Scenario test

Scenario test is a case of separate test steps where each step is a distinct class. Test steps can be grouped in any order that makes functional testing more agile comparatively with injectable test.

Scenario test has the following advantages:

Each step in the scenario is a separate PHP class that is placed in the module it belongs to.
Scenario test reduces code duplication because each step can be used multiple times.
Scenario tests are flexible and support Magento modularity.
New test can be easily created using existing steps.

Scenario test is split into four logical components:

test case, which executes tests steps in the order defined in a tests scenario
data set, which contains variations of data and constraints for test steps
test scenario, which defines order of test steps
test step, which contains a test flow

Test case class

Test cases are located in <magento2 root dir>/dev/tests/functional/tests/app/Magento/<module>/Test/TestCase along with corresponding data sets. Each test case is a PHP class that only runs corresponding scenario, it doesn’t contain any other logic than that. In general, the difference between scenario test case and injectable test case is that all test logic is moved to distinct test steps, and their sequence is defined separately in XML file.

Implementation of a scenario test is always the same. You have to change the name of your test case only.

<?php

namespace Magento\YourModule\Test\TestCase;

use Magento\Mtf\TestCase\Scenario;

/**
 * Preconditions:
 * 1. ....
 * 2. ....
  *
 * Steps:
 * 1. ....
 * 2. ....
 * 3. ....
 */
class FunctionalityYouWantToTest extends Scenario
{
    /**
     * Runs the scenario test case for functionality you want to test.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function test()
    {
        $this->executeScenario();
    }
}

Scenario test case is a PHP class that extends the \Magento\Mtf\TestCase\Scenario\ class and implements the test() method that calls executeScenario(). However, the Scenario class is not an interface, so the method can have any other name than test().

Test scenario

Test scenario is a sequence of test steps. Each scenario test case has its own scenario. All scenarios for a module are collected in an XML file located in <magento2 root dir>dev/tests/functional/tests/app/Magento/<module>/Test/etc/testcase.xml.

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../../vendor/magento/mtf/Magento/Mtf/TestCase/etc/testcase.xsd">
    <scenario name="{name of test case}" firstStep="{name of step to be run first}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}" next="{name of test step to be run next}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}" next="{name of test step to be run next}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}" next="{name of test step to be run next}">
    </scenario>
    <scenario name="{name of test case}" firstStep="{name of step to be run first}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}" next="{name of test step to be run next}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}" next="{name of test step to be run next}">
        <step name="{name of test step}" module="{name of the module where the test step is located}">
    </scenario>
</config>

`<scenario>` element

Each <scenario> node defines a name of related test case in name and optionally a name of test step to be run first as firstStep.

Example:

<scenario name="OnePageCheckoutTest" firstStep="setupConfiguration">
...
</scenario>

The example declares a scenario for TestCase/OnePageCheckoutTest.php where <step> with name="setupConfiguration" is to be run first.

`<step>` element

Each scenario contains test steps as <step> child elements. Each <step> requires name and module to define the name of a test step and the module to which it belongs to. All test steps are located in <module>/Test/TestStep.

Example:

<step name="setupConfiguration" module="Magento_Config"/>
<step name="createProducts" module="Magento_Catalog"/>

The example defines the following test steps:

Config/Test/TestStep/SetupConfigurationStep.php
Catalog/Test/TestStep/CreateProductsStep.php

`next` and `prev` attributes

Using next and prev attributes you can specify previous or next test step as part of the node.

The following examples show tangled structure to demonstrate logic of the attributes.

<scenario name="OnePageCheckoutTest" firstStep="setupConfiguration">
    <step name="createProducts" module="Magento_Catalog"/>
    <step name="setupConfiguration" module="Magento_Config" next="createProducts"/>
</scenario>

<scenario name="OnePageCheckoutTest" firstStep="setupConfiguration">
    <step name="createProducts" module="Magento_Catalog" prev="setupConfiguration"/>
    <step name="setupConfiguration" module="Magento_Config"/>
</scenario>

Both examples define the following test steps and their sequence:

Config/Test/TestStep/SetupConfigurationStep.php.
Catalog/Test/TestStep/CreateProductsStep.php.

`alias` attribute

Sometimes you want to use the same test step more then once in your scenario. In this case, you can use the alias attribute to define another name for a step that has been already listed as <step>.

