text-muted">It will check that your frontpage contains the word

</div>

<div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">5. Configure Acceptance Tests</h4></div>

<b>dev server</b>is running.  Put application URL into: 

<b>tests/acceptance.suite.yml</b> </p>

<div>

<pre>class_name: AcceptanceGuy

<p>Codeception are executed with 'run' command</p>

<div>

<p>

<pre><code>php codecept.phar run</code></pre>

</p>

</div>

<p class="text-muted">This will execute our Welcome test with

<b>PhpBrowser</b>. It's PHP script that can check HTML page contents, click

links, fill forms, and submit POST and GET requests. For more complex tests

that require a browser use Selenium with

<b>WebDriver</b> module.</p>

</div>

<div class="panel-heading">If you did everything right and your app has "Home" text on frontpage you

will see this in output</div>

<pre><code>Suite acceptance started

Trying to <b>ensure that frontpage works</b> (WelcomeCept.php) - Ok

Suite functional started

Suite unit started

Time: 1 second, Memory: 21.00Mb

<b>OK (1 test, 1 assertions)</b></code></pre>

<p>Follow the Acceptance Testing chapter to learn how to test your

web application by clicking links, filling forms, as your regular users

do.</p>
