PHPUnit袖珍指南 第八章 未完成测试

第八章 未完成测试

当开始书写新的测试用例类时，你也许想要从空的测试方法开始，譬如：

public function testSomething( ) {

}

我们必须跟踪书写的每个测试。空测试方法的问题是，它们被PHPUnit 框架解释作执行成功。这样产生的测试报告是没有用的。您不能区分测试实际上是成功了或是未完成。在未完成的测试方法中调用$this->fail()也不行，因为这被解释作为失败。这和未完成测试被错误解释成功一样糟糕。

如果我们认为一个成功的测试可以亮绿灯，测试失败亮红灯，那我们就需要黄灯来标记测试未完成。PHPUnit2 _ Framework_IncompleteTest是这个标志的接口，标记测试方法抛出的测试未完成或当前未完成的异常。PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTestError 是这个接口的标准实现。

例9显示了测试用例类SampleTest包含了一个测试方法testSomething()，通过抛出PHPUnit2 _ Framework_IncompleteTestError异常，我们将此测试标为未完成测试。

例9．将测试标记为未完成

<?php

require_once 'PHPUnit2/Framework/TestCase.php';

require_once 'PHPUnit2/Framework/IncompleteTestError.php';

class SampleTest extends PHPUnit2_Framework_TestCase {

public function testSomething( ) {

// Optional: Test anything here, if you want.

$this->assertTrue(TRUE, 'This should already work.');

// Stop here and mark this test as incomplete.

// You could use any Exception which implements the

// PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTest interface.

throw new PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTestError(

'This test has not been implemented yet.'

);

}

}

?>

An incomplete test is denoted by an I in the output of the PHPUnit command-line test runner, as shown in the following example:

一个未完成的测试在PHPUnit 命令行测试器中由I 表示，如下例所示：

phpunit SampleTest

PHPUnit 2.3.0 by Sebastian Bergmann.

I

Time: 0.006657

There was 1 incomplete test case:

1) testSomething(SampleTest)

This test has not been implemented yet.

OK, but incomplete test cases!!!

Tests run: 1, incomplete test cases: 1.

Chapter 8. Incomplete Tests

When you are working on a new test-case class, you might want to begin by writing empty test methods, such as:

public function testSomething( ) {

}

to keep track of the tests that you have to write. The problem with empty test methods is that they are interpreted as a success by the PHPUnit framework. This misinterpretation leads to the test reports being uselessyou cannot see whether a test is actually successful or just not yet implemented. Calling $this->fail( ) in the unimplemented test method does not help either because then the test will be interpreted as a failure. This would be just as wrong as interpreting an unimplemented test as a success.

If we think of a successful test as a green light, and a test failure as a red light, we need an additional yellow light to mark a test as being incomplete or not yet implemented. PHPUnit2_ Framework_IncompleteTest is a marker interface for marking an exception that is raised by a test method as the result of the test being incomplete or not currently implemented. PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTestError is the standard implementation of this interface.

Example 9 shows a test-case class, SampleTest, that contains one test method, testSomething( ). By raising the PHPUnit2_ Framework_IncompleteTestError exception in the test method, we mark the test as being incomplete.

Example 9. Marking a test as incomplete

<?php

require_once 'PHPUnit2/Framework/TestCase.php';

require_once 'PHPUnit2/Framework/IncompleteTestError.php';

class SampleTest extends PHPUnit2_Framework_TestCase {

public function testSomething( ) {

// Optional: Test anything here, if you want.

$this->assertTrue(TRUE, 'This should already work.');

// Stop here and mark this test as incomplete.

// You could use any Exception which implements the

// PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTest interface.

throw new PHPUnit2_Framework_IncompleteTestError(

'This test has not been implemented yet.'

);

}

}

?>

An incomplete test is denoted by an I in the output of the PHPUnit command-line test runner, as shown in the following example:

phpunit SampleTest
