CMFTestCase Readme

    CMFTestCase is a thin layer on top of the ZopeTestCase package. It has
    been developed to simplify testing of CMF-based applications and products.


    The CMFTestCase package provides:

        - The method installProduct() to install a Zope product into the
          test environment.

        - The method setupCMFSite() to create a CMF portal in the test db.

        - The CMFTestCase base class of which to derive your unit test cases.

        - The FunctionalTestCase base class of which to derive your test
          cases for functional (integration) tests.

        - The utils module known from the ZopeTestCase package.


    Example CMFTestCase::

        from Products.CMFTestCase import CMFTestCase

        CMFTestCase.installProduct('SomeProduct')
        CMFTestCase.setupCMFSite()

        class TestSomething(CMFTestCase.CMFTestCase):

            def afterSetup(self):
                self.folder.invokeFactory('Document', 'doc')

            def testEditDocument(self):
                self.folder.doc.edit(text_format='plain', text='data')
                self.assertEqual(self.folder.doc.EditableBody(), 'data')


    Please see the docs of the ZopeTestCase package, especially those
    of the PortalTestCase class.

    Look at the example tests in this directory to get an idea of how
    to use the CMFTestCase package.

    Copy testSkeleton.py to start your own tests.
