Zend_Test_PHPUnit and hashed form elements

[Tobias Schifftner]

Hello there,

is there a way of testing forms containing a Zend_Form_Element_Hash? For example when you have a login form.

Thx,
Tobias

You may need to specify an alternate Zend_Session_Namespace extension to
ensure the hops are expired correctly; you may want to look at the Hash
unit tests to see how Stas tested that component.

Hello Matthew,

thanks for your answer. But I don't actually try to test the hashed element. I just wanna test a form containing it. But whenever a form contains a hash element, I'm unable to process the form. For example the login form:

        $form = new Zend_Form(array(
            'action'   => '/login',
            'method'   => 'post',
            'name'   => 'loginForm',
            'elements' => array(
                'username' => array('text', array(
                    'validators' => array(
                        'alnum',
                        array('regex', false, array('/^[a-z]/i')),
                        array('stringLength', false, array(6, 20))
                    ),
                    'required' => true,
                    'label' => 'Username',
                    'filters'  => array('StringToLower'),
                 )),
                'password' => array('password', array(
                    'validators' => array(
                        array('stringLength', false, array(6))
                    ),
                    'required' => true,
                    'label' => 'Password',
                )),
                #'hash' => 'hash',
                'submit' => 'submit',
                )
            ));



    function testLogin()
    {
        $this->dispatch('/');
        $this->request
             ->setMethod('POST')
             ->setPost(array(
                 'username' => 'username',
                 'password' => 'password'
             ));
        $this->dispatch('/login');
        $this->assertModule('ucp');
        $this->assertController('auth');
        $this->assertAction('login');
        $this->assertRedirectTo('/');
        $this->dispatch('/');
        $this->assertTrue(Zend_Auth::getInstance()->hasIdentity());
        $this->assertEquals((int) User::get('userId'), 1);
        $this->resetResponse();
        $this->request->setPost(array());
    }

As soon as I disable the hash element it processes fine. Any ideas?

By the way: Thanks for the great work on ZF - it's really awesome!

I recommended looking at the Hash element tests as they may give you an
idea of how to write tests against forms that contain a Hash element
that will work with the controller test cases.

I'll see if I can find a solution, but you'll likely need to wait until
after the 1.6 final release.

Ah, ok. Now I see what you mean. I looked at it and it seems that you have to provide a valid hash taken from the session. This would be a way, but in my opinion tests should not contain more information as a user has with a browser. When I write a form this form should work the same way in the browser as in the PHPUnit_TestCase. Don't you think?

Well, may be I'm totally wrong here. Let's see what the 1.6 final release will bring. ;-)
Thank you!

As I noted, I have limited time to work on this particular issue, and
have no other issues logged against Zend_Test_PHPUnit. If you can come
up with an adequate solution, I'll gladly patch; otherwise, post an
issue, and I'll look into it following the 1.6.0 final release.

Excellent, thanks. I'll see if I can address it today; if not, at the
latest we'll likely have a mini-release in a week or so after the 1.6.0
final release.
