Setting Up PHPUnit Testing for Drupal in DDEV: A Step-by-Step Guide
Pasan Gamage has published a detailed guide on setting up and executing PHPUnit tests for Drupal projects using DDEV, a Docker-based development environment, addressing a lack of resources on the subject. Gamage’s post on Medium walks through the setup process, highlighting prerequisites like Composer, Docker, and DDEV.
Using a demo Drupal project, he outlines steps from configuring DDEV and setting up dependencies to executing unit and functional tests, as well as preparing the environment for Functional JavaScript tests with a Selenium Chrome driver. He emphasizes the importance of using a dedicated 'phpunit.xml' file and explain modifications for compatibility within DDEV. While Functional JavaScript tests remain slated for future discussion, Pasan’s post provides developers with actionable steps to streamline PHPUnit testing in a containerized Drupal environment.
