Phpunit

• Install phpunit in the project to have coding assistance as stated here

cd yourProject
wget -O phpunit.phar https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-7.phar

Package Manager

Install

• Php - Composer
• pear (7.5.9)

Clone Dokuwiki

You need to clone it in order to get the dokuwiki test class.

git clone git://github.com/splitbrain/dokuwiki.git .

Configuration

Go to: http://VitrualHost/install.php to configure it

• Enable ACL - Yes - to test logged in and logged out
• ACL Policy: Public

Go to the configuration manager:

• debug your code with compress disabled. You can verify your code still works with compress enabled with the JSLint online service
• Cache: Disable the whole render cache by setting the cache page time to -1. See Dokuwiki - Cache Dev configuration
• Verify that the index.php doesn't have a redirection.
• Don't set the basurl to be able to test with ngrok. (ie google metadata checking tool does not allow localhost)

Install Stale

Install Stale to stale the cache easily.

Because we are the authors, we clone it.

cd $DOKUWIKI\lib\plugins

git clone https://github.com/ComboStrap/stale

Interpreter

Set the php interpreter to 7.1

Unit test

Phpunit Settings: To run individual test file on plugin:

• For Combostrap developer: you need to set the alternative bootstrap file to \plugins\combo\_test\bootstrap.php
• For General Dokuwiki development, you just need to set the phpunit.xml

Then:

• set the _test directory as Test Source. Context menu option Mark directory As Test Source Root

• A class/method: add the option –stderr to the test runner options to avoid PHPUnit_Framework_Error_Warning : Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at …php\pear\PHPUnit\Util\Printer.php:172)

• Change the running template

Library

Add Jquery as library:

• Settings (CTRL + ALT + S) > Languages & Frameworks > JavaScript > Libraries (Enabled or Download Jquery)

Disable the cache in devtool
