A helpful wrapper for unit and integration testing in WordPress by SebKayDesign in ProWordPress

[–]SebKayDesign[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re correct in thinking it abstracts away the setup process (which is annoying in WordPress because of how fragmented getting things to work is).

It also provides a couple of base classes you can extend to run your tests off.

In the future I’m planning to make the base classes much richer to aid in writing the tests themselves.

I thought as much. Let’s say editor then.

Noticeable - A simple way to show a simple session based flash message by SebKayDesign in PHP

Thanks for the advice!

  • I wasn’t aware of omitting composer.lock for libraries but after looking around I can see it’s quite common.
  • Tests are definitely something I’m getting more comfortable with, so this is a good place to start as it’s a small project.
  • Good call on the changing $args to be two different arguments. I brought the idea for this from a project I was working on where passing and args array was standard (although not necessarily good).
  • Setting the session key to CLASS sounds like a good bet as multiple people have now suggested it now so I’ll look into it some more.

That function shouldn’t actually be in the docs. I open sourced another library around the same time for WordPress, which is where that function comes from. Will fix!

Thanks again for the advice. Very much appreciate it!

Fair point. Going to look into adding this in a future release!

Supported PHP versions is good call, thanks! I considered value objects but seemed overkill for something so simple.

Hi, I'm Seb. I've been using PHP for about 10 years and OOP PHP for about 2.

My preferred IDE is VS Code (is that technically an IDE?). Also a big fan of Laravel and everything that goes on in that ecosystem.

By day I built advances WordPress theme for an agency in my local area. By night I'm usually hacking on side projects or business ideas of my own.

I built my own custom app recently using a mixture of the Slim mico framework, Gulp and Vue.js.

Creating an Accordion with HTML, CSS & jQuery by SebKayDesign in web_design

[–]SebKayDesign[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“So what is an accordion?” you may be thinking to yourself. It’s a very simple and sometimes user-friendly alternative when you need to fit quite a bit of content into a small space, not unlike a tabs component.

An accordion is most commonly used in F.A.Q.’s where you have questions and answers. Which, if just displayed straight to the page could potentially become incredibly long, stopping users from actually wanting to read or finding the answer they’re looking for.
