Hi everyone,
Looking for some guidance as I’m at my wits end after two days trying to get this. I’m writing a BDD test for a model that extends ActiveEntity. I’d like to be using the .isValid() method in my tests just as I would in my application code. I’m testing to make sure the constraints are all there on the model and the correct rules are in place.
Wirebox cannot seem to locate ValdiationManager@cbvalidation when running isValid() from the tests. That function in ActiveEntity.cfc runs var validationManager = application.wirebox.getInstance( “ValidationManager@cbvalidation” );
Here’s what i have ( I stripped some other tests out):
cborm is installed to /modules/cborm and its dependency cbvalidation is in /modules/crborm/modules/cbvalidation – as expected.
/tests/spec/unit/UserTest.cfc:
`
component extends=“coldbox.system.testing.BaseModelTest” model=“models.User”{
function beforeAll(){
// load ColdBox
this.loadColdbox = true;
// setup the model
super.setup();
// init the model object
model.init();;
}
function afterAll(){
this.unloadColdbox = true;
}
function run(){
describe( “models.User Suite”, function(){
beforeEach(function( currentSpec ){
// Setup as a new ColdBox request for this suite, VERY IMPORTANT. ELSE EVERYTHING LOOKS LIKE THE SAME REQUEST.
setup();
ormService = getMockBox().createMock( “cborm.models.BaseORMService” );
mockEH = getMockBox().createEmptyMock(“cborm.models.EventHandler”);
});
describe( “property contraints”, function(){
describe( “username”, function(){
it( “should be required”, function(){
user = ormService.new( “User”);
expect( user.isValid() ).toBeFalse();
user.setUsername(‘abcdefghijk’);
expect( user.isValid() ).toBeTrue();
});
});
});
});
}
}
`
/models/User.cfc
`
component entityName=“User” persistent=“true” table=“users” extends=“models.BaseEntity” {
// Primary Key
property name=“id” fieldtype=“id” generator=“uuid”;
// Properties
property name=“userName” ormtype=“string” index=“userName”;
// Validation
this.constraints = {
userName = {
required = true,
min = 6
}
};
// Constructor
User function init() {
return this;
}
}
`
/tests/Application.cfc
`
component{
// APPLICATION CFC PROPERTIES
this.name = “ColdBoxTestingSuite” & hash(getCurrentTemplatePath());
this.sessionManagement = true;
this.sessionTimeout = createTimeSpan( 0, 0, 15, 0 );
this.applicationTimeout = createTimeSpan( 0, 0, 15, 0 );
this.setClientCookies = true;
// Create testing mapping
this.mappings[ “/tests” ] = getDirectoryFromPath( getCurrentTemplatePath() );
// Map back to its root
rootPath = REReplaceNoCase( this.mappings[ “/tests” ], “tests(\|/)”, “” );
this.mappings["/root"] = rootPath;
this.mappings["/app-core"] = “…/”;
this.mappings["/appcore"] = “…/”;
this.mappings[ “/cborm” ] = “…/modules/cborm”;
this.mappings[ “/cbi18n” ] = “…/modules/cborm/modules/cbi18n”;
this.mappings[ “/cbvalidation” ] = “…/modules/cborm/modules/cbvalidation”;
this.datasources[“app_core_test”] = {
class: ‘org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver’
, connectionString: ‘theConnString’
, username: ‘root’
, password: “mms888”
};
this.ormenabled = true;
this.ormsettings = {
cfclocation = [“models”],
datasource = “app_core_test”,
dbcreate = “dropcreate”,
useDBForMapping = false,
// Active ORM events
eventHandling = true,
dialect = “MySQL5”,
// Use the ColdBox WireBox Handler for events
eventHandler = “cborm.models.EventHandler”,
autoManageSession = false,
logSQL = true
};
// request start
public boolean function onRequestStart(String targetPage){
if ( structKeyExists( url, “reload_orm”) ) {
ormReload();
}
return true;
}
}
`
Everything is in /Application.cfc, /config/Coldbox.cfc, and /config/Wirebox.cfc are pretty much default scaffold from standing up a new app via CommandBox
I’ve tried quite a few different things. I’ve tried mocking ValidationManager but that seemed to be a rabbit hole of mocking it’s dependencies, and it’s dependencies dependencies.
I have looked at cborm’s tests for ActiveEntity::isValid() and tried mocking my User model much the same and didn’t have luck either.
Help is greatly appreciated. Great thanks!
