Anybody using phpunit tests with xenforo?

I'm creating selenium tests for my add-ons, but some phpunit tests would also be cool.
I have no clue if/how it would be possible to use phpunit with the proxyclasses,etc...

I played little bit, and tried to implement a bootsrapfile which runs the framework stuff, but i had no luck with it^^
 
Anybody using phpunit tests with xenforo?
I've been using phpUnit for testing some of my xenforo-based components. (not addons, though).
These are the settings I use:

phpunit.xml
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<phpunit backupGlobals="false"
         backupStaticAttributes="true"
         colors="false"
         convertErrorsToExceptions="true"
         convertNoticesToExceptions="true"
         convertWarningsToExceptions="true"
         processIsolation="false"
         stopOnFailure="false"
         syntaxCheck="false"
         verbose="true"
         strict="true"
         bootstrap="initialize.php"
>

	<testsuites>
		<testsuite name="Your Test Suite">
			<directory>unit</directory>
		</testsuite>
	</testsuites>

</phpunit>

initialize.php
PHP:
<?php

$xfLibrary = '/path/to/xenforo/src/upload/library';

// Initialize the xenforo autoloader
require_once($xfLibrary . '/XenForo/Autoloader.php');
XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($xfLibrary);

// utf-8 helper functions
require_once($xfLibrary . '/Lgpl/utf8.php');

unset($xfLibrary);


Haven't tested any of my dynamically extended classes using phpUnit, but I think you can get it to work by creating the base proxy classes yourself. Like for example:
PHP:
class XFCP_Addon1_ControllerPublic_Account extends XenForo_ControllerPublic_Account {}

class XFCP_Addon2_Model_Thread extends XenForo_Model_Thread {}
 
Tried the initialize.php shared here to no avail, seems some things have changed since it was posted. I got it working with some small tweaks, hope this saves others some time:

PHP:
<?php
 
// Assuming you have a 'tests' directory in your XF install
$xfLibrary = dirname(__FILE__) . '/../library/';
 
// Initialize the xenforo autoloader
require_once($xfLibrary . 'XenForo/Autoloader.php');
XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($xfLibrary);
 
// Initialize XenForo App
XenForo_Application::initialize($xfLibrary, $xfLibrary);
 
unset($xfLibrary);

// Initialize XenForo App
XenForo_Application::initialize($xfLibrary, $xfLibrary);

unset($xfLibrary);
is that code still valid for the latest version? (1.5.5)
according to @Kier 's docs "XenForo_Application::initialize"s second parameter is root directory right?
PHP:
    /**
    * Helper function to initialize the application.
    *
    * @param string Path to application configuration directory. See {@link $_configDir}.
    * @param string Path to application root directory. See {@link $_rootDir}.
    * @param boolean True to load default data (config, DB, etc)
    * @param array Changes to the initialization process
    */

I just wanted to make sure the 2nd parameter is correct.
is it the same directory ($xfLibrary)? or is it "/../" (in case you are assuming you have a 'tests' directory in your XF install)
I'm just asking this because I found this code in index.php and its pointing it to root directory.
PHP:
<?php

$startTime = microtime(true);
$fileDir = dirname(__FILE__);

require($fileDir . '/library/XenForo/Autoloader.php');
XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($fileDir . '/library');

XenForo_Application::initialize($fileDir . '/library', $fileDir);
XenForo_Application::set('page_start_time', $startTime);

$fc = new XenForo_FrontController(new XenForo_Dependencies_Public());
$fc->run();
Anyone can verify this is correct? :unsure:

I did as you say but I'm getting an error, please help :(

PHP:
<?php

class XFCP_MyAddon_ControllerPublic_InlineMod_Post extends XenForo_ControllerPublic_InlineMod_Post {}

class XFCP_MyAddon_ControllerPublic_InlineMod_PostTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
    public function testdeletePost()
    {

        $controller = new XFCP_MyAddon_ControllerPublic_InlineMod_Post;

        $this->assertEquals('test', 'test');
    
    }
}

Argument 1 passed to XenForo_Controller::__construct() must be an instance of Zend_Controller_Request_Http, none given, called in /var/www/html/tests/tests/XFCP_MyAddon_ControllerPublic_InlineMod_PostTest.php on line 16 and defined
