In PHP blog platforms, how do I write integration tests?

Integration tests are essential for ensuring that different components of your PHP blog platform work together seamlessly. They help validate that the entire application behaves as expected when combining various modules. In this guide, we will explore how to write integration tests for your PHP blog platform.

<?php

use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;

class BlogIntegrationTest extends TestCase
{
    public function testCreatePost()
    {
        // Arrange
        $title = 'Test Post';
        $content = 'This is a test post content.';

        // Act
        $response = $this->post('/posts', [
            'title' => $title,
            'content' => $content
        ]);

        // Assert
        $response->assertStatus(201);
        $this->assertDatabaseHas('posts', [
            'title' => $title,
            'content' => $content
        ]);
    }

    public function testFetchPost()
    {
        // Arrange
        $post = Post::create([
            'title' => 'Another Test Post',
            'content' => 'This is another test post content.'
        ]);

        // Act
        $response = $this->get('/posts/' . $post->id);

        // Assert
        $response->assertStatus(200);
        $response->assertJsonFragment(['title' => 'Another Test Post']);
    }
}

?>
