=====Basics=====
Administrator can run Dataform acceptance tests with the Moodle behat command line tool (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Acceptance_testing#Running_tests).
*Adds a Dataform activity to a course.
 
*Adds all standard fields with default settings.
Alternately administrator can use the Dataform Acceptance testing interface from
*Adds all standard views with default settings.
 
*Submits a new entry with content in the text field in each view.
''Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Activity modules > Dataform > Acceptance testing''
*Sets quick filter
 
**Sets quick per page and navigates between pages with the paging bar
for testing particular Dataform features by name or tags.
**Filters entries with the quick search
 
**Resets the quick filter
The current implementation of the Dataform Acceptance testing interface assumes that a selenium server is running. To run a test, select a feature or tags and click 'Run tests'. The page will hang until the tests are completed. If you run long tests it may be better to run them from a command line.
*Adds standard filters with sort and search criteria and applies them to the view
 
*Adds advanced (user) filter and applies it to the view

* Resets (truncates) all dataform tables to remove any records and reset sequences.
Prepares a fresh environment with the following components and a dataform activity 'Test dataform' in Course 1.
* This step is essential for any standalone scenario that adds entries with content since such a scenario has to refer to input elements by the name field_{fieldid}_{entryid} (or field_{fieldid}_-1 for a new entry) and the ids have to persist between runs.
Course:
====I add a test dataform====
  | fullname | shortname | category
* Adds a test dataform as teacher 1 in course 1 and displays the dataform.
| Course 1 | C1 | 0
* The step begins in a new test site.
====I delete this dataform====
Users:
* Deletes the dataform.
  | username | firstname | lastname | email
* This step begins inside the designated dataform.
| teacher1 | Teacher | 1 | teacher1@asd.com
* Useful at the end of standalone scenarios for cleanup.
| assistant1 | Assistant | 1 | assistant1@asd.com
====I go to manage dataform "TABNAME_STRING"====
| student1 | Student | 1 | student1@asd.com
* Goes to the specified manage tab of the current dataform.
  | student2 | Student | 2 | student2@asd.com
* The step begins from the dataform's course page.
| student3 | Student | 3 | student3@asd.com
 
Example:
<nowiki>
  And I go to manage dataform “filters”
</nowiki>
====I add a dataform field "FIELDTYPE_STRING" with "SETTINGSLIST_STRING"====
* Adds a field of the specified type to the current dataform with the provided table data (usually Name).
* The step begins from the dataform's course page.
 
'''Example''':
  <nowiki>
And I add a dataform field "checkbox" with "Field 01 Field description 01 Managers only Yes "
</nowiki>
The settings list is a tab separated values string for the following field form items:
  <nowiki>
Name
Description
Visible
Editable
Label
param1
param2
param3
param4
param5
param6
param7
param8
param9
param10
</nowiki>
You can prepare a list of settings in a spreadsheet (each row a new set). When you select in the spreadsheet the cells of a settings set and paste it into the fixture file it will be pasted as a tab separated values string.
 
The content of the param items may differ between field types.
 
You can include in the settings list only some of the form settings but the order should be preserved. For example, if you want to add a field with only name and description (the rest will be the default settings) you can add the following step:
  <nowiki>
And I add a dataform field "checkbox" with "Field 01 Field description 01”
</nowiki>
====I add a dataform view "VIEWTYPE_STRING" with "SETTINGSLIST_STRING"====
* Adds a view of the specified type to the current dataform with the provided table data (usually Name).  
* The step begins in the dataform's Manage | Views tab.
 
====I set view "VIEWNAME_STRING" as default====
* Sets a view as the default view of a dataform instance.
* The step begins in the dataform's Manage | Views tab
* with the designated view (by name) already added.
 
====I add a dataform filter with "SETTINGSLIST_STRING"====
* Adds a filter with the specified data to the current dataform.
* The step begins in the dataform's Manage | Filters tab.


====I add a dataform entry====
Enrollments:
* Adds an entry without data to the current dataform.
| user | course | role
* You should be in the dataform page, and the dataform should have a default view with submission options.
| teacher1 | C1 | editingteacher
| assistant1 | C1 | teacher
| student1 | C1 | student
| student2 | C1 | student
Groups:
| name    | description | course  | idnumber |
| Group 1 | Anything    | C1 | G1  |
| Group 2 | Anything    | C1 | G2  |


===Adding tests===
Group members:
See https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Acceptance_testing#Writing_features for general test writing guidelines.
| user    | group  |
| student1 | G1 |       
| student2 | G2 |       


It also resets (truncates) all Dataform tables to remove any records and reset sequences.


[[es:Pruebas Dataform]]
This step is essential for any standalone scenario that adds or updates entries with content since such a scenario has to refer to input elements by fixed field ids and entry ids.
====Given I go to dataform page "DATAFORM_URL_STRING"====
Opens Dataform url.
====Given I add a dataform with "DATAFORM_URL_STRING"====
Adds a dataform as teacher 1 in course 1 and displays the dataform.
====Then the dataform settings should match "FORM_DATA_STRING"====
Validates dataform activity settings.
====Given I add a test dataform====
Adds a test dataform as teacher 1 in course 1 and displays the dataform.
====Given I delete this dataform====
Deletes the dataform.
====Given I go to manage dataform "TAB_NAME_STRING"====
Go to the specified manage tab of the current dataform.
====Given I add a dataform field "FIELD_TYPE_STRING" with "FORM_DATA_STRING"====
Adds a field of the specified type to the current dataform with the provided table data (usually Name).
====Given I add a dataform view "VIEW_TYPE_STRING" with "FORM_DATA_STRING"====
Adds a view of the specified type to the current dataform with the provided table data (usually Name).
====Given I set view "VIEW_NAME_STRING" as default view====
Sets a view as the default view of a dataform instance.
====Given I add a dataform filter with "FORM_DATA_STRING"====
Adds a filter with the specified data to the current dataform.
====Given I prepend "TEXT_STRING" to field "FIELD_STRING"====
