Method Detail
_aliasConnections()source protected
_aliasConnections( )Add aliases for all non test prefixed connections.
This allows models to use the test connections without a pile of configuration work.

Returns
arrayAn array of connection names.
_initDb()source protected
_initDb( )Initializes this class with a DataSource object to use as default for all fixtures
_loadFixtures()source protected
_loadFixtures( Cake\TestSuite\TestCase $test )Looks for fixture files and instantiates the classes accordingly
Parameters
- Cake\TestSuite\TestCase- $test
- The test suite to load fixtures for.
Throws
UnexpectedValueExceptionwhen a referenced fixture does not exist.
_runOperation()source protected
_runOperation( array $fixtures , callable $operation )Run a function on each connection and collection of fixtures.
Parameters
- 
     array $fixtures
- A list of fixtures to operate on.
- 
     callable $operation
- The operation to run on each connection + fixture set.
_setupTable()source protected
_setupTable( Cake\TestSuite\Fixture\TestFixture $fixture , Cake\Database\Connection $db , array $sources , boolean $drop true )Runs the drop and create commands on the fixtures if necessary.
Parameters
- Cake\TestSuite\Fixture\TestFixture- $fixture

- The Connection object instance to use
- 
     array $sources
- The existing tables in the datasource.
- 
     boolean $dropoptional true
- whether drop the fixture if it is already created or not
fixturize()source public
fixturize( Cake\TestSuite\TestCase $test )Inspects the test to look for unloaded fixtures and loads them
Parameters
- Cake\TestSuite\TestCase- $test
- The test case to inspect.

isFixtureSetup( string $connection , Cake\Datasource\FixtureInterface $fixture )Check whether or not a fixture has been inserted in a given connection name.
Parameters
- 
     string $connection
- The connection name.
- Cake\Datasource\FixtureInterface- $fixture
- The fixture to check.
Returns
booleanload()source public
load( Cake\TestSuite\TestCase $test )Creates the fixtures tables and inserts data on them.
Parameters
- Cake\TestSuite\TestCase- $test
- The test to inspect for fixture loading.
Throws
Cake\Core\Exception\ExceptionWhen fixture records cannot be inserted.
loadSingle()source public
loadSingle( string $name , Cake\Datasource\ConnectionInterface|null $db null , boolean $dropTables true )Creates a single fixture table and loads data into it.
Parameters
- 
     string $name

- Connection instance or leave null to get a Connection from the fixture
- 
     boolean $dropTablesoptional true
- Whether or not tables should be dropped and re-created.
Throws

setDebug()source public
setDebug( boolean $debug )Modify the debug mode.
Parameters
