- <h1>TestFest 2009</h1>
- <p>
- The TestFest is an event that aims at improving the
- <a href="http://gcov.php.net">code coverage</a> of the
- <a href="/running-tests.php">test suite</a> for the PHP
language
- itself. As part of this event, local User Groups (UG) are invited to
- join the TestFest. These UGs can meet physically or come together
- virtually. The point however is that people network to learn together.
- Aside from being an opportunity for all of you to make friends with
- like minded people in your (virtual) community, it also will hopefully
- reduce the work load for the PHP.net mentors. All it takes is someone
- to organize a UG to spearhead the event and to get others involved in
- <a href="/write-test.php">writing phpt tests</a>. The
submissions will
- then be reviewed by members of php.net before getting included in the
- official test suite.
- </p>
-
- <h2>Participating Users Group</h2>
-
- Please check the PHP.net wiki page for
- <a href="http://wiki.php.net/qa/testfest">details</a>.
-
- <h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
-
- <h3>Why should I care?</h3>
- Aside from having to opportunity to help in improving the language
- itself, we will also raffle off 10
- <a href="http://flickr.com/groups/elephpants/pool/">elePHPants</a>
to
- submitters. Every submission (test) that is considered helpful
- receives one entry into the raffle. Furthermore, people that show they
- are capable of writing tests entirely on their own may be given
- official PHP.net accounts with direct commit access to cvs.php.net and
- an @php.net email address. As a result participants should also read
- over the general <a href="http://www.php.net/cvs-php.php">guidelines
- for getting CVS access</a>.
-
- <h3>When will the TestFest take place?</h3>
- UGs are free to pick any time in April - June 2009. Each local TestFest
- can last a day, a week or any other timeframe.
-
- <h3>Why is the timeframe flexible?</h3>
- We want to ensure that we have mentors ready and available to answer
- questions. The timeframe for each UG needs to suite both the UG and the
- availability of mentors.
-
- <h3>How will local organizers be assisted?</h3>
- We will make a list of areas available of areas of PHP that need
- more testing. Along with that list we will provide contact
- information for mentors. The mentors will also review the submissions
- later on. Ideally questions regarding the testing framework itself
- will be answered by local organizers. Please check the
- <a href="http://wiki.php.net/qa/testfest">wiki</a>
to get details on
- the available mentors and focus areas.
-
- <h3>I want to organize an event, but there is nobody here that
- knows how to write tests for PHP. What can I do?</h3>
- First look at the documentation on how to <a href="write-test.php">
- write phpt tests</a>. It's actually not that hard. If you still need
- help feel free to contact the <a href="mailto:php-qa@lists.php.net">
- QA mailinglist</a>.
-
- <h3>Where are tests submitted to?</h3>
- When user groups register for an event we will create a directory in
- a Subversion repository, members of the usr group should check in their
- tests under that directory. The repository is:
- <p>http://testfest.php.net/repos/testfest</p>
- <p>Each usergroup lead will be given admin rights in the repository
- and will create regular user IDs for other members of the group.
- <p>There is a directory called IndependentContributor for people
- who are not working with a user group. If you would like access
- to that please mail your request and a sample test case to
- php-qa@lists.php.net
-
-
- <h3>I volunteered to be a mentor, how do I review tests?</h3>
- Look at the tests for the user group that you are mentoring
- in the subversion repository.
- Check out the tests and ensure that they run. Key review
- points are:
- <ul>
- <li> Is the test readable? Can you understand quickly what it's
- supposed to do? </li>
- <li> Are there appropriate SKIPIF sections? </li>
- <li> Is there a CREDITS section (should contain #PHPTestFest2009)?
- <li> If the test 'reasonably' short? Imagine it failed and you had
- to work out why, do you think you could do it without creating
- a smaller test?
- </li>
- </ul>
-
- <p>If the test does not run or does not meet enough of these criteria
- then add your review comments and check back in to the SVN repository.
-
- <p>If the test is good, commit to PHP CVS and delete from Subversion.
-
- <h3>What version of PHP should be used?</h3>
- We prefer that the tests are made for 5.3/HEAD. You can grab a build
- of 5.3 at the <a href="http://snaps.php.net/">snaps page</a>. Source
- code and Windows builds are available. Possibly there will be a
- release candidate of PHP 5.3 available as well. If requiring PHP
- 5.3/HEAD is an issue for your UG, please let us know so that we can
- see how your UG can still participate.
-
- <h3>How are submissions reviewed? How do I get feedback?</h3>
- Mentors will have access to all the submissions and will review
- submissions at their own pace in their given area of expertise. We
- hope this will be done in a timely manner, but please understand
- that we cannot give any guarantees, especially if the event turns out
- to be as successful as we hope. Submitters should look for review comments
- in their submitted tests, if the test dissappears from Subversion, it has been
- been processed and committed to PHP CVS.
-
- <h3>How do I join? How do I get more information?</h3>
- Please contact the <a href="mailto:php-qa@lists.php.net">
- QA mailinglist</a> if you are interested in participating or if
- you have any questions. Alternatively you can join #php..pecl on
- Efnet or the #phptestfest channel on Freenode IRC server. There
- should usually be someone around to help.
-
- <h3>Do you also provide a smaller version of the logo?</h3>
- Yes, here you go (scale as needed):<a href="testfest_scalable.svg">
- scalable image</a><br />
