Re: [Simpletest-support] Deleting a cookie

[Taras D. <Tar...@pr...>]

Hi Marcus,

Since I originally posted this question, I've looked further at the source code. I tried to emulate 'deleting' a cookie by setting it to be expired - I assume this is what you mean by 'the same tricks as the browser'.

However, this does not work as expected because the 'selectAsPairs' function does not consider whether the cookie is expired

    function selectAsPairs($url) {
        $pairs = array();
        foreach ($this->_cookies as $cookie) {
            if ($this->_isMatch($cookie, $url->getHost(), $url->getPath(), $cookie->getName())) {
					$pairs[] = $cookie->getName() . '=' . $cookie->getValue();
            }
        }
        return $pairs;
    }

This function is only used in building up the header.. so I'd think that this fucntion should consider the expiry times of the cookies

Your thoughts?

Taras

This is a thorny one, as the browsers don't necessarily do this 
either. SimpleTest acts like a fussy (Netscape) browser. You have to 
explicitly set a timeout.

You cannot delete a cookie with SimpleTest as such, but you must use 
the same tricks a s the browser. If you look at the SimpleTest 
source in simpletest/test/cookies_test.php, right at the end you 
will see some tests that make sure this emulation is possible.

If you look at WebTester::setCookie() in the actual source code, 
you'll see that you can set all the information you need.

Why not actually do the sign-up in the test? That is, start with the 
home page, sign-up, then do your task. It will be slower of course, 
but only for the one or two tests that depend on this behaviour? 
Otherwise your tests may be difficult to understand.

Or am I missing something important?

The DomTestCase is already marked as "un-released" in the documentation 
on the web site.

See http://simpletest.org/en/experimental_dom_tester.html

And the bundled documentation doesn't mention this dom tester stuff 
either as far as I can see. I'm now confused as where this confusion 
comes from...

We seem to have forgotten our own plan on this. The progression was...

1) Announced on mailing list as supported, we will try to ensure 
backward compatibility even if it's hosted from the author's own site.
2) Available in the main SVN.
3) Bundled with the tarball.
4) In the main API docs.

Although a new feature can enter this ladder at any stage, we 
shouldn't have stuff in the docs that isn't in the download. Extra 
downloads should have their own docs.

Would people like the DomTester to be part of the tarball?

Either way, we should we create a separate extensions section in the 
docs until it's all been beta and usability tested. Mark, is taht

If they might be at all useful for anyone but the SimpleTest developers, 
they should be available without jumping through hoops. A separate 
download if necessary, but you need a download that's at least 
documented somewhere (how to do it) and that can safely be expected to 
work with the core download.

Also, I believe it is an open question as to whether the extensions

Any thoughts?

Re: [Simpletest-support] Where is the dom tester?

[Mark R. <ma...@co...>]

Thanks for pointing this out. The issue is just that package level
docblock tags aren't all consistent on some of the extensions. I
noticed this the other day too, and I'm in the process of fixing the
issue in SVN right now.

Mark

Yes, that's reasonable. I already have an older version that must have 
come from CVS/Subversion. But I was wondering about the apparent 
inconsistency. Is there some rhyme or reason to the fact that some 
extensions are more or less included in the API documentation and some 
are not? If an extension is in the 1.0.1 API documentation, shouldn't it 
be in the 1.0.1 download file as well?

Re: [Simpletest-support] Where is the dom tester?

[Perrick P. <pe...@no...>]

It's an extension. You can find it here :

[Simpletest-support] Where is the dom tester?

[Dagfinn R. <da...@re...>]

In the 1.0.1 docs, there is a section called DomTestCase, but no 
DomTestCase class, just CssSelector and CssSelectorExpectation. In 
simpletest_1.0.1.tar.gz 
<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/simpletest/simpletest_1.0.1.tar.gz?modtime=1207619754&big_mirror=0>, 
there is no DomTestCase, no CssSelector and no CssSelectorExpectation.

Can someone explain this?

[Simpletest-support] Deleting a cookie

[Taras D. <Tar...@pr...>]

Hi everyone,

How do you delete a particular cookie? I am aware that you can set ignoreCookies, but this is unsuitable as:
 * It can't (AFAIK) be reversed
 * You can't specify that you want to receive but not send cookies
 * It will ignore ALL cookies (I wish to only ignore a particular cookie)

The context of my question is that I'm implementing single sign on for a forum. When a user logs out of their account, it destroys a 'universal' guid cookie, but any other cookies will remain. This is the behaviour I'm trying to simulate.

Thanks

Taras

Re: [Simpletest-support] Forcing a mock to throw an exception

[Noel D. <ma...@mc...>]

Note that, as well as expecting an object:

$mock->throwOn('methodName', $exception_object);
$this->expectException($exception_object);

..you can also expect the exception type: 

$mock->throwOn('methodName', $exception_object);
$this->expectException('ExceptionClass');

You can do the following in SimpleTest- no decorator required:

$this->mock->throwOn('methodName', $exception_object);
$this->expectException($this->exception);

If $this->mock->methodName() is called $exception_object will be
thrown.

Mocks currently have kinda sucky callback support. The way I've
been working around it is extending the generated mock class and adding
the custom behavior. Your mileage may vary.

[Simpletest-support] Forcing a mock to throw an exception

[todd r. <to...@gm...>]

I'm looking for a way to make my mock object throw an exception. I want to
test that my class under test catches and handles any thrown exceptions
correctly.  I want to add a call to my mock object similar to:

$this->mymock->setReturnValue('doomedmethod', new Exception('thanks'));

Or even better:
$this->mymock->expectAndThrow('doomedmethod', new Exception('thanks'));

Any advice on whether this exists in simpletest? If not, is there any other
way to test my classes exception handling logic?

Thanks,

[Simpletest-support] assertNoCookie

[Taras D. <Tar...@pr...>]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use assertNoCookie: it seems simple enough to use, but I've been getting unexpected results. In particular, doing the following (inside a WebTestCase of course):

$this->assertNoCookie('arandomstringl;1jk5ljk15ljkldjasfljkasglajkgag')

fails (?!)

however, calling $this->getCookie('theSameStringAsAbove') returns 'null'.

Is this a bug, or am I missing something really obvious?

Thanks

[Simpletest-support] Mocks and $this references?

[Travis S. <dev...@do...>]

Hey guys;

Another random bug, and one I haven't dove into at all, but I'm seeing  
some test failures where $this is being referred to in mocked  
objects.  I'm assuming the code is just using mocks as statics where  
Mock::generate() didn't know it was a mock, but...  Anyone else seen  
something similar?

If I get it narrowed down and it's a real bug, I'll get a test case  
together to show it.
