Zendcasts Forum

Hi Jon,

this is clear now.

Thanks, Udo

P.S.: I like your approach how to structure code.

hmm...

well my understanding is that a captcha relies on either a one-way hash or a session variable for verification. I would try and decouple the validation of the hash from the actual page request and test the validation engine without the page. I would then write tests that assume that the validation engine is functioning correctly and simulate a user posting back the form with the captcha.

my 2 cents

Hi Jon,

Do you know why phpunit loses the Autoloader when generating the reports?  I get an error about not being about to find Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap.  If I turn off the reports it continues with no errors.  If I add the require_once('Zend/Application/Bootstrap/Bootstrap.php'); the reports work with no errors.

Hi, I got phpunit working (finally) and it's all happy, bar one thing. You show that code coverage html stuff in the log/report. And I don't know why. I get this output in terminal:

conquistador:tests Max$ phpunit --configuration phpunit.xml
PHPUnit 3.3.17 by Sebastian Bergmann.

.

Time: 0 seconds

OK (1 test, 3 assertions)
conquistador:tests Max$

and I checked for the line in phpunit.xml:

<log type="coverage-html" target="./log/report" charset="UTF-8"
            yui="true" highlight="true" lowUpperBound="50" highLowerBound="80"/>

it's there, so what am I missing? Any help greatly appreciated

I'm getting:

Fatal error: Class 'Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase' not found in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/jakeaikens.com/tests/application/ControllerTestCase.php on line 12

when I run phpunit from the command line. I looked in application/library/Zend/Test/PHPUnit and ControllerTestCase DOES exist. I'm completely baffled. Is there a way to unit test the unit testing?

Here is the code from phpunit.xml:

<phpunit bootstrap="./application/bootstrap.php" colors="true">
    <testsuite name="Jake's Blog">
        <directory>./</directory>
    </testsuite>
    <filter>
        <whitelist>
            <directory suffix=".php">../application</directory>
            <exclude>
                <directory suffix=".phtml">../application</directory>
            </exclude>
        </whitelist>
    </filter>
    <logging>
        <log type="coverage-html" target="./log/report" charset="UTF-8"
        yui="true" highlight="true" lowUpperBoubd="50" highLowerBound="80" />
        <log type="testdox" target="./log/testdox.html" />
    </logging>

</phpunit>

Here is the code from ControllerTestCase.php:

<?php
/*
* To change this template, choose Tools | Templates
* and open the template in the editor.
*/

/**
* Description of ControllerTestCase
*
* @author Jake
*/
class App_ControllerTestCase extends Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase {
    protected $application;
    public function setUp()
    {
        $this->bootstrap = array($this, 'appBootstrap');
        parent::setUp();
    }
    public function appBootstrap()
    {
        $this->application = new Zend_Application(APPLICATION_ENV, APPLICATION_PATH . '/config/aplication.ini');
    }
}

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

had the same problem ... and came to the conclusion that the run as php unit or debug as php unit option in zend studio will not work with phpunit.xml and resolved that with including the files (the bootstrap & the ControllerTestCase)

I had the same problem. I assume this is because the application is instantiated within this class, so autoloading is not yet available.

Workaround: I required the class manually in ControllerTestCase.php, now it works.

require_once "Zend/Test/PHPUnit/ControllerTestCase.php";

Hi Jon,

I'm new at unit test so please be patient.
I realized that the testdox.html is auto generated but in the tutorial code there is also a lot of files in log/report (not auto generated) so I'm wondering how that stuff works and how to set it up and above all where it comes from ?

btw thanks for tutorializing
