[fw-general] Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase with bootstrap php file

[Peter Wansch]

I wrote the following unit test case:

class Ggv_LoginTest extends Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase
{
    public $bootstrap = '/Library/WebServer/Documents/GGV/www/index.php';

    public function testCallWithoutActionShouldPullFromIndexAction()
    {
        $this->dispatch('/');
        $this->assertResponseCode(200);
    }

    public function testValidLoginShouldGoToIndexPage()
    {
        $this->request->setMethod('POST')
              ->setPost(array(
                  'user_name' => TESTS_LOGIN_NAME,
                  'user_password' => TESTS_LOGIN_PASSWORD
              ));
        $this->dispatch('/GGV/www/user/login/');
        $this->assertResponseCode(200);
    }
}

The first test case that dispatches to '/' works. The second test case that
dispatches to throws Zend_Controller_Exception: No default module defined
for this application. I use the same index.php bootstrap file for running
the application and testing the application. Here is a relevant excerpt:

defined('GGV_DISPATCH_FRONT_CONTROLLER') or
define('GGV_DISPATCH_FRONT_CONTROLLER', true);

    // Set the session into the registry
    Zend_Registry::set('session', $session);

    // Set up the front controller and dispatch
    $front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
    $front->registerPlugin(new LoggerPlugin());
    $front->throwExceptions(false);
    $front->setControllerDirectory(GGV_PATH_ROOT .
'/application/controllers');
    $front->setBaseUrl($config->www->baseurl);
    if (GGV_DISPATCH_FRONT_CONTROLLER)
    {
        $front->dispatch();
    }

the only difference is that in my test case I require_once a test
configuration PHP file that defines GGV_DISPATCH_FRONT_CONTROLLER to false
as per the documentation the bootstrap file must not dispatch the front
controller. Unlike all the samples given, I don't use a Bootstrap class or
callback in my testcase. It appears that Zend_Test does not use the $front
controller I setup in my index.php but creates it's own which isn't
initialized and throws the error.

I have also experimented with adding a setUp

public function setUp()
    {
        // Execute any startup code here
        parent::setUp();
    }

method into my testcase and trying to set the $this->frontController=$front
but the global variable that gets set in index.php is not available. What am
I doing wrong here? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Peter
