Hello, I am writing to you because I am doing an academic project related to testing php applications. I have read all your guide to write test cases (which is clear and understandable), there is one thing that bothers me though - how exactly do I run tests? Should I just run the run-tests.php file (for example in a browser)? And is there some official run-tests.php file on the internet? Because I have found some, but I do not know if the source is reliable (I have not found this file on qa.php.net, although that's the site I would search on the first place). Thank you for attention, Piotr.
The tests are command line based. The run-tests.php file is commonly invoked by running 'make' after PHP is built from source code. (This is mentioned on http://qa.php.net/, but I agree it could be expanded on). The run-tests.php file is included in the top level directory of PHP's source bundle, e.g http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/master;hb=refs/heads/master I'm sure there are various instructions for running tests. Instructions I have handy are in chapter 19 of this PDF: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/php/underground-php-oracle-manual-098250.html Chris -- christopher.jo...@oracle.com http://twitter.com/ghrd Newly updated, free PHP & Oracle book: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/php/underground-php-oracle-manual-098250.html -- PHP Quality Assurance Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
