如何使用PHPUnit测试集合类

Question

I have a class similar to this (some logic removed for brevity):

class FooCollection {
    protected $_foos;

    public function __construct() {
        $this->_foos = new SplObjectStorage();
    }

    public function addFoo(FooInterface $foo) {
        $this->_foos->attach($foo);
    }

    public function removeFoo(FooInterface $foo) {
        $this->_foos->detach($foo);
    }
}

I'd like to test the addFoo() and removeFoo() methods using PHPUnit, and I was wondering what the best strategy would be to do this? As far as I can tell, I have only a few options:

1. Add a method hasFoo(FooInterface $foo) and check this after the add.
2. Add a method getFoos() that directly returns the SplObjectStorage instance and check if $foo is in it after the add.
3. Try to removeFoo($foo) after addFoo($foo) and check for an exception.
4. Make $_foos a public property and check it directly after the add (bad, bad, bad...).

Options #1 and #2 are changing the public interface solely for testing purposes, and I'm not sure how I feel about that. They seem like pretty generic, useful methods to have anyway on the surface, but in my particular case, I never have a need to check for the existance of a particular Foo instance in the collection, nor retrieve all of the instances, so it really would just be bloat. Also, it seems like if I'm testing multiple parts of the interface in one test, I'm not really testing a "unit," but that's more or less just a philosophical hangup.

Option #3 seems awkward to me.

Option #4 is a really bad idea, and I shouldn't have even listed it, as I wouldn't do it even if it were suggested here.

You didn't post a public accessor for getting the collection, but I am sure you have one, otherwise adding/removing foos to an array which is publically inaccessible makes no sense. So you could try something like (phpunit 3.6, php 5.4):

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

public function tearDown()
{
    unset($this->NumbersCollection);
}

public function testNumbersCollection()
{
    $this->NumbersCollection->addNumber(1);
    $this->NumbersCollection->addNumber(2);

    $this->assertSame(3, $this->NumbersCollection->sum());
    $this->assertSame(2, $this->NumbersCollection->product());

    $this->NumbersCollection->removeNumber(1);

    $this->NumbersCollection->addNumber(7);

    $this->assertSame(9, $this->NumbersCollection->sum());
    $this->assertSame(14, $this->NumbersCollection->product());
}
