Hi Gary, sick shit! but is the api still working? I'm not able to navigate to the page of the api and not able to fetch any data.. getting a 403 response gr thijs
I've not checked recently but no one else has mentioned it. 403 means there's some kind of problem with your creds. You set up auth the same way as me?
As for a fresh graduate programmer this course helped me A LOT while solving the technical task required for job application. Thank you, learned so many new things while double watching this course
Thank you so much for this high quality content. I learned so much from this video and appreciate how you explained all the details. After I failed with Symfony 5.2 - I had a dependency version conflict with DAMA/doctrine ... - I was able to recode everything with Symfony 5.3 nicely.
@@GaryClarkeTech never used sqlite before and was getting a DriverException from Doctrine when running the first test, just sharing in case someone encounters the same problem. Fixed it by installing sqlite and uncommenting the sqlite lines in /etc/php/php.ini Thinking that maybe starting the tutorials by creating the docker containers in which to work would eliminate this kind of local dependency issues for viewers.
In the price tests, you should test for assertIsNumeric because sometimes it sends back whole dollar amounts with no cents (and it does't display xx.00) when that happens, the test will fail.
Wow ! I didn't think that in-memory DB can be used for unit tests , thank you ! It indeed makes sense, because these DB are temporary, and each test have its own DB... This will avoid me to use mock objects to use the EntityManager then 🙂!
Hmm I have a stupid question maybe :) Should tests belong in the main repo ? On the dev branch ? Or just keep them locally on my machine ? Because eventually what's on the dev branch will eventually be merged in the production and deployed.
Excellent tutorial, but you have extracted the finance API to an interface which completely dependent on Yahoo API, the fetch method should not have any arguments bonded to a specific API, maybe the next API does not require the symbol and region.
I'm traying to do it, but in the minute 13:17 get this error: 1) App\Tests\StockTest::a_stock_record_can_be_created_in_the_database Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\MappingException: Class "App\Entity\Stock" is not a valid entity or mapped super class. Some idea?
Thank you very much for this awesome tutorial, even the speech flow is perfect ! It is good to see the concrete process of TDD. Do you think that it is possible to extend the process from the user story to the set of tests that should be created ? For exemple which user story could have led to the tests functions ? Again thanks a lot !
I am using a newer version of Symfony. All my tests are fine, but when I run the command, I get a "syntax error" reported from JsonDecode.php. However, there is no other information about what is causing this. I have not debugged yet (I have the hardest time getting xdebug to work with cli apps, but I will get there). Curious if anyone else has come across this error or has any ideas?
Hey Gary, thanks for the video. I am using symfony v6.2 and so far followed everything. in 13:10 of the video I get this error: There was 1 error: 1) App\Tests\StockTest::a_stock_record_can_be_created_in_db Error: Call to a member function persist() on null C:\wamp64\www\phpunit\tests\StockTest.php:45 Any idea what might be the cause?
Yes..looks like you don't have an entity manager...you're getting null instead. Dump out your entity manager using dd() and see what you get then work backwards to figure out where you went wrong with it.
I can't remember why I used it in this vid without watching it again. But symfony composer is used mainly for some shortcuts. If I need to have the symfony server for some things e.g. symfony server env vars then I'll prefix the command with symfony
Have a question about the first unit test. Isn't this actually integrational test ? Because it interacts with the database ? We are not checking some isolated functionality but creating record and retrieving it.
Thanks for the video Gary, but i got an issue at 42min in the video. I want to test YahooFinanceApiClientTest in integration folder, and i got 'Undefined property: stdClass::$price' i think its due this line off code: $stockProfile = json_decode($response->getContent())->price; any idea's? Thx
I can't really remember..it was recorded a while ago. But being able to demonstrate using the container for test replacements was part of the thinking.
Hi Gary, great course, thanks a lot! I have created services_test.yaml with fake implementation but functional test is still using Amazon Api instead of fake implementation. I'm using Symfony 5.3. In your video you are using Symfony 5.2. Are there any changes in naming convention for yaml with tesing config?
Hi Krzysztof...no, config/services_test.yaml is still a thing in S5.3. You'll need to retrace your steps. Is your fake implementing YahooFinanceApiClientInterface?
Thanks for this video Gary! I have a question. I get an error when i use setUp in StockTest.php: Method 'App\Tests\StockTest::setUp()' is not compatible with method 'Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\KernelTestCase::setUp()' Do you know what causes this problem? Maybe it is because i use symfony 4? If so how can i fix this for symfony 4 because i need to use it for my usecase
@@GaryClarkeTech I made a typo using Orm instead ORM in databaseprimer file. But now i have another problem because when i run the test it says: Caused by Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDO\Exception: could not find driver And: Caused by PDOException: could not find driver
Great tutorial! Thanks. I am running into an issue though. Somehow it will not set that its running on the test environment. dd($kernel->getEnvironment()) on the DatabasePrimer will output 'dev' and then fail the check. Also it will not call the FakeYahooFinanceApiClient but the regular one. Seems that it is not at all obeying services_test.yaml. I did compare my code to your repo and all seems fine. I am using Symfony 5.4. Any ideas?
@@GaryClarkeTech Thanks for replying. Yes, is there. Actually I downloaded your full code and updated to Symfony 5.4 ( 5.2 would not resolve) and the same issue there: $kernel->getEnvironment() is still returning 'dev'
i dont understand, i did everything ike you and i got this error when i tried to run test Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDO\Exception: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1 no such table: product
