<h1>Writing a Functional Web Test</h1>
<p>In addition to unit testing, we shall also do some functional
testing or web testing. Functional tests are, in this case, basically automated tests that will
interact with the overall web application, as if it was the user, while checking the output for correctness.
The functional test tool we shall use here is based on <a href="http://selenium.openqa.org/">Selenium</a> where the test cases can be written and run using PHP and SimpleTest.
</p>
<com:TTextHighlighter>
<?php
class HelloPradoTestCase extends SeleniumTestCase
{
function test()
{
$this->open('../index.php');
$this->assertTextPresent('Welcome to Prado!');
}
}
?>
</com:TTextHighlighter>
<p>Save the code as <tt>HelloPradoTestCase.php</tt> in the <tt>document_root/time-tracker/tests/functional/</tt>
directory.</p>
<p>
Functional test cases are written very similar to unit test cases. The method such as
<tt>open($url)</tt> are those found in Selenium. All the methods available in Selenium are available.
</p>
<h2>Run your first unit test case from your browser</h2>
<p>Point your browser to your development server's unit test case runner, e.g.
<tt>http://web-server-address/time-tracker/tests/functional.php</tt>. You should see the following
<img src="<%~ functional_test1.png %>" class="figure"/>
<div class="caption"><b>Figure 4:</b> Functional test runner</div>
</p>
<p>Clicking on the <b>All</b> button, you should see
<img src="<%~ functional_test2.png %>" class="figure"/>
<div class="caption"><b>Figure 5:</b> Functional test success</div>
</p>
