This is - handy if you are testing multiple environments and need various options - depending on the environment. - see run-tests-config.php for details. -* CGI Emulation: - Will emulate a CGI environment when testing with the cgi sapi executable. -* HTTP testing: - can be configured to run test scripts through an HTTP server running - on localhost. localhost is required since either the web server must - alias a directory to the php source directory, or the test scripts - must be copied to a directory under the web server - (see config options TEST_WEB_BASE_URL, TEST_BASE_PATH, and TEST_WEB_EXT) -* New sections supported for test files (see below) - -When running tests over http, tests that require ini settings different that what -the web server runs under will be skipped. Since the test harness defines a number -of ini settings by default, the web server may require special configuration to -make testing work. - -[Example Usage] ----------------- -Some (but not all!) examples of usage: - -1. run tests from the php source directory - php run-tests2.php -p /path/to/php-cli - -2. run tests using cgi emulation - php run-tests2.php -p /path/to/php-cgi - -3. run tests over http, copying test files into document root - php run-tests2.php -w -u http://localhost/test -m /path/to/htdocs/test - -4. run tests over http, php sources have been aliased in web server - php run-tests2.php -w -u http://localhost/test - -5. run tests using configuration file - php run-tests2.php -c /path/to/run-tests-config.php - -6. run tests using configuration file, but overriding some settings: - (config file must be first) - php run-tests2.php -c /path/to/run-tests-config.php -w -t 3 -d /path/to/testdir - -NOTE: configuration as described in README.TESTING still works. - -[New Test Sections] ----------------- -In addition to the traditional test sections -(see http://qa.php.net/write-test.php), several new sections are available -under run-tests2. - ---POST-- -This is not a new section, but not multipart posts are supported for testing -file uploads, or other types of POST data. - ---CGI-- -This section takes no value. It merely provides a simple marker for tests -that MUST be run as CGI, even if there is no --POST-- or --GET-- sections -in the test file. - ---DESCRIPTION-- -Not used for anything, just a section for documenting the test - ---ENV-- -This section get's eval()'d to help build an environment for the -execution of the test. This can be used to change environment -vars that are used for CGI emulation, or simply to set env vars -for cli testing. A full example looks like: - - --ENV-- - return <<<END - PATH_TRANSLATED=$filename - PATH_INFO=$scriptname - SCRIPT_NAME=$scriptname - END; - -Some variables are made easily available for use in this section, they -include: - $filename full native path to file, will become PATH_TRANSLATED - $filepath =dirname($filename) - $scriptname this is what will become SCRIPT_NAME unless you override it - $docroot the equivelant of DOCUMENT_ROOT under Apache - $cwd the directory that the test is being initiated from - $this->conf all run-tests2 configuration vars - $this->env all environment variables that will get passed to the test - - ---REQUEST-- -This section is also eval'd, and is similar in nature to --ENV--. However, -this section is used to build the url used in an HTTP request. Valid values -to set in this section would include: - SCRIPT_NAME The inital part of the request url - PATH_INFO The pathinfo part of a request url - FRAGMENT The fragment section of a url (after #) - QUERY_STRING The query part of a url (after ?) - - --REQUEST-- - return <<<END - PATH_INFO=/path/info - END; - ---HEADERS-- -This section is also eval'd. It is used to provide additional headers sent -in an HTTP request, such as content type for multipart posts, cookies, etc. - - --HEADERS-- - return <<<END - Content-Type=multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------240723202011929 - Content-Length=100 - END; - ---EXPECTHEADERS-- -This section can be used to define what headers are required to be -received back from a request, and is checked in addition to the -regular expect sections. For example: - - --EXPECTHEADERS-- - Status: 404 - - - |
