These tests consistently fail for me, and were failing before any of
the changes in this series. As noted in [1] there are some known
intermittent test failures. Let's mark these as failing so we can have
an otherwise passing test suite.
We need to add an extra test_path_is_file() here because since

Tests for Mediawiki-to-Git ========================== Introduction ------------ This manual describes how to install the git-remote-mediawiki test environment on a machine with git installed on it. Prerequisite ------------ In order to run this test environment correctly, you will need to install the following packages (Debian/Ubuntu names, may need to be adapted for another distribution): * lighttpd * php * php-cgi * php-cli * php-curl * php-sqlite Principles and Technical Choices -------------------------------- The test environment makes it easy to install and manipulate one or several MediaWiki instances. To allow developers to run the testsuite easily, the environment does not require root privilege (except to install the required packages if needed). It starts a webserver instance on the user's account (using lighttpd greatly helps for that), and does not need a separate database daemon (thanks to the use of sqlite). Run the test environment ------------------------ Install a new wiki ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Once you have all the prerequisite, you need to install a MediaWiki instance on your machine. If you already have one, it is still strongly recommended to install one with the script provided. Here's how to work it: a. change directory to contrib/mw-to-git/t/ b. if needed, edit test.config to choose your installation parameters c. run `./install-wiki.sh install` d. check on your favourite web browser if your wiki is correctly installed. Remove an existing wiki ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edit the file test.config to fit the wiki you want to delete, and then execute the command `./install-wiki.sh delete` from the contrib/mw-to-git/t directory. Run the existing tests ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The provided tests are currently in the `contrib/mw-to-git/t` directory. The files are all the t936[0-9]-*.sh shell scripts. a. Run all tests: To do so, run "make test" from the contrib/mw-to-git/ directory. b. Run a specific test: To run a given test <test_name>, run ./<test_name> from the contrib/mw-to-git/t directory. How to create new tests ----------------------- Available functions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The test environment of git-remote-mediawiki provides some functions useful to test its behaviour. for more details about the functions' parameters, please refer to the `test-gitmw-lib.sh` and `test-gitmw.pl` files. ** `test_check_wiki_precond`: Check if the tests must be skipped or not. Please use this function at the beginning of each new test file. ** `wiki_getpage`: Fetch a given page from the wiki and puts its content in the directory in parameter. ** `wiki_delete_page`: Delete a given page from the wiki. ** `wiki_edit_page`: Create or modify a given page in the wiki. You can specify several parameters like a summary for the page edition, or add the page to a given category. See test-gitmw.pl for more details. ** `wiki_getallpage`: Fetch all pages from the wiki into a given directory. The directory is created if it does not exists. ** `test_diff_directories`: Compare the content of two directories. The content must be the same. Use this function to compare the content of a git directory and a wiki one created by wiki_getallpage. ** `test_contains_N_files`: Check if the given directory contains a given number of file. ** `wiki_page_exists`: Tests if a given page exists on the wiki. ** `wiki_reset`: Reset the wiki, i.e. flush the database. Use this function at the beginning of each new test, except if the test re-uses the same wiki (and history) as the previous test. How to write a new test ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please, follow the standards given by git. See git/t/README. New file should be named as t936[0-9]-*.sh. Be sure to reset your wiki regularly with the function `wiki_reset`.
