PHPUnit说我不会将参数传递给父类方法。 我是

Question

I have a test class that extends an abstract parent class. The parent class extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase, it defines some methods that all tests will use.

I'm having an issue calling the parents methods. Phpunit is saying that i'm not providing any arguments to the method but i am.

Here is the child's method

public function testEmptyGarbageNullDataDoesntValidate() {
    $rule = new Rule\Between( 1, 10 );
    $this->testNullDataDoesntValidate( $rule );
    // $this->testEmptyDataDoesntValidate( $rule );
    // $this->testGarbageDataDoesntValidate( $rule );
}

Here's the parent method

public function testNullDataDoesntValidate( \Validator\Rule $rule ) {
    $this->validator->addRule( 'null', $rule );
    $this->assertFalse( $this->validator->validate( array( 'null' => null ) ) );
}

I'm getting the error

Argument 1 passed to BaseRuleTest::testNullDataDoesntValidate() must be an instance of Validator\Rule, none given

It's saying None is given, but its being given. I can go into the child's function and var_dump( $rule ) and see the data, it's definitely there.

Here's the var_dump from within the parent method

object(Validator\Rule\Between)#210 (2) {
  ["min_value":protected]=>
  int(1)
  ["max_value":protected]=>
  int(10)
}

I'm assuming it has something to do with the way phpunit works. I'm new to phpunit.

Any ideas?

Try renaming testNullDataDoesntValidate to something that doesn't start with test.

Functions that are actual tests begin with the word "test". See here: http://www.phpunit.de/manual/3.6/en/writing-tests-for-phpunit.html

Because that makes them actual tests, phpunit calls it without arguments.
