Tests are developed and used to verify that an expected behaviour does occur within specified boundaries where a set of parameters define the requirements in which results are accepted or rejected.
- Unit test mostly used for testing technical specifications of a unit, module, or class.
- Integration test combines multiple components and verifies its interplay between those modules
- System test (and its individual modules) is treated as "black-box" in order to observe behaviour as a whole rather than its units
# PHPUnit
[PHPUnit][phpunit] provides the necessary environment to execute unit tests within PHP. Information about how to work with PHPunit can be found at [smw.org][smw] and [mediawiki.org][mw-phpunit-testing].
Tests can be executed by either running the `mw-phpunit-runner.php` script or [`phpunit`][mw-phpunit-testing] together with the PHPUnit configuration file found in the root directory.
```sh
php mw-phpunit-runner.php [options]
```
### Test cases
The use of `MediaWikiTestCase` is discouraged as its binds tests and the test environment to MediaWiki. Generally it is best to use `PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase` and in case where a MW database connection is required `MwDBaseUnitTestCase` should be used instead.
* `MwRegressionTestCase` used for regression testing together with XML data import
* `QueryPrinterTestCase` base class for all query and result printers
* `SpecialPageTestCase` derives from `SemanticMediaWikiTestCase`
### Obsolete
* `ParserTestCase` derives from SemanticMediaWikiTestCase
* `SemanticMediaWikiTestCase` derives from <code>PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase</code> and adds some convenient functions
## Integration testing
Additional services can be enabled on Travis-CI to expand the test environment, available at present:
- `FUSEKI`: Jena Fuskei 1.0.2 is integrated
- `VIRTUOSO`: Virtuoso-opensource-6.1 is integrated
- `FOURSTORE`: 4Store is installable but not executable due to [issue #110](https://github.com/garlik/4store/issues/110)
The test environment is described in [SPARQLStore integration testing](../includes/src/SPARQLStore/README.md).
# QUnit
Running qunit tests in connection with MediaWiki requires to execute [Special:JavaScriptTest][mw-qunit-testing]. QUnit tests are currently not executed on Travis (see [#136][issue-136]).
