CDbTestCase

public $fixtures=array(
    'posts' => 'Post',
    'comments' => 'Comment',
);

Property Details

fixtures property

protected array $fixtures;

a list of fixtures that should be loaded before each test method executes. The array keys are fixture names, and the array values are either AR class names or table names. If table names, they must begin with a colon character (e.g. 'Post' means an AR class, while ':post' means a table name). Defaults to false, meaning fixtures will not be used at all.

Method Details

__call() method

public mixed __call(string $name, string $params)

public function __call($name,$params)
{
    if(is_array($this->fixtures) && isset($params[0]) && ($record=$this->getFixtureManager()->getRecord($name,$params[0]))!==false)
        return $record;
    else
        throw new Exception("Unknown method '$name' for class '".get_class($this)."'.");
}

PHP magic method. This method is overridden so that named fixture ActiveRecord instances can be accessed in terms of a method call.

__get() method

public mixed __get(string $name)

public function __get($name)
{
    if(is_array($this->fixtures) && ($rows=$this->getFixtureManager()->getRows($name))!==false)
        return $rows;
    else
        throw new Exception("Unknown property '$name' for class '".get_class($this)."'.");
}

PHP magic method. This method is overridden so that named fixture data can be accessed like a normal property.

getFixtureData() method

public array getFixtureData(string $name)

public function getFixtureData($name)
{
    return $this->getFixtureManager()->getRows($name);
}

getFixtureManager() method

public CDbFixtureManager getFixtureManager()

public function getFixtureManager()
{
    return Yii::app()->getComponent('fixture');
}

getFixtureRecord() method

public CActiveRecord getFixtureRecord(string $name, string $alias)

public function getFixtureRecord($name,$alias)
{
    return $this->getFixtureManager()->getRecord($name,$alias);
}

setUp() method

protected void setUp()

protected function setUp()
{
    parent::setUp();
    if(is_array($this->fixtures))
        $this->getFixtureManager()->load($this->fixtures);
}

Sets up the fixture before executing a test method. If you override this method, make sure the parent implementation is invoked. Otherwise, the database fixtures will not be managed properly.
