Add a submodule to test core and contrib fields

Created on 23 December 2024, 2 days ago

Problem/Motivation

As maintainer, each time I pick up work on this module and have to reinstall my local environment, I must recreate and/or update my local environment with latest Drupal core, and modules. Part of the work is adding label help text for all field types in core, and then adding in several contrib modules (for all the integration and compatibility requests we get). Creating these fields and label help messages for each is tedious and boring work.

Proposed resolution

We've already added DDEV support to speed up the initial installation, and in the same vein it would be nice to have one or more submodules that can be easily installed to create content type (or other entities) with Label Help text, to reduce the tedium of manually recreating a consistent local test environment, and to pave the way for creating automated test suites and (eventually) make it a requirement for new integrations to provide tests.

Remaining tasks

  1. Create an initial submodule to test all core field types and formatters.
  2. Follow-up issues (and separate submodules) for the various contrib module integrations.