Note that you can use <step> with the same name in a scenario only once.

Example:

<scenario name="OnePageCheckoutTest" firstStep="setupConfiguration">
    <step name="setupConfiguration" module="Magento_Config" next="createProducts"/>
    <step name="createProducts" module="Magento_Catalog" next="setupConfigurationAfter"/>
    <step name="setupConfigurationAfter" alias="setupConfiguration" module="Magento_Config"/>
</scenario>

The example defines the following test steps and their sequence:

Config/Test/TestStep/SetupConfigurationStep.php
Catalog/Test/TestStep/CreateProductsStep.php
Config/Test/TestStep/SetupConfigurationStep.php

Test step class

All test steps are located in <module>/Test/TestStep as PHP classes in the following format:

<?php

namespace Magento\YourModule\Test\TestStep;

use Magento\Mtf\TestStep\TestStepInterface;

class YourTestStep implements TestStepInterface
{
    public function __construct
    (
        // data that are required for this step along with other dependencies.
    ) {
        // all required classes (fixtures, pages, etc.) have to be assigned here.
    };
    
    public function run()
    {
        // logic of the functional test step.
    }
    
    public function cleanup()
    {
        // additional logic to be executed after the test step.
    }
    
}

A tests step must implement Magento\Mtf\TestStep\TestStepInterface and define:

constructor (optional)
public method run() (required)
public method cleanup() (optional)

Let’s see a test step on the example with Magento\Customer\Test\TestStep\LoginCustomerOnFrontendStep.

 namespace Magento\Customer\Test\TestStep;
 
 use Magento\Cms\Test\Page\CmsIndex;
 use Magento\Customer\Test\Fixture\Customer;
 use Magento\Customer\Test\Page\CustomerAccountLogin;
 use Magento\Mtf\TestStep\TestStepInterface;
 
 /**
  * Login customer on frontend.
  */
 class LoginCustomerOnFrontendStep implements TestStepInterface
 {
     /**
      * Customer fixture.
      *
      * @var Customer
      */
     protected $customer;
 
     /**
      * Cms index page.
      *
      * @var CmsIndex
      */
     protected $cmsIndex;
 
     /**
      * Customer login page.
      *
      * @var CustomerAccountLogin
      */
     protected $customerAccountLogin;
 
     /**

     protected $logoutCustomerOnFrontend;
 
     /**

      * @param Customer $customer
      */
     public function __construct(
         CmsIndex $cmsIndex,
         CustomerAccountLogin $customerAccountLogin,
         LogoutCustomerOnFrontendStep $logoutCustomerOnFrontend,
         Customer $customer
     ) {
         $this->cmsIndex = $cmsIndex;
         $this->customerAccountLogin = $customerAccountLogin;
         $this->customer = $customer;
         $this->logoutCustomerOnFrontend = $logoutCustomerOnFrontend;
     }
 
     /**
      * Login customer.
      *
      * @return void
      */
     public function run()
     {
         $this->logoutCustomerOnFrontend->run();
         $this->cmsIndex->getLinksBlock()->openLink('Sign In');
         $this->cmsIndex->getCmsPageBlock()->waitPageInit();
         $this->customerAccountLogin->getLoginBlock()->login($this->customer);
         $this->cmsIndex->getCmsPageBlock()->waitPageInit();
     }
 
     /**
      * Logout customer on fronted.
      *
      * @return void
      */
     public function cleanup()
     {
         $this->logoutCustomerOnFrontend->run();
     }
 }

`constructor()` method

You can optionally use the constructor() method which injects data to be used by run(). The data may include classes like pages, variation data, data returned by previous executed steps, etc.

On the previous example the constructor():

injects the CmsIndex and CustomerAccountLogin pages
injects the LogoutCustomerOnFrontendStep step
injects the Customer fixture data
assigns arguments to corresponding class properties

`run()` method

The run() method is required to perform a test step and contains logic of the step.

On the previous example the run() method:

logs out if the customer was logged in
clicks ‘Sign In’ on the LinksBlock of the cmsIndex page
waits for requested page loading
logs in the customer on the customerAccountLogin page
waits for logging in the customer

`cleanup()` method

The cleanup() method is optional. It serves to reset Magento to initial state or execute any other logic after each variation of a test step.

On the previous example the clean() method:

logs out the customer
