Question

There is something weird going on in my code so i have to ask.

I have a part of a test:

public function testGetAddresses()
{
    //$this->markTestIncomplete('Not implemented yet');
    $this->assertTrue($this->_prs->getAddresses() instanceof Crm_Collection);
}

This test fails.

But when I do this:

if ($entity->getAddresses() instanceof Crm_Collection) {
    echo "TRUE!";
} else {
    echo "FALSE!";
}

It outputs TRUE!

Anybody knows what is going on or might this be a bug in phpunit?

Thanks!

I don’t think it’s an issue with phpunit, doublecheck your code.

Additionally you can use:

$this->assertType("Classname", $object)

so you get a nice error in case it fails.
(Phpunit will tell you “expected class, got null” instead of “expected true, got false” with helps a lot while debugging 🙂 )
