Quicksilver QA Prep
===================

[](#quicksilver-qa-prep)

This Quicksilver script automates the preparation of a Pantheon environment for running automated QA tests. It replaces two manual steps that were previously run after every database clone:

1. **Enable the `du_functional_testing` module** – equivalent to: ```
    terminus drush "$SITE.$ENV" -- en du_functional_testing -y
    ```
2. **Grant the `legacy_test_and_training_accounts` role to every `qa_*` test user** – the `du_functional_testing` module creates one test user per non-built-in Drupal role (e.g. `qa_administrator`, `qa_editor`, …). The `legacy_test_and_training_accounts` role allows those accounts to bypass SSO/SAML during automated testing.

The script is triggered automatically by the Pantheon `env:clone` workflow (database clone), so no manual intervention is required after a sync.

> **Environment restriction:** The script only executes on the **dev** and **test** Pantheon environments. If it runs on any other environment (e.g. **live**), it exits immediately without making changes.

> **Note:** The `du_functional_testing` install hook is known to sometimes return a non-zero exit code. The script logs any such error and continues regardless, because the `qa_*` test users are still created even when the hook exits with an error.

This project was developed from a template for new Quicksilver projects to utilize so that Quicksilver scripts can be installed through Composer.

Original template:

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

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.0 or higher
- Composer
- Drupal 9+ site running on Pantheon with the `du_functional_testing` module available in the codebase
- The `legacy_test_and_training_accounts` role must exist on the site

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

[](#installation)

This project is designed to be included from a site's `composer.json` file, and placed in its appropriate installation directory by [Composer Installers](https://github.com/composer/installers).

In order for this to work, you should have the following in your `composer.json`file:

```
{
  "require": {
    "composer/installers": "^1"
  },
  "extra": {
    "installer-paths": {
      "web/private/scripts/quicksilver/{$name}/": ["type:quicksilver-script"]
    }
  }
}
```

Then, install this package via Composer:

```
composer require university-of-denver/quicksilver-qa-prep:^1
```

### Add to `pantheon.yml`

[](#add-to-pantheonyml)

Add the following to your `pantheon.yml` file to run the Quicksilver script whenever a database clone occurs (e.g. syncing Live → Test or Test → Dev):

```
api_version: 1

workflows:
  clone_database:
    after:
      - type: webphp
        description: Prepare environment for QA tests
        script: private/scripts/quicksilver/quicksilver-qa-prep/qa-prep.php
```

### What the script does

[](#what-the-script-does)

1. Runs `drush en du_functional_testing -y` to enable the functional testing module, which creates `qa_*` test user accounts (one per non-built-in role). Any errors from the install hook are logged but do **not** stop execution.
2. Runs `drush role:list --format=json` to retrieve all role machine names (excluding the built-in `anonymous` and `authenticated` roles).
3. For each role, derives the corresponding `qa_` username (e.g. `administrator` → `qa_administrator`) and runs `drush user:role:add legacy_test_and_training_accounts `.

If a `qa_*` user does not exist on the cloned environment the script emits a warning and continues rather than failing the workflow.

No Pantheon secrets are required.
