Using the Friendica tests
Install Tools
You need to install the following software:
- PHP
- MySQL or Mariadb (the latter is preferred)
For example in Ubuntu you can run:
sudo apt install mariadb-server php
Install PHP extensions
The following extensions must be installed:
- MySQL
- Curl
- GD
- XML
- DOM
- SimpleXML
- Intl
- Multi-precision
- Multi-byte string
For example in Ubuntu:
sudo apt install php-mysql php-curl php-gd php-xml php-intl php-gmp php-mbstring
Create Local Database
The default database name is test
, username friendica
, password
friendica
. These can be overridden using environment variables
DATABASE_NAME
, DATABASE_USER
, DATABASE_HOST
, and
DATABASE_PASSWORD
. Whatever settings you choose, you must give the
corresponding user the necessary privileges to create and destroy the
chosen database.
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'friendica'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'friendica' WITH GRANT OPTION;
GRANT CREATE, DROP ON test.* TO 'friendica'@'localhost';
Use Docker Database
Instead of using a local database, you can also use a database running in a docker container.
TODO this section needs to be filled in with working examples.
Running Tests
You can then run the tests using the autotest.sh
script. You should
specify the type of database as an argument, either mysql
or
mariadb
:
bin/dev/autotest.sh mariadb
You can also run just one particular file of tests:
bin/dev/autotest.sh mariadb src/Util/ImagesTest.php
Example output of tests passing:
OK (2 tests, 2 assertions)
Failed tests look like this. Examine the output before this to see which tests failed.
FAILURES!
Tests: 2, Assertions: 2, Failures: 1.
