Running the tests

As setup, run composer install inside of the Maps root directory.

You can run the MediaWiki independent tests by changing into the Maps root directory and running

phpunit

This is possible without having a MediaWiki installation or webserver. A clone of the Maps code suffices.

To run the tests with MediaWiki, change into tests/phpunit of your MediaWiki installation and run

php phpunit.php --wiki wiki -c ../../extensions/Maps/phpunit.xml.dist

Where you either update wiki to match your wikis name, or drop the parameter. The above command works without modification if you are using the MediaWiki Vagrant.

Beware that due to severe technical debt, some tests access the network.
