Bug #: 39473
Summary: Running parser test files with phpunit.php should
behave like running them with parserTests.php
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.20-git
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Unit tests
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: danwe...@web.de

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
It seems like when running parser test files with phpunit.php they follow
different rules as when running them with parserTests.php.
If I observed this correctly, phpunit.php collects all articles to be created
with "!!article", creates them, and then it runs tests. With parserTests.php on
the other hand everything is executed in the order it is defined. In some tests
it can be important whether a article already exists or not.
There might be other behavioral differences here as well. The whole thing seems
incredibly odd to me since there is also some redundant code and the initial
globals set up in ParserTest::setupGlobals() are slightly different from
globals set up in NewParserTest::setupGlobals().
If there is no good reason against this, both classes, ParserTest and
NewParserTest should be reduced to one, or at least one base class/interface.
The goal should be that when running phpunit.php parser tests behave exactly
like running parserTests.php
