title: How to use a FixtureFactory
How to use a FixtureFactory
The FixtureFactory is used to manually create data structures for use with tests. For more information on fixtures see the Fixtures documentation.
In this how to we'll use a FixtureFactory and a custom blue print for giving us a shortcut for creating new objects
with information that we need.
class MyObjectTest extends SapphireTest {
protected $factory;
function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$factory = Injector::inst()->create('FixtureFactory');
// Defines a "blueprint" for new objects
$factory->define('MyObject', array(
'MyProperty' => 'My Default Value'
));
$this->factory = $factory;
}
function testSomething() {
$MyObjectObj = $this->factory->createObject(
'MyObject',
array('MyOtherProperty' => 'My Custom Value')
);
echo $MyObjectObj->MyProperty;
// returns "My Default Value"
echo $myPageObj->MyOtherProperty;
// returns "My Custom Value"
}
}
