UPDATE Just realized another way to do this that works much better than the –verbose command line option: class TestSomething extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { function testSomething() { $myDebugVar = array(1, 2, 3); fwrite(STDERR, print_r($myDebugVar, TRUE)); } } This lets you dump anything to your console at any time without all the unwanted output that comes along … Read more
I’m really really baffled that Simpletest still is considered an alternative to phpunit. Maybe i’m just misinformed but as far as I’ve seen: PHPUnit is the standard; most frameworks use it (like Zend Framework, Cake, Agavi, even Symfony is dropping their own Framework in Symfony 2 for phpunit). PHPUnit is integrated in every PHP IDE … Read more
It’s obviously an old question but my suggestion would be to move the code that die()‘s into a separate method that you can then mock. As an example, instead of having this: class SomeClass { public function do() { exit(1); // or die(‘Message’); } } do this: class SomeClass { public function do() { $this->terminate(123); … Read more
Well, your session manager is basically broken by design. To be able to test something, it must be possible to isolate it from side effects. Unfortunately, PHP is designed in such a way, that it encourages liberal use of global state (echo, header, exit, session_start etc. etc.). The best thing you can do, is to … Read more
I recently discovered Visual PHPUnit which looks like a very very nice interface for everyone that doesn’t want to run PHPUnit from the command line: It seems to be the next iteration of @Matt’s PHPUnit Test Report
I had the same problem, try: pear clear-cache
PHPUnit supports test dependencies via the @depends annotation. Here is an example from the documentation where tests will be run in an order that satisfies dependencies, with each dependent test passing an argument to the next: class StackTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { public function testEmpty() { $stack = array(); $this->assertEmpty($stack); return $stack; } /** * @depends … Read more
You need to know the exact version number you wish to downgrade to. At the time of writing, the last release you’re after is 3.3.17, which can be found out by checking the appropriate PEAR channel. To downgrade to that particular version execute two commands: pear uninstall phpunit/PHPUnit pear install phpunit/PHPUnit-3.3.17
Here’s the code as if PHPUnit 3.7.13 $ phpunit –configuration config.xml –testsuite Library $ phpunit –configuration config.xml –testsuite XXX_Form If you want to run a group of the test suites then you can do this <testsuites> <testsuite name=”Library”> <directory>library</directory> </testsuite> <testsuite name=”XXX_Form”> <file>library/XXX/FormTest.php</file> <directory>library/XXX/Form</directory> </testsuite> <testsuite name=”Both”> <directory>library</directory> <file>library/XXX/FormTest.php</file> <directory>library/XXX/Form</directory> </testsuite> </testsuites> Then $ phpunit … Read more
The issue is that PHPUnit will print a header to the screen and at that point you can’t add more headers. The work around is to run the test in an isolated process. Here is an example <?php class FooTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { /** * @runInSeparateProcess */ public function testBar() { header(‘Location : http://foo.com’); } … Read more
