This is an exploration into making available the
tests.wordpress-develop.dev
domain as an alias for the same Nginx docroot that servessrc.wordpress-develop.dev
, but which loads from the database used for unit testing instead of the normal database that the dev site reads from.The reason for making the WordPress tests database available on its own site is for the sake of allowing for automated acceptance tests (such as via Codeception or Behat) to be run on this separate environment. See #34693. If the WordPress dev environment in VVV has a known URL at which a test install is accessible, then the test runners will know where to direct the automated browsers.
WP-CLI can be routed to the test site by means of supplying the
--url
. For example, to reset the database for the tests environment:Though naturally the DB is reset with each unit test as well.
