2.3.8

Fixes

• ModuleResolver will now only scan under MAGENTO_BP/app/code/... and MAGENTO_BP/vendor/... for /Test/Mftf directories.
• Fixed an issue where Test.xml files that did not end with *Test.xml would not be scanned for duplicates and other XML validation.

2.3.7

Enhancements

• Traceability
  • Test generation errors output xml filename where they were encountered, as well as xml parent nodes where applicable.
  • Duplicate element detection now outputs parent element where duplicate was found.
• Maintainability
  • Standalone MFTF can now be pointed at a Magento installation folder to generate and execute tests.
    • See DevDocs for more information.
  • MFTF now checks for test and actionGroup elements that have the same name in the same file.

  • Updated prefered syntax for actionGroup arguments that use xml.data (old syntax is still supported)
    • Old: xml.data
    • New: {{xml.data}}

• Modularity

  • ModuleResolver now utilizes each Magento module's registration.php to map MFTF test material directories.

    Fixes

2.3.6

Enhancements

• Maintainability
  • A -r or --remove flag has been introduced to bin/mftf commands to clear out the contents of the _generated folder before generation. This flag has been added to the following commands:
    • generate:tests
    • generate:suite
    • run:test
    • run:group
• Customizability
  • Persisted data handling mechanisms have been reworked.
    • All persisted data is now referenced with the single $ syntax (old syntax is still supported):
      • $persistedData.field$
    • Persisted data resolution now starts in its own scope and broadens if no matching stepKey was found in the current scope.
    • Added support for referencing suite persisted data in tests.
    • Added support for removing data created in between test scopes (test, before/after, suite).
  • An attribute skipReadiness has been added to all test actions, allowing the individual test action to completely bypass the ReadinessExtension if it is enabled.

Fixes

• To prevent Allure reporting from collating tests with identical title, the testCaseId annotation is now automatically prepended to the title annotation when tests are generated.
• The magentoCLI command now correctly removes index.php if it is present in the MAGENTO_BASE_URL.
• Invalid XML errors now indicate which XML file caused the error.
• Attempting to extend a test that does not exist now skips the generation of the test.
• Fixed an issue where a suite would generate invalid PHP if the before or after contained only createData actions.
• Fixed an issue where a selector inside an actionGroup would incorrectly append the actionGroup's stepKey to the selector.

2.3.5

Fixes

• Removed PageReadinessExtension from default enabled extensions due to Jenkins instability.

2.3.4

Fixes

• MagentoWebDriver overrides parent::_after() function and remaps to runAfter(), necessary to solve compatibility issues in Codeception 2.3.x.

2.3.3

Fixes

• Defaults in etc/config/functional.suite.dist.yml changed: window-size to 1280x1024, and removed --ingonito flag.

2.3.2

Fixes

• The executeJs function no longer escapes persisted variables referenced via $$persisted.key$$.
• Extending a test no longer fails to generate the parent test's before/after blocks if the parent was skipped.

2.3.1

Enhancements

• Maintainability
  • mftf build:project now copies over the command.php file into the parent Magento installation, if detected.

2.3.0

Enhancements

• Traceability
  • MFTF now outputs generation run-time information, warnings, and errors to an mftf.log file.
  • Overall error messages for various generation errors have been improved. Usage of the --debug flag provides file-specific errors for all XML-related errors.
  • Allure Reports now require a unique story and title combination, to prevent collisions in Allure Report generation.
  • The features annotation now ignores user input and defaults to the module the test lives under (for clear Allure organization).
  • The <group value="skip"/> annotation has been replaced with a <skip> annotation, allowing for nested IssueId elements.
  • Tests now require the following annotations: stories, title, description, severity.
    • This will be enforced in a future major release.
• Modularity
  • MFTF has been decoupled from MagentoCE:
    • MFTF can now generate and run tests by itself via bin/mftf commands.
    • It is now a top level MagentoCE dependency, and no longer relies on supporting files in MagentoCE.
    • It can be used as an isolated dependency for Magento projects such as extensions.
  • generate:tests now warns the user if any declared <page> has an inconsistent module (Backend vs Magento_Backend)
  • The --force flag now completely ignores checking of the Magento Installation, allowing generation of tests without a Magento Instance to be running.
• Customizability
  • Various test materials can now be extended via an extends="ExistingMaterial" attribute. This allows for creation of simple copies of any entity, actionGroup, or test, with small modifications.
  • test and actionGroup deltas can now be provided in bulk via a before/after attribute on the test or actionGroup element. Deltas provided this way do not need individual before/after attributes, and are inserted sequentially.
  • Secure and sensitive test data can now be stored and used via a new .credentials file, with declaration and usage syntax similar to .env file references.
  • A new <generateDate> action has been added to allow users to create and use dates according to the given date and format.
    • See DevDocs for more information on all above Customizability features.
• Maintainability
  • New bin/mftf commands have been introduced with parity to existing robo commands.
    • robo commands are still supported, but will be deprecated in a future major release.
  • The mftf upgrade:tests command has been introduced, which runs all test upgrade scripts against the provided path.
    • A new upgrade script was created to replace all test material schema paths to instead use a URN path.
  • The mftf generate:urn-catalog command has been introduced to create a URN catalog in PHPStorm to support the above upgrade.
  • A warning is now shown on generation if a page's url is referenced without specifying the url ({{page}} vs {{page.url}}).
  • An error is now thrown if any test materials contain any overriding element (eg different <element>s in a <section> with the same name)
    • This previously would cause the last read element to override the previous, causing a silent but potentially incorrect test addition.
  • Test distribution algorithm for --config parallel has been enhanced to take average step length into account.

