Hi all.
Can someone please clarify how database access works within testing? The data does not really get persisted to the database, at least not in my setup.
For example the Discount tests like vendor/spryker/discount/tests/SprykerTest/Zed/Discount/Business/DiscountFacadeCalculateTest.php .
I am asking this, because I try to persist discounts to the database like that, but actually test the CalculationFacade . There is a point where the Discount Model vendor/spryker/discount/src/Spryker/Zed/Discount/Business/Calculator/Discount.php reads active discounts from the database, but the previously inserted discounts can not be found. Also I can not find the previously inserted discounts in the database, I must be looking at the wrong place. What am I missing?

    Actually the vendor/spryker/discount/tests/SprykerTest/Zed/Discount/Business/DiscountFacadeCalculateTest.php seems to do exactly what I intend, but it does not work?

    Nevermid, it IS working if you do it right 😉
    I used a random discount-store relation with

    $storeTransfer = $this->tester->haveStore();
    

    Use it with the proper storename will make it findable by the Discount Model:

    $storeTransfer = $this->tester->haveStore([
         StoreTransfer::NAME => APPLICATION_STORE,
    ]);

    And just to mention the TransactionHelper, it is kindly generating a transaction for every test method and rolls it back afterwards. The data will never get persisted, so you have to debug it from within the transaction. No issues with caching or whatever, just use it with your regular database in your modules codeception.yml (not the PyzTest Environment):

            modules:
                enabled:
                    - \SprykerTest\Shared\Propel\Helper\TransactionHelper
