Work in progress...

The motivation here is to be able to run tests against the site installed under a dub-directory.

drupal.org does this, which is exposing issues in our tests and bugs in some places (eg. localgovdrupal/localgov_services#335)

It would be great to be able to run the tests locally to replicate this.

The setup on this merge request serves the site at /subdir

Currently the tests do not work within the web container.

I am wondering if there's a difference in how the phpunit tests run with respect to the /subdir

@ekes @stephen-cox @tonypaulbarker any ideas?

Steps to test this:

git clone git@github.com:localgovdrupal/localgov_project.git MY_PROJECT
cd MY_PROJECT
git checkout feature/231-ddev-subdirectory
ddev start
ddev composer install
ddev drush si localgov -y
ddev drush en localgov_demo -y
ddev drush uli
ddev phpunit web/modules/contrib/localgov_services/tests/src/Functional/PagesIntegrationTest.php --filter=testPostLink

Result

Clicking on the HTML output, we can see that the /subdir is being used, but 'Home' link does not link to /subdir

So is there some other configuration that phpunit needs, to know it is running in a sub-directory?

Yep I'll take a look @finnlewis just finishing an alpha version of a LocalGov Drupal recipe installer.

Hi @finnlewis so that error is actually misleading as you're not actually logged in as a cookie isn't set in the header, see https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3556139 for an update to core to make the message more clear.

So it looks like a cookie issue or nginx rewrite issue.
