#Drupal Variable

Codeception module to allow testing of drupal variables.

e.g.

// Assert that the target site has variable "clean_url" set to 1
$I->seeVariable("clean_url", 1);

// Set a variable.
$I->haveVariable("clean_url", 0);

// Delete a variable.
$I->dontHaveVariable("clean_url");

// Retrieve a variable value.
$value = $I->getVariable("clean_url");

There are three ways of accessing the variable values.

• Bootstrapped - bootstrap the locally installed drupal instance and use variable_get/set().
• DirectConnection - use PDO to query the database directly.
• Drush - use drush to get/set variables.

#Install
