It's EXPECT_EXTERNAL, not FILE_EXTERNAL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-09-20 09:21:53] tim at digicol dot de Description: ------------ In the .phpt files used with run-tests.php, I'd like an option to read the expected output from external files. For consistency with the FILE / FILE_EXTERNAL section naming, I'd call this feature EXPECT_EXTERNAL. The attached patch (against run-tests.php of PHP 5.3.8) implements this functionality. Would you mind adding it as a standard feature? Reason: We often expect relatively large XML output from our tests. Having to paste it into the EXPECT section makes the .phpt file large, and the XML is easier to handle in a separate file (I can run xmllint on it). Also, I'd like to reuse one test's expected output as the input for another test, which works great with external files.
