Kernel tests in Drupal enable module integration testing with Drupal core systems in a bootstrapped environment. Kernel tests bridge the gap between unit and functional tests. This tutorial focuses on writing kernel tests for the anytown module, specifically to test the ForecastClient service's caching logic and custom username validation.
In this tutorial, we'll:
- Explore the parts of a kernel test.
- Write kernel tests for anytown module features.
- Use mocks and the Drupal container in kernel tests.
By the end of this tutorial, you should be able to get started writing kernel tests to verify your module's integration with Drupal core.
Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
