[Simpletest-support] How is SimpleTestErrorHandler supposed to work?

[Mikkel N. R. <mik...@th...>]

Hi

I have a situation here. I use version 1.0.1 of SimpleTest, and some 
logical errors seems to be supressed...

If I run the following code:
<?php
require_once('simpletest/unit_tester.php');
require_once('simpletest/reporter.php');

    class DamagedLogic
    {
       
        public function damagedFunction()
        {
*            // Should generate some kind of error.
            return $notDefinedVariable;
*        }
    }

    class DamageTestCase extends UnitTestCase  {
        function testDamagedFunction() {
            $damagedLogic = new DamagedLogic();
            $damagedLogic->damagedFunction();
        }
    }
   
    $test = &new DamageTestCase();
    $test->run(new HtmlReporter());
?>

which sould generate some kind of error since the $notDefinedVariable is 
not defined, the test is reported as passing. When I step through the 
code, I see that the SimpleTestErrorHandler gets invoked, but still, no 
errors gets reported. The code documentation for the 
SimpleTestErrorHandler is:
/**
 *    Error handler that simply stashes any errors into the global
 *    error queue. Simulates the existing behaviour with respect to
 *    logging errors, but this feature may be removed in future.
 *    @param $severity        PHP error code.
 *    @param $message         Text of error.
 *    @param $filename        File error occoured in.
 *    @param $line            Line number of error.
 *    @param $super_globals   Hash of PHP super global arrays.
 *    @static
 *    @access public
 */
But is does not help me muct.

What am I missing here?
