When writing integration tests, there are two quite similar annotations:

  1. @magentoAdminConfigFixture (GitHub)
  2. @magentoConfigFixture (GitHub)

The latter one is used much more often:

$ grep -R '@magentoAdminConfigFixture ' vendor/magento/ | wc -l
110
$ grep -R '@magentoConfigFixture ' vendor/magento/ | wc -l
1828

However, I cannot find any documentation about the difference (see related DevDocs issue). Some config values are even used in both ways in the core:

$ grep -R '@magentoAdminConfigFixture admin/security/use_form_key' vendor/magento/ | wc -l
8
$ grep -R '@magentoConfigFixture admin/security/use_form_key' vendor/magento/ | wc -l
5

What is the difference between the two? When should I use which one?

@magentoConfigFixture

You can use this annotation when you need to set some config value before the test starts. The format for this annotation is:

/**
 * @magentoConfigFixture store_code section/group/field value
 */

It will set the value for the configuration field with the path section/group/field for the store that has the code store_code.

@magentoAdminConfigFixture

Similar to magentoConfigFixture except that it sets values for default scope so you cannot pick stores.

  • To be honest, "similar" does not convince me :D I would like to know the exact difference.
