RUNNING TESTS

The full test suite currently does not run! This is due to some components not yet being migrated to namespaces, as well as to some issues we've encountered in refactoring.

To run tests:

• Make sure you have a recent version of PHPUnit installed; 3.5.0 minimally.

• Enter the tests/ subdirectory.

• Execute PHPUnit, providing a path to a component directory for which you wish to run tests, or a specific test class file.

  % phpunit ZendTest/Application
  % phpunit ZendTest/Application/Resource/CacheManagerTest.php

• You may also provide the --group switch; in such cases, provide the top-level component name:

  % phpunit --group Zend_Application

  This will likely lead to errors, so it's usually best to specify a specific component in which to run test:

  % phpunit --group ZF-XYZ Zend/Application

You can turn on conditional tests with the TestConfiguration.php file. To do so:

• Enter the tests/ subdirectory.
• Copy TestConfiguration.php.dist file to TestConfiguration.php
• Edit TestConfiguration.php to enable any specific functionality you want to test, as well as to provide test values to utilize.
