 == MediaWiki PHPUnit Tests ==


 The unit tests for MediaWiki are implemented using the PHPUnit testing

 framework and require PHPUnit to run.


 === WARNING ===


 Some of the unit tests are DESTRUCTIVE and WILL ALTER YOUR WIKI'S CONTENTS.


 DO NOT RUN THESE TESTS ON A PRODUCTION SYSTEM OR ON ANY SYSTEM WHERE YOU NEED

 TO RETAIN YOUR DATA.


 == Installation ==


 If you used composer to install MediaWiki's dependencies PHPUnit will already be available, unless

 you explicitly specified the --no-dev flag during the install. In this case just run "composer update".


 Otherwise follow the installation instructions in the

 PHPUnit Manual at:


   https://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/installation.html


 == Running tests ==


 The tests are run from your operating system's command line.


 Ensure that you are in the tests/phpunit directory of your MediaWiki

 installation.


 On Unix-like operating systems, the tests runs are controlled with a makefile.

 Run command:


   make help


 for a full list of options for running tests.


 On Windows-family operating systems, run the 'run-tests.bat' batch file.


 === Writing tests ===


 A guide to writing PHP unit tests for MediaWiki can be found at:

The classes in this directory are general utilities for use by any part of MediaWiki They do not favour any particular user interface and are not constrained to serve any particular feature This is similar to includes except that some dependency on the MediaWiki framework(such as the use of MWException, Status or wfDebug()) disqualifies them from use outside of MediaWiki without modification.Utilities should not use global configuration variables
