Create Integration Test

Integration Test Generator

Generates PHPUnit 11+ integration tests for PHP 8.4 infrastructure components.

Characteristics

• Real dependencies — uses actual implementations
• Database transactions — rollback after each test
• Isolated — no cross-test contamination
• Slower than unit — acceptable for infrastructure testing

Template

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Tests\Integration\{Namespace};

use {FullyQualifiedClassName};
use PHPUnit\Framework\Attributes\Group;
use Tests\IntegrationTestCase;

#[Group('integration')]
final class {ClassName}Test extends IntegrationTestCase
{
    private {ClassName} $sut;

    protected function setUp(): void
    {
        parent::setUp();
        $this->sut = $this->getContainer()->get({ClassName}::class);
        $this->beginTransaction();
    }

    protected function tearDown(): void
    {
        $this->rollbackTransaction();
        parent::tearDown();
    }

    public function test_{operation}_{scenario}(): void
    {
        // Arrange
        {arrange_code}

        // Act
        {act_code}

        // Assert
        {assert_code}
    }
}

Base Test Case

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Tests;

use Doctrine\DBAL\Connection;
use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
use Psr\Container\ContainerInterface;

abstract class IntegrationTestCase extends TestCase
{
    private static ?ContainerInterface $container = null;
    private ?Connection $connection = null;

    protected function getContainer(): ContainerInterface
    {
        if (self::$container === null) {
            self::$container = require __DIR__ . '/../config/container.php';
        }
        return self::$container;
    }

    protected function beginTransaction(): void
    {
        $this->connection = $this->getContainer()->get(Connection::class);
        $this->connection->beginTransaction();
    }

    protected function rollbackTransaction(): void
    {
        $this->connection?->rollBack();
    }

    protected function getConnection(): Connection
    {
        return $this->connection ?? $this->getContainer()->get(Connection::class);
    }

    public function test_paginates_results(): void
    {
        for ($i = 0; $i < 25; $i++) {
            $this->repository->save(OrderMother::pending());
        }

        $page1 = $this->repository->findAll(limit: 10, offset: 0);
        $page2 = $this->repository->findAll(limit: 10, offset: 10);

Database Setup Options

SQLite In-Memory

<!-- phpunit.xml -->
<php>
    <env name="DATABASE_URL" value="sqlite:///:memory:"/>
</php>

Testcontainers

use Testcontainers\Container\PostgreSqlContainer;

abstract class DatabaseTestCase extends TestCase
{
    protected static ?PostgreSqlContainer $postgres = null;

    public static function setUpBeforeClass(): void
    {
        self::$postgres = PostgreSqlContainer::make('15.0')
            ->withDatabase('test_db')
            ->start();
    }

    public static function tearDownAfterClass(): void
    {
        self::$postgres?->stop();
    }

    protected function getDsn(): string
    {
        return self::$postgres->getDsn();
    }
}

Generation Instructions

1. Identify component type:

   • Repository → Database tests
   • HTTP Client → Mock HTTP responses
   • Message Handler → In-memory transport
   • Cache → Redis/in-memory tests

2. Determine test cases:

   • CRUD operations
   • Query methods
   • Error handling
   • Edge cases (not found, duplicates)

3. Generate base test case if needed:

   • Transaction management
   • Container access
   • Cleanup utilities

4. Generate test class:

   • Match namespace structure
   • Add #[Group('integration')]
   • Setup/teardown with transactions

5. Add test data helpers:

   • Use existing Mothers/Builders
   • Create fixtures for complex scenarios

Usage

Provide:

• Path to infrastructure class
• Database type (SQLite/PostgreSQL/MySQL)
• External services to mock (optional)

The generator will:

1. Analyze the infrastructure class
2. Determine appropriate test patterns
3. Generate comprehensive integration tests
4. Include transaction management
