I created a new helper called AdvHtmlHelper.
class AdvHtmlHelper extends AppHelper {
var $helpers = array('Form');
function textbox($fieldName, $options = array()) {
$output = $this->Form->input($fieldName, array('before' => '<div class="outerdiv"><div class="leftfields"><div class="txt1">', 'between' => '</div><div class="colon"> : </div></div><div class="rightfields"><div class="input">'));
$output .= '</div></div></div><div class="space"></div>';
return $output;
}
}
And I created a test for it
App::import('Helper', 'AdvHtml');
App::import('Helper', 'Form');
App::import('Helper', 'Html');
App::import('Core', 'View');
class AdvHtmlTest extends CakeTestCase {
private $advHtml = null;
//Here we instantiate our helper, and all other helpers we need.
public function startTest() {
$this->advHtml = new AdvHtmlHelper();
$this->advHtml->Form = new FormHelper();
$this->advHtml->Form->Html = new HtmlHelper();
$this->view = new View($this->Controller);
}
//testing textbox() function.
public function testTextbox() {
$result = '<div class="input text"><div class="outerdiv"><div class="leftfields"><div class="txt1"><label for="new">New</label></div><div cla开发者_Python百科ss="colon"> : </div></div><div class="rightfields"><div class="input"><input name="data[new]" type="text" id="new" /></div></div></div></div><div class="space"></div>';
$this->assertEqual($result, $this->advHtml->textbox('new'));
}
}
I get the following error when I try to run the test. Line 10 of the helper code is the call to the form helper.
Fatal error: Call to a member function input() on a non-object in /opt/lampp/htdocs/mali/app/views/helpers/adv_html.php
How do I test a helper which calls another helper?
on line 10
EDIT: Answered. Updated with my final test case for reference.
You have to set the form helper as a property of the advHtml helper when setting up the helpers:
public function startTest() {
$this->advHtml = new AdvHtmlHelper();
$this->advHtml->Form = new FormHelper();
}
