POPHPUnit and Globals

Body
copied!<p>I am learning and exploring applications of PHPUnit with PHP 5.2.9 and have run into the globals issue. I have set $backupGlobals to FALSE, included the doc '@backupGlobals disabled' and this doesn't seem to affect the behaviour of PHPUnit's backing up of the globals. Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to alter PHPUnit's xml file? Create a bootstrap?</p> <p>config.php:</p> <pre><code>$testString = 'Hello world!'; </code></pre> <p>basicApp.php:</p> <pre><code>require ('D:\data\clients\security.ca\web_sites\QRASystems.com\wwwroot\__tests\BasicApp\config.php'); class BasicApp { public $test; public function __construct() { global $testString; $this->test = $testString; } public function getTest() { return $this->test; } public function setTest($test){ $this->test = $test; } </code></pre> <p>BasicAppTest.php:</p> <pre><code>require ('D:\data\clients\security.ca\web_sites\QRASystems.com\wwwroot\__tests\BasicApp\BasicApp.php'); class BasicAppTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase{ protected $testClass; protected $backupGlobals = FALSE; protected $backupGlobalsBlacklist = array('testString'); public function SetUp(){ $this->testClass = new BasicApp; $this->testClass->bootstrap(); } public function testGlobal(){ echo $this->testClass->getTest(); $this->assertNotNull($this->backupGlobals); $this->assertFalse($this->backupGlobals); $this->assertNotEmpty($this->testClass->test); } public function testMethods(){ $this->testClass->setTest('Goodbye World!'); echo $this->testClass->getTest(); $this->assertNotNull($this->backupGlobals); $this->assertNotNull($this->testClass->test); if (empty($this->testClass->test)) echo 'Method set failed!'; } } </code></pre> <p>testGlobal() fails on $this->assertNotEmpty($this->testClass->test), indicating that $this->backupGlobals is set to FALSE and that globals are still being back up by PHPUnit.</p> <p>EDIT: I got this working by making the following changes-</p> <p>BasicAppTest.php:</p> <pre><code> protected $backupGlobals = FALSE; <- REMOVED protected $backupGlobalsBlacklist = array('testString'); <- REMOVED </code></pre> <p>config.php:</p> <pre><code>global $testString; <- ADDED $testString = 'Hello world!'; </code></pre> <p>I am dumbfounded that this hasn't been covered before somewhere!</p>
