There are some unexpected differences between 310 and master,
better reconcile them now. Note this is not 100% critical but,
as far as nothing exclusively for 4.0 has landed to master yet
only branch/version differences should exist.
This includes:
- Breaking changes (return void + PHP 7.1 min requirement).
- Deprecations and removals.
- Specifically DbUnit and its replacement.
- Printer showing how to rerun tests removed.
That custom printer was using some hacks to be able to intercept
configuration switches, reflection and other tricks to be able to
print the:
To re-run:
vendor/bin/phpunit --verbose "core_setuplib_testcase" lib/tests/setuplib_test.php
line on every failed/exceptional/skipped test. After some internal
discussion it was agreed that the normal phpunit output:
1) core_setuplib_testcase::test_localcachedir
Time is lower that allowed start value
Failed asserting that 1601976686 is equal to 1601976687 or is greater than 1601976687.
/var/www/html/lib/phpunit/classes/advanced_testcase.php:446
/var/www/html/lib/tests/setuplib_test.php:170
/var/www/html/lib/phpunit/classes/advanced_testcase.php:80
has already all the information at hand about how to rerun a test:
- vendor/bin/phpunit lib/tests/setuplib_test.php
- vendor/bin/phpunit --filter core_setuplib_testcase::test_localcachedir
- vendor/bin/phpunit --filter ::test_localcachedir
- vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite componentname_testsuite
- vendor/bin/phpunit --config <<compoenent directory>>
- use --cache-result to get failed tests rerun with ease.
- ...
So better, let's use standard phpunit output and done. Also, note that,
with the upgrade to phpunit 8.5, the printer was not working correctly
any more, causing some switches, like --verbose ... to be ignored. Sure
it could have been fixed but, as commented above, no real need for all
that "parapheranlia" to print the rerun information.
Apply the standard deprecation procedure to the old APIs, to
be removed in Moodle 4.2 (MDL-69882). Existing unit tests
cover the deprecation debugging.
Originally MDL-64600
In charge of taking over the, now removed/archived, phpunit/dbunit
package. It supports loading of CSV/XML files and strings and
PHP arrays, allowing to send the loaded information to database.
Perform some basic controls about the consistency of information,
surely not super-exhaustive but fair enough.
100% covered with unit test.
Planned like an "interim" replacement for phpunit/dbunit uses in
core that, ideally, should be moved to generators stuff at some
point.
Note, expect a few tests in core to fail with this commit, I've
changed some fixtures around. Next commit will fix existing uses.
Originally MDL-64600
It can be enabled if desired from CLI using the --cache-result
option (or modifying the phpunit.xml cacheResult to true).
That will create the .phpunit.result.cache files that,
later, can be used to easily repeat failed (defects) tests or
run the slow ones first and more. See the --order-by option
to know more about all the available criteria. For example:
./vendor/bin/phpunit --order-by=defects --stop-on-defect
(will run all the failed ones first, stopping on problem, useful
for TDD and other scenarios, not so much for complete runs or CI).
Also, added to .gitignore so they won't be committed ever.
The optional parameters of assertEquals() and assertNotEquals()
are deprecated in PHPUnit 8 (to be removed in PHPUnit 9):
- delta => use assertEqualsWithDelta()
- canonicalize => use assertEqualsCanonicalizing()
- ignoreCase => use assertEqualsIgnoringCase
- maxDepth => removed without replacement.

Initial search done with:
ag 'assert(Not)?Equals\(.*,.*,' --php
Then, running tests and fixing remaining cases.
