POCakephp 2.0 mock auth
text
Body
copied!<p>I am developing an app in Cake 2.2, and am currently writing some unit tests. The model tests are working fine, i have some issues with the controller tests in general.</p> <p>The situation: - most of the actions require a user login - there are custom components and vendor libraries - I have fixtures for all tables</p> <p>The problem: - Many actions use the "$this->Auth->user()" method to get the user-data - If i write a test for that action, the user-data is (obviously) not existant</p> <p>My (not working) solution: - I tried to mock the auth component, so that it would contain the user-method and always return a static array containing the user data, but it returns null, here's the code:</p> <pre><code>$Days = $this->generate('Days', array('components' => 'Auth')); $Days->Auth->expects($this->once())->method('user')->will($this->returnValue(array(..userdata etc.))); $result = $this->testAction('/days/settings'); </code></pre> <p>It just keeps saying that the method was not called (altough the settings method inside the Days controller calls it exactly one time). What is wrong with the mockup? Hmmm..</p> <p>Any help would be appreciated!</p> <p>-edit- The code of the method that is being tested:</p> <pre><code>public function myDays() { $user = $this->Auth->user(); $days = $this->Day->find('all', array('conditions' => array('user_id' => $user['id'], 'active' => 1))); $this->set('days', $days); } </code></pre>
