Test actions

Actions in the MFTF allow you to automate different scenarios of Magento user’s actions. They are mostly XML implementations of Codeception actions. Some actions drive browser elements, while others use REST APIs.

Common attributes

All <actions> contain the following attributes that are useful for merging needs.

stepKey

stepKey is a required attribute that stores a unique identifier of the action.

Example test step of the myAction action with the conditionalClickStep1 identifier:

1
<myAction stepKey="conditionalClickStep1"/>

This step can be referenced within the test using conditionalClickStep1.

The value format should met the following principles:

  • Must be unique within <test>.
  • Naming should be as descriptive as possible:
    • Describe the action performed.
    • Briefly describe the purpose.
    • Describe which data is in use.
  • Should be in camelCase with lowercase first letter.
  • Should be the last attribute of an element.

before and after

before and after are optional attributes that insert the action into the test while merging. The action will be executed before or after the one set in these attributes. The value here is the stepKey of reference action.

Example with before:

1
<myAction before="fillField" stepKey="conditionalClickStep1"/>

myAction will be executed before the action, which has stepKey="fillField".

Example with after:

1
<myAction after="fillField" stepKey="seeResult"/>

myAction will be executed after the action, which has stepKey="fillField".

Examples

The following example contains four actions:

  1. Open the Sign In page for a Customer.
  2. Enter a customer’s email.
  3. Enter a customer’s password.
  4. Click the Sign In button.

    1
    2
    3
    4
    
     <amOnPage url="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.url}}" stepKey="amOnSignInPage"/>
     <fillField  userInput="$$customer.email$$" selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.emailField}}" stepKey="fillEmail"/>
     <fillField  userInput="$$customer.password$$" selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.passwordField}}" stepKey="fillPassword"/>
     <click selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.signInAccountButton}}" stepKey="clickSignInAccountButton"/>
    

1. Open the Sign In page for a customer

1
<amOnPage url="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.url}}" stepKey="amOnSignInPage"/>

The Customer Sign In page is declared in the .../Customer/Page/StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.xml file. The given relative URI is declared in StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.url.

Source code (StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.xml ):

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:mftf:Page/etc/PageObject.xsd">
    <page name="StorefrontCustomerSignInPage" url="/customer/account/login/" module="Magento_Customer">
        <section name="StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection" />
    </page>
</config>

<amOnPage> is an action that opens a page for a given URI. It has a key "amOnSignInPage" that will be used as a reference for merging needs in other modules. This action uses the url attribute value for the given relative URI to open a browser page. Here, url contains a pointer to a url attribute of the StorefrontCustomerSignInPage.

2. Enter a customer’s email

1
<fillField userInput="$$customer.email$$" selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.emailField}}" stepKey="fillEmail"/>

<fillField> fills a text field with the given string.

The customer’s email is stored in the email parameter of the customer entity created somewhere earlier in the test using a <createData> tag. userInput points to that data.

selector points to the field where you enter the data. A required selector is stored in the emailField element of the StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection section.

This section is declared in .../Customer/Section/StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.xml file:

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:mftf:Page/etc/SectionObject.xsd">
    <section name="StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection">
        <element name="emailField" type="input" selector="#email"/>
        <element name="passwordField" type="input" selector="#pass"/>
        <element name="signInAccountButton" type="button" selector="#send2" timeout="30"/>
    </section>
</config>

3. Enter a customer’s password

1
<fillField  userInput="$$customer.password$$" selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.passwordField}}" stepKey="fillPassword"/>

This <action> is very similar to the <action> in a previous step. The only difference is that different data is assigned to the attributes, which set a field with a password.

4. Click the Sign In button

1
<click selector="{{StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.signInAccountButton}}" stepKey="clickSignInAccountButton"/>

Here, <click> performs a click on a button that can be found by the selector that is stored in the signInAccountButton of the StorefrontCustomerSignInFormSection.

Actions returning a variable

The following test actions return a variable:

Actions handling data entities

The following test actions handle data entities using metadata:

Actions specifying HTML values

To use HTML in actions you must encode the HTML string. We recommend using CyberChef. Using CyberChef or a similar tool is straightforward: enter in your HTML string, copy the encoded result, and paste that value into your MFTF test.

For example, we want to ensure that this value is presented as a string and not rendered as a H1 tag: <h1 class="login-header">

After passing <h1 class="login-header"> through CyberChef we get &#60;h1 class&#61;&#34;login-header&#34;&#62; which can be used in a test like:

1
<dontSeeInSource html="&#60;h1 class&#61;&#34;login-header&#34;&#62;" stepKey="dontSeeInSource"/>
