- Each parameter is checked for type and normalized
- Interval strings are converted to DateInterval objects
- Timeouts can be specified as interval strings
- Most intervals can be null to signify infinity
- Driver classes are checked that they implement the correct interface
- Short driver names may be used, and are used by default
- Helpful errors messages are printed in case of erroneous configuration
Exporting is currently broken; this will be fixed in an upcoming commit
Tests for different drivers will have their own files, but all derive
from a common prototype test series where applicable, similar to the
existing arrangement for database function tests. However, the prototype
will reside with other test cases rather than in the library path. The
database function test series will hopefully be moved as well in time.
assertMessage will test the method and target URL of requests, attributes of server requests, as well as the existing testing of a response's status code. All messages' bodies and header fields are tested for equivalence (with a special case for JSON response bodies).
While the test suite passes, this commit yields a broken server: replacing ad hoc request objectss with PSR-7 ones is still required, as is emission of PSR-7 responses. Both will come in subsequent commits, with tests
Diactoros was chosen specifically because it includes facilities for emitting responses, something which is awkward to test. The end of this refactoring should see both the Response and Request classes disappear, and the general REST class fully covered (as well as any speculative additions to AbstractHanlder).
