PHPUnit_Framework_Assert :: assertClassHasStaticAttribute（）必须是类名

Question

I'm just starting out learning PHPUnit. I have a seemingly very simple test;

namespace stats\Test;

use stats\Fetch;

class FetchTest extends \PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{

    public function setUp()
    {
        $this->fetch = new Fetch;
    }

    public function testStoresListOfAssets()
    {
        $this->assertClassHasStaticAttribute('paths', 'Fetch'); //line 17
    }

}

My Fetch class is;

namespace stats;

class Fetch
{
    public static $paths = array(
        'jquery' => 'http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js'
    );
}

The error I get when running PHPUnit; PHPUnit_Framework_Exception: Argument #2 (string#Fetch)of PHPUnit_Framework_Assert::assertClassHasStaticAttribute() must be a class name

It's probably something very silly but I can't understand the problem

Answer 1

The PHPUnit_Framework_Assert use the PHP method class_exists to check if the classname you have indicated is correct (check this link to see the full code):

if (!is_string($className) || !class_exists($className, FALSE)) {
  throw PHPUnit_Util_InvalidArgumentHelper::factory(2, 'class name');
}

The problem you have here is the method class_exists doesn't take into account this command:

use stats\Fetch;

So that, you have to indicate the full path to make it work. In this link of stackoverflow you can find more information about that problem. You should change your assert to something like this:

$this->assertClassHasStaticAttribute('paths', '\\stats\\Fetch');
