Automated Testing Kit D7

Automated Testing Kit D7 (ATK) is a suite of tests and useful functions for end-to-end testing using Cypress and Playwright specifically for Drupal 7 sites. ATK for Drupal 10+ website is located at https://www.drupal.org/project/automated_testing_kit. ATK D7 has tests for Playwright (but not Cypress).

Like the original project, this projects has tests for:

  • basic login/logout via the UI
  • registration and confirmation of the email via a fake SMTP service (ethereal.email)
  • integration of the QA Accounts module
  • basic tests of node, taxonomy, media and user entities.
  • executing Drush commands via aliases or to Pantheon via Terminus and ssh
  • much more

ATK works in the following environments:

  • on the native OS (i.e. macOS/Linux)
  • native OS + a container (via DDEV/Lando/Docksal)
  • within a container.

Use Docker images provided by the Playwright team Playwright documentation).

FAQ

Q: I'm just starting. Which testing framework should I use, Cypress or Playwright or something else?

A: Automated Testing Kit D7 currently has tests just for Playwright. To learn about the difference between Cypress and Playwright, you'll find many videos and blog posts comparing the tools in the Learning Resources area of the documentation.
