Fixture represents a fixed state of a test environment.

Each fixture instance represents a particular aspect of a test environment. For example, you may use UserFixture to initialize the user database table with a set of known data. You may load the fixture when running every test method so that the user table always contains the fixed data and thus allows your test predictable and repeatable.

A fixture may depend on other fixtures, specified via the $depends property. When a fixture is being loaded, its dependent fixtures will be automatically loaded BEFORE the fixture; and when the fixture is being unloaded, its dependent fixtures will be unloaded AFTER the fixture.

You should normally override load() to specify how to set up a fixture; and override unload() for clearing up a fixture.

For more details and usage information on Fixture, see the guide article on fixtures.

public array $depends = []

Method Details

afterLoad() public method

This method is called AFTER all fixture data have been loaded for the current test.

public void afterLoad ( )
afterUnload() public method

This method is called AFTER all fixture data have been unloaded for the current test.

public void afterUnload ( )
beforeLoad() public method

This method is called BEFORE any fixture data is loaded for the current test.

public void beforeLoad ( )
beforeUnload() public method

This method is called BEFORE any fixture data is unloaded for the current test.

public void beforeUnload ( )
load() public method

Loads the fixture.

This method is called before performing every test method. You should override this method with concrete implementation about how to set up the fixture.

public void load ( )
unload() public method

Unloads the fixture.

This method is called after every test method finishes. You may override this method to perform necessary cleanup work for the fixture.

public void unload ( )
