Management

Creating a test case

The TestClasses:

  • have the following name pattern classNameTest.php. For example, if the class to test is Myclass.php, the tests for it will be in MyclassTest.php.
  • are inherited from PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase.

The unit test are public methods that:

  • have the following prefix: test.
  • or have the @test annotation in a method's docblock
class MyClassTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{

    public function test()
    {
        $this->assertEquals('foo', 'foo');
    }
}

Annotations to group, filter test

/**
    @group <group specification>
    @author <author specification>
*/

Run

# To run all test in the classFile  tests/myClassTest 
phpunit --bootstrap src/autoload.php tests/myClassTest 

# Or to execute all tests found declared in *Test.php sourcecode files in the tests directory.
phpunit --bootstrap src/autoload.php tests

# Or to execute all tests in a group
phpunit --bootstrap src/autoload.php --group plugins

# Or to exclude a group of test
phpunit --bootstrap src/autoload.php --exclude-group slow,internet

where:

  • phpunit is the runner
  • --bootstrap src/autoload.php is a bootstrap script commonly used to set up load the classes that are to be tested before execution. Example: autoload.php. .
