By default, Dusk does not require you to install JDK or Selenium on your machine. Instead, Dusk uses a standalone Chrome driver. However, you are free to utilize any other Selenium driver you wish. Installation ------------ [](#installation) To get started, you should add the unglud/dusker Composer dependency to your project: ``` composer require --dev unglud/dusker ``` Next, you need to copy all necessary files to your working directory. The command below will do it for you. It creates (or use existing) `tests` directory and put files there. Also, it copies `artisan` console utility to your project root directory. **If you already have this file, it will be overwritten!** The file `.env.dusk` will be in your project root as well, which you will need rename to `.env` or copy it content to your existing one. ``` composer run-script post-install-cmd -d ./vendor/unglud/dusker ``` If you would like these files to update automatically each time you update this package, you can add this to your `composer.json` file: ``` "scripts": { "post-install-cmd": [ "Dusker\\CopyFile::copy" ], "post-update-cmd": [ "Dusker\\CopyFile::copy" ] }, "extra": { "copy-file": { "vendor/unglud/dusker/src/example/": "tests/", "vendor/unglud/dusker/artisan": "artisan" } } ``` As you notice file `.env.dusk` not included there to simplify things. After installing the package, Artisan commands will be available from your root project. Run the `dusk:install` Artisan command: ``` php artisan dusk:install ``` Now try to run test to make sure everything works ``` php artisan dusk ``` How to use ---------- [](#how-to-use) After this part you can use official documentation for Dusk on the [Laravel website](https://laravel.com/docs/master/dusk), `cuz it will work exactly as it was designed by [Taylor Otwell](https://github.com/taylorotwell). Authentication -------------- [](#authentication) Often, you will be testing pages that require authentication. You can use Dusk's loginAs method in order to avoid interacting with the login screen during every test. The loginAs method accepts a user `login` and `password`: ``` $this->browse(function (Browser $browser) { $browser->loginAs('username', 'password') ->visit('/home'); }); ``` After using the loginAs method, the user session will be maintained for all tests within the file. ### Authentication Setup [](#authentication-setup) Since we do not have access to native `Auth` and `Router` from Laravel, because we use it without Laravel we need to setup login functionality. In `.env` you should specify `LOGIN_ENDPOINT` -- path to your public directory where Dusker will copy the file which will be accessible from a browser. By default its `http://example.com/_dusker/login.php`. Second `LOGIN_IMPLEMENTATION` -- path to your class, which utilize logic of your project allowing Authentication. You can use `/tests/LoginManagerExample.php` as an example of how it should look. License ------- [](#license) Dusker is released under the MIT Licence.
