The problem is not that the factory class is unavailable, because if that were so you would be getting a fatal “class not found” error. The problem is that you aren’t using your test case properly. This code (and similar) is what is causing the problem: /** * Testing that timeline_express_get_announcement_date() returns what we expect … Read more
When running the PHPUnit tests, WordPress will load the config from wp-tests-config.php instead of wp-config.php. You need to add your database connection details in wp-tests-config.php. And if you use MAMP or AMPPS to host your database, you will have to use 127.0.0.1 as DB_HOST instead of localhost. Alternatively use the PHP version supplied by the … Read more

I used WP_Mock for a long time, until I built Brain Monkey to overcome some problems I found working with it. Using Brain Monkey you can: use Brain\Monkey\Functions; Functions::when(‘get_adjacent_post’)->alias(function() { // mock here… }); or Functions::expect(‘get_adjacent_post’) ->atLeast() ->once() ->with( true, ”, true, ‘topic’ ) ->andReturnUsing(function( $in_same_term, $excluded_terms, $previous ) { // mock here }); This … Read more
I get that answer. I go to this file: wp-includes/deprecated.php and find this line in (deprecated) wp_get_http() function: @set_time_limit ( 60 ); just comment out this line and it works fine. Because wordpress hard coded that 60 seconds limit, this hard coded setting was over-ridding my php.ini settings. so I comment out that line, my … Read more
I’d take a look at how WordPress has constructed their attachment tests. You’ll find that tests/phpunit/tests/post/attachments.php they use this method: function _make_attachment( $upload, $parent_post_id = 0 ) { $type=””; if ( !empty($upload[‘type’]) ) { $type = $upload[‘type’]; } else { $mime = wp_check_filetype( $upload[‘file’] ); if ($mime) $type = $mime[‘type’]; } $attachment = array( ‘post_title’ … Read more

Actually you cannot activate your plugin using WP_UnitTestCase, because in the bootstrap.php you’ve already loaded your plugin as a mu-plugin. What I can suggest you to test your plugin activation is: call the do_action(‘activate_’ . FULL_ABSPATH_TO_YOUR_PLUGIN_PHP), where FULL_ABSPATH_TO_YOUR_PLUGIN_PHP will be something like: var/www/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/hello-world/hello-world.php In this example the hello-world plugin revoke’s a specified user’s capabilities on … Read more
I’m assuming your referring to a server based cron job. I’m not sure if your familiar with it but you could also use WP Cron. It’s an api that built into core. It’s a little easier to work with than a true cron job IMHO. It does have a mild caveat however. Which could also … Read more
What you are trying to do is not unit testing but integration testing, and as integration usually requires some initialization which will be specific to the relevant plugin it is hard to give a general answer which is more then the obvious”include the plugin file” The idea of unit testing is to check that your … Read more
