Some tests I touched recently use this, and I didn't change it, just moved things around. I agree that knowing about a specific serialization format in tests is bad. On the other hand, it's nice to be able to construct an entity in a single statement, instead of building it iteratively. Also, some test cases take the array data as input, and only construct the entity when running the test. This is convenient in cases when the data provider does not know the concrete type of entity under test. I guess that's why this was introduced. I'm moving tests away from that, though. -- daniel -- Daniel Kinzler Senior Software Developer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikidata-tech mailing list Wikidata-tech@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-tech
