Codeception

What Codeception is

Codeception is a free, open-source PHP testing framework for web applications, released under the MIT license. It supports acceptance, functional, API, unit, and integration testing. Tests use a high-level domain language to represent user actions, and teams can write user stories in Gherkin or use Codeception's Cest format. Browser tests can run with Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Selenium WebDriver, or HTTP requests through PhpBrowser. REST and SOAP testing includes commands for JSON and XML responses. Data-driven database testing supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and Memcache. Listed PHP framework integrations include Symfony, Laravel, Zend Framework, Yii, and Phalcon. Codeception can produce local and remote code coverage reports in XML and HTML. Its WebDriver documentation covers Selenium, Sauce Labs, LambdaTest, and TestingBot, while official and community add-ons include tools such as Appium, TestRail, Allure, and WireMock. It runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, or self-hosted environments. Installation requires PHP 5.6 or newer with CURL enabled. Support options include Gitter, GitHub issues, Stack Overflow, and IRC; consulting, enterprise support, and training are also listed.
