Hi all
We added a few tests for array, string and variable handling functions
at the weekend. As always - any feedback will be welcome.
One thing we had some difficulty with was keeping the test output small
enough to be easily read. We chose to divide up tests like this:
test_name_b.phpt b=basic function
test_name_v.phpt v=variation
test_name_e.phpt e=error cases
test_name_o.phpt o=object specific
That would work for me, though I don't really see much sense in this.
001.phpt, test_name_001.phpt, func_1.phpt, test_name_v.phpt - they're all cryptic enough
and are not supposed to carry any information.
I believe they're just filenames and the _real_ test name is in the --TEST--
section.
This may not be the right scheme and I'm happy to change it if anyone
has better suggestions, although it is useful to seperate out the error
case tests because quite a lot of the differences between php5 and php6
seem to be in the exact form of the error message. Using this doesn't
completely solve the problem anyway - I think some of the "v" tests will
will end up being test_name_v1, test_name_v2 etc.
I would personally prefer having more small tests with names like "001.phpt" than four
50kb "func_name_001_[b|v|e|0].phpt"..
