Notes
WordPress packages a bunch of functionality for us to use in our integration tests. You extend off of the WP_UnitTestCase
to gain access to things like:
- Factory for creating post content (i.e. posts, pages, and custom post types), terms, users, etc.)
- Loading a URL via
go_to()
- Query tests to check that you did load the right stuff
- Setup for the query, global states, etc.
- Resets to return us to that original setup state, query, etc.
Let’s talk about it in this episode.
