Inject Symfony Services Into Test Class Properties
==================================================

[](#inject-symfony-services-into-test-class-properties)

A trait to use in your Symfony tests to populate test class properties with their services from the container.

How to Use It
-------------

[](#how-to-use-it)

- `use TestClassServicePropertyInjectorTrait` in any test that extends `Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\KernelTestCase`
- call `$this->injectContainerServicesIntoClassProperties()` in your `setUp()` method

What It Does
------------

[](#what-it-does)

Sets all private and protected properties to their respective services. For a property to be set it must:

- be `private` or `protected`
- be type-hinted to a non-scalar type
- have a type hint that matches a service in the container

Usage Example
-------------

[](#usage-example)

```
use App\Services\FooService;
use App\Services\BarService;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;
use webignition\SymfonyTestServiceInjectorTrait\TestClassServicePropertyInjectorTrait;

class AcmeControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    use TestClassServicePropertyInjectorTrait;

    private FooService $fooService;
    private BarService $barService;

    protected function setUp(): void
    {
        parent::setUp();
        $this->injectContainerServicesIntoClassProperties();
    }

    public function testUsingFooService(): void
    {
        $foo = $this->fooService->createFoo();

        // ... carry out tests that depend on FooService creating $foo
    }

    public function testUsingBarService(): void
    {
        $bar = $this->barService->createBar();

        // ... carry out tests that depend on BarService creating $bar
    }
}
```
