X! edbf743aeb Make MediaWikiParserTest work now in PHPUnit. There are still a few bugs, such as stopping tests if one fails,
lack of fuzz testing and other parser test options, and the DB creation is still a little flaky.
A MediaWikiPHPUnitCommand class had to be created to allow for custom CLI parameters.

They're not strictly maintenance scripts, and some people want to do a selective checkout that doesn't include the tests. There's still debate on whether we should include these in the release downloads, but we had a pretty firm consensus to move this. 2010-12-14 16:26:35 +00:00

== MediaWiki PHPUnit Tests ==

The unit tests for MediaWiki are implemented using the PHPUnit testing
framework and require PHPUnit to run.


=== WARNING ===

Some of the unit tests are DESTRUCTIVE and WILL ALTER YOUR WIKI'S CONTENTS.

DO NOT RUN THESE TESTS ON A PRODUCTION SYSTEM OR ON ANY SYSTEM WHERE YOU NEED
TO RETAIN YOUR DATA.


== Installation ==

If PHPUnit is not installed, follow the installation instructions in the
PHPUnit Manual at:

  http://www.phpunit.de/manual/current/en/installation.html

- or -

On Unix-like operating systems, run:

  make install


== Running tests ==

The tests are run from your operating system's command line.

Ensure that you are in the tests/phpunit directory of your MediaWiki
installation.


On Unix-like operating systems, the tests runs are controlled with a makefile.
Run command:

  make help

for a full list of options for running tests.


On Windows-family operating systems, run the 'run-tests.bat' batch file.