Fixes

• _after hook of tests now executes if a non test-related failure causes the test to error.
• Fixed periods in Allure Report showing up as •.
• Fixed Windows incompatibility of relative paths in various files.
• Suites will no longer generate if they do not contain any tests.
• Fixed an issue in generation where users could not use javascript variables in executeJS actions.
• Fixed an issue in generation where entity replacement in action-groups replaced all entities with the first reference found.
• Fixed an issue in generation where createData actions inside actionGroups could not properly reference the given createDataKey.
• Fixed an issue where suites could not generate if they included an actionGroup with two arguments.
• Fixed an issue in generation where calling the same entity twice (with different parameters) would replace both calls with the first resolved value.
• The magentoCLI action now correctly executes the given command if the MAGENTO_BASE_URL contains index.php after the domain (ex https://magento.instance/index.php)
• The stepKey attribute can no longer be an empty.
• Variable substitution has been enabled for regex and command attributes in test actions.

GitHub Issues/Pull requests:

2.2.0

Enhancements

• Traceability
  • Javascript errors are now logged and reported in test output.
  • Test failures are no longer overwritten by failures in an <after> hook.
  • Tests will no longer execute an <after> hook twice if a failure triggered in the <after> hook.
  • Tests marked with <group value="skip"> will now appear in generated Allure reports.
    • Along with the above, the robo group command no longer omits the skip group (skipped tests are picked up but not fully executed).
• Modularity
  • MFTF no longer relies on relative pathing to determine its path to tests or Magento (favoring composer information if available).
  • Tests and test materials are now read in from Magento modules as well as extensions in addition to dev/tests/acceptance.
    • See DevDocs Getting Started for details on expected paths and merge order.
• Customizability
  • Creation of Suites is now supported
    • <suite> can include tests via name, module, or <group> tags.

    • See MFTF Devdocs "Suite" page for more details.
  • <deleteData> may now be called against a url instead of a stepKey reference.
  • <dragAndDrop> may now be given an additional x/y offset.
  • <executeJS> now returns a variable based on what the executed script returns.
  • Added <element> type="block".
  • <page> elements may now be blank (contain no child sections).
• Maintainability
  • robo generate:tests --config parallel now accepts a --lines argument, for grouping and sorting based on test length.
  • robo generate:tests now checks for:
    • Duplicate step keys within an actionGroup.
    • Ambiguous or invalid stepKey references (in merge files).
  • robo generate:tests now suppresses warnings by default. The command now accepts a --verbose flag to show full output including warnings.

Fixes

• Exception message for the <conditionalClick> action now correctly references the selector given.
• Usage of multiple parameterized elements in a selector now correctly resolves all element references.
• Usage of multiple uniqueness references on the same entity now generate correctly.
• Persisted entity references are correctly interpolated with <page> url of type="admin".
• Metadata that contains 2 or more params in its url now correctly resolve parameters.
• Arguments can now be passed to x and y attributes in actionGroup.

    • magento2ce/vendor/[vendor]/[module]/Test/Acceptance
    • magento2ce/app/code/[vendor]/[module]/Test/Acceptance
• Maintainability
  • Robo command generate:tests now accepts a --nodes argument that specifies the number of test manifest files to generate for parallel configuration.

Fixes

• Data returned by grab and createData actions can now be used in <actionGroup> test steps by their stepKey reference.
• Fixed an issue where <requiredEntity> elements inside <entity> data xml would overwrite one another when merged.
• Fixed an issue where <object> elements inside <operation> metadata xml would overwrite one another when merged.
• Nested assertion syntax now correctly allows for values passed in to resolve {{entity.data}} references.
• Test action <selectMultiOption> now correctly resolves entity references passed in to filterSelector and optionSelector.

