Apply the standard deprecation procedure to the old APIs, to
be removed in Moodle 4.2 (MDL-69882). Existing unit tests
cover the deprecation debugging.
Originally MDL-64600
In charge of taking over the, now removed/archived, phpunit/dbunit
package. It supports loading of CSV/XML files and strings and
PHP arrays, allowing to send the loaded information to database.
Perform some basic controls about the consistency of information,
surely not super-exhaustive but fair enough.
100% covered with unit test.
Planned like an "interim" replacement for phpunit/dbunit uses in
core that, ideally, should be moved to generators stuff at some
point.
Note, expect a few tests in core to fail with this commit, I've
changed some fixtures around. Next commit will fix existing uses.
Originally MDL-64600
The optional parameters of assertEquals() and assertNotEquals()
are deprecated in PHPUnit 8 (to be removed in PHPUnit 9):
- delta => use assertEqualsWithDelta()
- canonicalize => use assertEqualsCanonicalizing()
- ignoreCase => use assertEqualsIgnoringCase
- maxDepth => removed without replacement.
More info @ https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3341
Initial search done with:
ag 'assert(Not)?Equals\(.*,.*,' --php
Then, running tests and fixing remaining cases.
Both assertContains() and assertNotContains() are deprecated in PHPUnit 8
for operations on strings. Also the optional case parameter is. All uses
must be changed to one of:
- assertStringContainsString()
- assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase()
- assertStringNotContainsString()
- assertStringNotContainsStringIgnoringCase()
More info: https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3422
Regexp to find all uses:
ag 'assert(Not)?Contains\('
While this is not strictly required, because removal will
happen in PHPUnit 9.0, we are already getting rid of all
uses in core.
From release notes:https://phpunit.de/announcements/phpunit-8.html
assertInternalType() is deprecated and will be removed in
PHPUnit 9. Refactor your test to use assertIsArray(), assertIsBool(),
assertIsFloat(), assertIsInt(), assertIsNumeric(), assertIsObject(),
assertIsResource(), assertIsString(), assertIsScalar(),
assertIsCallable(), or assertIsIterable() instead.
All the setup/teardown/pre/post/conditions template methods
now are required to return void. This was warned with phpunit 7
and now is enforced.
At the same time, fix a few wrong function names,
provider data and param types, return statements...
It is still used widely in the plugins that would stop working suddenly
without being warned via a debugging message. We must keep it forever as
an alias for the wwwroot.
Before this patch, we only checked that the given provider has been
configured in the user or system preferences. However, if the provider's
component is disabled, it does not even appear in these preferences.
Additionally, there was no check that the message / notification
provider is among providers allowed to be consumed by the recipient.
The patch checks that the message origin is among providers returned by
the message_get_providers_for_user() so disabled plugins can't act as
sources of messages and users can't receive messages from providers they
do not have capability for. This mitigates the risk of abusing a plugin
as a source of spam, for example.
Unit test is fixed and extended. When the $CFG->messaging is disabled,
no messages between users should be sent (I can't understand why the
unit test was written in an opposite way). Added assertions for the
raised debugging message.
1. getMock()
2. setExpectedException()
3. checkForUnintentionallyCoveredCode renamed to beStrictAboutCoversAnnotation
4. beStrictAboutTestSize renamed to enforceTimeLimit
5. UnitTestCase class is now fully removed.
This patch replaces all homegrown timezone
stuff with standard PHP date/time code.
The main change is the introduction of core_date
class that returns normalised user and server
timezones. From now on nobody should be using
$CFG->timezone or $user->timezone directly!
Other new features and fixes:
* admins are prompted for timezone during install
* editing of other users is finally fixed
* timezones are displayed in user profile
* new $this->setTimezone() in phpunit
* time locale is now automatically reset in phpunit
* timezone is now automatically reset in phpunit
* phpunit has Australia/Perth as default timezone
This reverses the references used for global $USER and $SESSION,
the reason is that PHP does not allow references to references.
$USER is a reference to $GLOBALS['USER'] which means we cannot
put any references to it. Solution is to store the current user and session
objects in $GLOBALS['USER'] and $GLOBALS['SESSIOn'] are reference
them in $_SESSION.
This patch makes the session code behave the same way in CLI,
phpunit and normal web requests - this allows use to finally
unit test most aspects of the session code in Moodle.
When different ID's are set for each sequence a number
of unit test failures appear. They have been corrected
to allow unit tests to pass with the new generator in place.
List of changes:
* New OOP API using PHP namespace \core\session\.
* All handlers now update the sessions table consistently.
* Experimental DB session support in Oracle.
* Full support for session file handler (filesystem locking required).
* New option for alternative session directory.
* Official memcached session handler support.
* Workaround for memcached version with non-functional gc.
* Improved security - forced session id regeneration.
* Improved compatibility with recent PHP releases.
* Fixed borked CSS during install in debug mode.
* Switched to file based sessions in new installs.
* DB session setting disappears if DB does not support sessions.
* DB session setting disappears if session handler specified in config.php.
* Fast purging of sessions used in request only.
* No legacy distinction - file, database and memcached support the same functionality.
* Session handler name included in performance info.
* Fixed user_loggedin and user_loggedout event triggering.
* Other minor bugfixing and improvements.
* Fixed database session segfault if MUC disposed before $DB.
Limitations:
* Session access time is now updated right after session start.
* Support for $CFG->sessionlockloggedinonly was removed.
* First request does not update userid in sessions table.
* The timeouts may break badly if server hosting forces PHP.ini session settings.
* The session GC is a lot slower, we do not rely on external session timeouts.
* There cannot be any hooks triggered at the session write time.
* File and memcached handlers do not support session lock acquire timeouts.
* Some low level PHP session functions can not be used directly in Moodle code.
