You need to be using one of these functions to display a list of tags associated with the post: the_tags() get_the_tag_list() get_the_term_list() Otherwise the check will fail. If you’re building this theme for use with a project that doesn’t need tags, don’t bother adding support. If you’re intending on uploading it to WordPress.org for review, … Read more
I was working on some tests for code that involved wp_mail() just the other day. I couldn’t find any docs on it either, but I took a look at the source of mock-mailer.php, and everything was rather simple. First, you should understand that WordPress always uses the $phpmailer global to hold an instance of the … Read more
There are many ways to skin a cat and trying to use Selenium with WordPress CLI is new to me. Essentially, WordPress is ‘just’ a dynamic website using a SQL database with some themes and plugin files behind it. Selenium is designed as a frontend browser test tool so keep that in mind for a … Read more
I would suggest you take a look at WP Dummy Content. You can easily extend this plugin or build a script to activate and run it. As suggested by @kaiser I would really record all the performance data I can to get in insights into this scale of operations.
The reason the WordPress test bootstrap is loaded at the end is precisely because it loads WordPress: // Load WordPress require_once ABSPATH . ‘/wp-settings.php’; If you don’t hook your function to load your plugin to ‘muplugins_loaded’ before including the bootstrap, your plugin won’t be loaded with WordPress. In most cases that will mean that your … Read more

You can use ShrimpTest for this. Basically, you need to reverse the test idea. You’re making three separate posts, one of which will be displayed on the front page. That means that two others will not be displayed on the front page. So you’re doing an exclusion. Say your three posts have id’s of 101, … Read more
If all that you want to test is that the translation files exist, then this is probably the simplest approach, since you’ll probably already be using PHPUnit to run unit/integration tests on the plugin code. However, just checking whether the files exist doesn’t tell you much. It doesn’t tell you whether those languages are actually … Read more
There is nothing stopping you from writing your own unit testing for themes/plugins using PHPUnit or some other testing platform. As for WordPress, it has an official Unit Tests here: http://unit-tests.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/ https://github.com/kurtpayne/wordpress-unit-tests (github mirror) There are several build scripts that can automate unit testing found here, including WP-CLI that have built in unit testing, though … Read more
Is object injection really necessary? To be fully testable in isolation, code should avoid to instantiate classes directly, and inject any object that is needed inside objects. However, there are at least two exceptions to this rule: The class is a language class, e.g. ArrayObject The class is a proper “value object”. No need to … Read more
