Is this compatible with modern Symfony versions?

Yes, the patterns follow modern PHP and Symfony standards, including support for interfaces and typed properties commonly used in Symfony 5, 6, and 7.

How does this help with test-driven development (TDD)?

By providing quick access to mocking boilerplate, it reduces the friction of setting up test environments, allowing you to focus on defining class behavior.

Does this skill support both PHPUnit and Prophecy?

Yes, it provides comprehensive examples and implementation patterns for both the native PHPUnit mock framework and the Prophecy library.

Can I use this for mocking Symfony-specific components?

Absolutely. It includes specific templates for mocking core Symfony components such as the EntityManager, Repository classes, and the MessageBus.

What is the difference between a mock and a fake in this skill?

The skill differentiates between mocks, which verify specific interactions, and fakes, which are simplified working implementations like in-memory repositories.

安全与测试

Generates PHPUnit mocks, Prophecy doubles, and test fakes to facilitate isolated unit testing within Symfony applications.

关于

This skill empowers developers to write robust unit tests for Symfony projects by providing specialized patterns for creating various test doubles. It streamlines the process of isolating the System Under Test (SUT) from its dependencies, covering everything from basic PHPUnit stubs and expectations to readable Prophecy syntax and high-performance in-memory fakes. With specific guidance for mocking core Symfony components like the EntityManager, Repositories, and the MessageBus, this skill ensures your test suite remains fast, decoupled, and maintainable.

主要功能

Pre-configured logic for handling exceptions and complex callback-based mocking
Template generation for PHPUnit mocks, expectations, and consecutive return values
Implementation guides for 'Fake' objects to replace complex database dependencies
Prophecy trait integration for readable, behavior-driven test doubles
Specific patterns for mocking Symfony services like EntityManagerInterface and MessageBusInterface
21 GitHub stars

使用场景

Testing message dispatching in Symfony Messenger by verifying interactions with the MessageBus
Simulating third-party API failures and retries to verify service resiliency
Mocking database repositories to test business logic without requiring a live database connection
