Problems with unit tests

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am using test-harness.php (PHP TAP Test Harness 1_0_0_BETA) and
test-more.php to write some unit tests for several libraries of
functions. These tests need to run from a MS-Windows CLI so they can be
run on our desktops for now and can be added to the automated build
process later.

I have written my first tests using test-more.php to generate TAP
compliant results, and they work as expected (see below - yes, both
tests should fail). But when I run them with test-harness.php, the
reported results are wrong (also below). The harness reports all tests
passed, even if they didn't.

After doing some digging, I found Bug #44908, which seems to be related.
It appears the interpreter on MS-Windows is not creating the pipe file
for STDOUT, so the harness never sees the results from the actual tests.
I also tried using the Perl Test::Harness to run the scripts and get the
same error message there. Both harnesses appear to ignore the error
count returned as the process exit value as well. But I am not sure if
that is true or they just never saw it.

Has any workaround been identified for this problem?

Is there another mailing list that might be a more appropriate forum for
this issue?

Thank you,

Bob McConnell
