Functional testing made easy with PHPUnit & Selenium

Learn how to use PHPUnit to test your app in a real browser using Selenium. This hands-on training will show you how to start writing & executing functional (aka end-to-end) tests with Selenium in a minute.

If you already use PHPUnit for your unit tests, there is no need to switch to a different tool or platform just to write functional tests. You can keep productivity from using your familiar environment of PHPUnit and just add some additional integration with Selenium.

So we will take advantage of PHPUnit and php-webdriver integration with Steward library, and use Docker to run Selenium without any other dependencies.

The training will cover:

- setting up local development environment (using Docker)
- practical examples of functional tests implementation
- exploring possibilities of Selenium WebDriver
- parallel test execution using Steward
- hands-on Page Object design pattern
- dealing with asynchronous elements of web-pages (AJAX, JavaScript)
- general tips & tricks how to keep a maintainable suite of functional tests in a long-term