• All feature and story annotations now live under in the method and not class level in output test php.
  • This is to work around a bug with the Allure-Codeception adapter version 1.2.6, which was a dependency update in MFTF 2.1.0.

2.1.0

Enhancements

• Traceability
  • Severity in <annotation> tags now properly reflect Magento severity values.
• Modularity
  • Added ability to pass in simple values to actionGroups via addition of type attribute in actionGroup <argument> declaration.
    • For examples, see devdocs article on actionGroups.
  • Merging resolution now depends on Magento instance's installed modules. This also means merging order now follows the expected module merging order.
• Customizability
  • Added <assertArrayIsSorted> action. This action takes in an array of data and asserts that the array is properly sorted, according to the provided sortOrder
  • Added <selectMultipleOptions> action. This is a variation of <searchAndSelectOptions> that is given a filterSelector, optionSelector, and an <array> of options to select.
    • For a working sample, see SearchAndMultiselectActionGroup.xml under Catalog in magento2ce.
  • Test actions that deal with <url...> now utilize and grab the page's full url, not just the /path?query#fragment portion.
  • All <assert...> actions support a clearer, more readable nested syntax.
    • Both old and new syntax are supported. See devdocs Assertions article for examples.
  • Added support for overriding a data-entity's field values during test runtime, prior to persistence via <createData> actions.
  • Added removeBackend="true" attribute to <operation>. Only applicable to operation definitions of type="adminFormKey", attribute prevents pre-pending of MAGENTO_BACKEND_NAME to the url specified.
    • Specific to use case where adminFormKey operations don't follow MAGENTO_BASE_URL/MAGENTO_BACKEND_NAME/MAGENTO_BACKEND_NAME/API_URL format.
• Readability
  • Data Entities used in tests (<test>, <page>, <section>, <element>, <data>) now require alphanumeric naming.
• Maintainability
  • Documentation for all test actions have been added to XML schema. Turning on documentation hinting will display relevant information while writing test XML.
  • All references to .env file contents are now resolved at test runtime, as opposed to generation.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue with using the character - in parameterized selector references.
  • Users should now be able to use any characters except for ' when providing a 'stringLiteral' to a parameterized selector/url.
• Fixed an issue where entity substitution was not enabled in all <assert...> test actions.

GitHub Issues/Pull requests:

• #37 -- Unable to make API requests using self signed certificate to HTTPS domain (fixed in #39)

2.0.3

Enhancements

• Readability
  • Added the ability to refer to custom_attribute data in persisted entities via key instead of index.
    • ex. url_key in category entity: $category.custom_attributes[3][value]$ and $category.custom_attributes[url_key]$ are both valid.
• Maintainability
  • Added check for duplicate stepKey attributes at test generation. This check is scoped to <testAction> tags within a single <test> tag in a single file.

Fixes

• Fixed inability to use <actionGroup> with <arguments> in test hooks.
• Fixed inability to use 0 as data in an entity.
• Fixed an issue where using <annotation> tag of <useCaseId> would cause test generation failures.

• Fixed an issue where specifying duplicate test actions in test delta's would cause generation errors.
• Fixed an issue where test failure screenshots were being taken at the end of the test hook, as opposed to at the point of failure.
• Operation metadata with an auth of type adminFormKey will now automatically append specified MAGENTO_BACKEND_NAME if necessary.

2.0.2

Enhancements

• Customizability
  • Added the <magentoCLI> test action. Action takes the given command="" and passes it for execution in Magento Environment.
    • Note: Installation step to enable above action has been added. See Step 5 in the MFTF Getting Started article.
• Maintainability
  • Tests now run actions declared in <after> hook in both successful and failed test runs.

Fixes

• Fixed inability to use [] characters within selector/url parameters.
• Fixed a bug where the <formatMoney> action did not return a variable for test use.
• Fixed a bug where the <waitForLoadingMaskToDisappear> action could not be used twice in an <actionGroup>.

2.0.1

Fixes

• Fixed an issue with group annotation.

2.0.0

Enhancements

• Modularity
  • Replaced the <loginAsAdmin> test action with the action group LoginAsAdmin.

  • Added the <page area=".."> property to distinguish between admin and storefront.
  • Added support for SectionName.elementName references in any function attributes.
• Customizability
  • Changed page objects where area="admin" to prepend the MAGENTO_BACKEND_NAME value from the .env file.
  • Added support for HTTP requests that do not require authentication.
• Readability
