A Zero Table Dependency testing library for PHP 8.1+ that enables SQL unit testing without modifying physical databases.

Overview
--------

[](#overview)

ZTD Query PHP wraps PDO to intercept and transform SQL queries using CTE (Common Table Expression) shadowing. This allows you to:

- Test SQL queries against fixture data without migrations, data seeding, or cleanup
- Use the real MySQL engine for query execution (not mocks)
- Run tests in parallel with complete isolation
- Treat SQL as pure functions: input (fixtures) -&gt; output (results)

### How It Works

[](#how-it-works)

**CTE Shadowing** - Table references in SELECT queries are replaced with CTEs containing your fixture data:

```
-- Original query
SELECT email FROM users WHERE id = 1

-- Transformed query (with fixture data)
WITH users AS (
  SELECT 1 AS id, 'alice@example.com' AS email
  UNION ALL
  SELECT 2 AS id, 'bob@example.com' AS email
)
SELECT email FROM users WHERE id = 1
```

**Result Select Query** - INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statements are converted to SELECT queries that return the affected rows:

```
-- Original
UPDATE users SET name = 'Alice' WHERE id = 1

-- Transformed (returns rows that would be affected)
WITH users AS (...fixture data...)
SELECT id, 'Alice' AS name FROM users WHERE id = 1
```

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.1 or higher
- MySQL 5.6 - 9.1
- PDO extension

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require --dev k-kinzal/ztd-query-php
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Basic Example

[](#basic-example)

```
use ZtdQuery\Adapter\Pdo\ZtdPdo;

// Create ZTD-wrapped PDO connection
$pdo = new ZtdPdo('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test', 'user', 'password');

// Define schema and insert fixture data
$pdo->exec('CREATE TABLE users (id INT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(255), email VARCHAR(255))');
$pdo->exec("INSERT INTO users (id, name, email) VALUES (1, 'Alice', 'alice@example.com')");
$pdo->exec("INSERT INTO users (id, name, email) VALUES (2, 'Bob', 'bob@example.com')");

// Execute queries against fixture data (no physical table access)
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?');
$stmt->execute([1]);
$result = $stmt->fetchAll();
// Returns: [['id' => 1, 'name' => 'Alice', 'email' => 'alice@example.com']]
```

### Wrapping Existing PDO

[](#wrapping-existing-pdo)

```
use ZtdQuery\Adapter\Pdo\ZtdPdo;

$existingPdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test', 'user', 'password');

// Wrap without creating a new connection
$ztdPdo = ZtdPdo::fromPdo($existingPdo);
```

### Testing Write Operations

[](#testing-write-operations)

```
$pdo->exec('CREATE TABLE users (id INT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(255))');
$pdo->exec("INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (1, 'Alice')");

// INSERT returns the inserted row data
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (?, ?)');
$stmt->execute([2, 'Bob']);
$inserted = $stmt->fetchAll();
// Returns: [['id' => 2, 'name' => 'Bob']]

// UPDATE returns the updated row data
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('UPDATE users SET name = ? WHERE id = ?');
$stmt->execute(['Alice Updated', 1]);
$updated = $stmt->fetchAll();
// Returns: [['id' => 1, 'name' => 'Alice Updated']]

// DELETE returns the deleted row data
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('DELETE FROM users WHERE id = ?');
$stmt->execute([1]);
$deleted = $stmt->fetchAll();
// Returns: [['id' => 1, 'name' => 'Alice']]
```

### Enabling/Disabling ZTD Mode

[](#enablingdisabling-ztd-mode)

```
$pdo = new ZtdPdo($dsn, $user, $password);

// Disable ZTD to execute against physical database
$pdo->disableZtd();
$pdo->exec('CREATE TABLE users (id INT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(255))');

// Re-enable ZTD for testing
$pdo->enableZtd();
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

```
use ZtdQuery\Adapter\Pdo\ZtdPdo;
use ZtdQuery\Config\ZtdConfig;
use ZtdQuery\Config\UnsupportedSqlBehavior;
use ZtdQuery\Config\UnknownSchemaBehavior;

$config = new ZtdConfig(
    // How to handle unsupported SQL statements (default behavior)
    unsupportedBehavior: UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Exception, // or Ignore, Notice

    // How to handle references to unknown tables
    unknownSchemaBehavior: UnknownSchemaBehavior::Exception, // or Passthrough

    // Per-pattern behavior rules (first match wins)
    behaviorRules: [
        // Prefix-based rules (case-insensitive)
        'BEGIN' => UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Ignore,
        'COMMIT' => UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Ignore,
        'ROLLBACK' => UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Ignore,

        // Regex-based rules (patterns starting with '/')
        '/^SET\s+SESSION/i' => UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Ignore,
        '/^SET\s+/i' => UnsupportedSqlBehavior::Notice,
    ],
);

$pdo = new ZtdPdo($dsn, $user, $password, config: $config);
```
