Hi, sorry, I forgot to include the class definition:
class GeneratedFiltersTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_Testcase {
function testUnconfiguredFilter() {
$matcher = array(
'tag' => 'ul',
'children' => array(
'count' => 3,
'only' => array('tag' => 'li')
)
);
$this->assertTag($matcher, $this->html, $message, $isHtml = FALSE);
}
}
I dont think that the problem is that $this does not exist. Other examples
of assertTag() and other assert* functions work perfectly well.
The only problem I have is when I use the 'children' option with assertTag,
because the count never hast the value it should have.
kind regards,
Michael
