This is a test framework for MDB built using PHPUnit. Currently all
the tests from the metabase driver_test.php have been ported.
These tests directly access the MDB API, unlike driver_test.php
which uses the metabase wrapper - hopefully this framework should give
better feedback as to where or what caused when error are encountered. The
driver_test.php is still very useful for testing the metabase
compatability.
Usage:
In order for the tests to work they need to access a database called
"driver_test". This database is created in the manager test. If you have
problems running the manager test or the driver you are using does not yet
provide the necessary methods you may create the database manually. In the
future we will probably provide SQL files for every supported database.
To setup the tests
* requires PHPUnit to be installed
* requires MDB to be installed in a php include path or the tests need to be
moved into the MDB root path.
* copy the file test_setup.php.dist to test_setup.php
* edit test_setup.php. The array $testarray specifies which testcases
to carry out. Currently only MDB_usage_testcase is release quality.
$dbarray is an array of databases to test.
* point your browser at test.php for the results, and then fix the
bugs!
* by default test.php will use all tests in the testcases - if
you want to pick specific tests, use testchoose.php to pick just the
tests you want to run
Writing tests:
The tests are written using PHPUnit from pear so first make sure you
have the latest stable release, and have read the docs,
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/packages.phpunit.php
There are currently 4 test cases in development,
MDB_usage_testcase.php - port of the driver_test.php from metabase
MDB_api_testcase.php - test(s) for each method in the driver api
MDB_manager_testcase.php - test(s) for each method in the manager api
MDB_bugs_testcase.php - each time a MDB bug is found a test should
be added here.
