 [Creating new test files]
 -------------------------
  Writing test file is very easy if you are used to PHP. 
+See the HOWTO at http://qa.php.net/write-test.php
 
-Here is an actual test file from standard module.
-
-===== ext/standard/tests/strings/strtr.phpt =======
---TEST--
-strtr() function
---FILE--
-<?php
-/* Do not change this test it is a REATME.TESTING example. */
-$trans = array("hello"=>"hi", "hi"=>"hello", "a"=>"A", "world"=>"planet");
-var_dump(strtr("# hi all, I said hello world! #", $trans));
-?>
---EXPECT--
-string(32) "# hello All, I sAid hi planet! #"
-===== ext/standard/tests/strings/strtr.phpt =======
-
-As you can see the file is devided into several sections. Below is a
-list of all possible sections:
-
-"--TEST--"        is title of the test (required).
-"--SKIPIF--"      is condition when to skip this test (optional).
-"--POST--"        is POST variable passed to test script (optional).
-"--GET--"         is GET variable passed to test script (optional).
-"--INI--"         each line contains an ini setting e.g. foo=bar (optional).
-"--FILE--"        is the test script (required).
-"--EXPECT--"      is the expected output from the test script (required).
-"--EXPECTF--"     is an alternative of --EXPECT--. The difference is that
-                  this form uses sscanf for output validation (alternative).
-"--EXPECTREGEX--" is an alternative of --EXPECT--. This form allows the tester
-                  to specify the result in a regular expression (alternative).
-
-A test must at least contain the sections TEST, FILE and either EXPECT
-or EXPECTF. When a test is called run-test.php takes the name from the
-TEST section and writes the FILE section into a ".php" file with the 
-same name as the ".phpt" file. This ".php" file will then be executed
-and its output compared to the contents of the EXPECT section. It is a
-good idea to generate output with var_dump() calls.
-
-/ext/standard/tests/strings/str_shuffle.phpt is a good example for using 
-EXPECTF instead of EXPECT. From time to time the algorithm used for shuffle 
-changed and sometimes the machine used to execute the code has influence 
-on the result of shuffle. But it always returns a three character string 
-detectable by %s. Other scan-able forms are %i for integers, %d for numbers
-only, %f for floating point values, %c for single characters and %x for 
-hexadecimal values.

-==== /ext/standard/tests/strings/str_shuffle.phpt ===
---TEST--
-Testing str_shuffle.
---FILE--
-<?php
-/* Do not change this test it is a REATME.TESTING example. */
-$s = '123';
-var_dump(str_shuffle($s));
-var_dump($s);
-?>
---EXPECTF--
-string(3) %s
-string(3) "123"
-==== end of /ext/standard/tests/strings/str_shuffle.phpt ===
-
-/ext/standard/tests/strings/strings001.phpt is a good example for using 
-EXPECTREGEX instead of EXPECT. This test also shows that in EXPECTREGEX 
-some characters need to be escaped since otherwise they would be 
-interpreted as a regular expression.
-
-==== /ext/standard/tests/strings/strings001.phpt ===
---TEST--
-Test whether strstr() and strrchr() are binary safe.
---FILE--
-<?php
-/* Do not change this test it is a REATME.TESTING example. */
-$s = "alabala nica".chr(0)."turska panica";
-var_dump(strstr($s, "nic"));
-var_dump(strrchr($s," nic"));
-?>
---EXPECTREGEX--
-string\(18\) \"nica\x00turska panica\"
-string\(19\) \" nica\x00turska panica\"
-==== end of /ext/standard/tests/strings/strings001.phpt ===
-
-Some tests depend on modules or functions available only in certain versions 
-or they even require minimum version of php or zend. These tests should be 
-skipped when the requirement cannot be fullfilled. To achieve this you can
-use the SKIPIF section. To tell run-test.php that your test should be skipped
-the SKIPIF section must print out the word "skip" followed by a reason why
-the test should skip.
-
-==== /ext/exif/tests/exif005.phpt ===
---TEST--
-Check for exif_read_data, unusual IFD start
---SKIPIF--
-<?php 
-	if (!extension_loaded('exif')) print 'skip exif extension not available';
-?>
---FILE--
-<?php
-/* Do not change this test it is a REATME.TESTING example.
- * test5.jpg is a 1*1 image that contains an Exif section with ifd = 00000009h
- */
-$image  = exif_read_data('./ext/exif/tests/test5.jpg','',true,false);
-var_dump($image['IFD0']);
-?>
---EXPECT--
-array(2) {
-  ["ImageDescription"]=>
-  string(11) "Ifd00000009"
-  ["DateTime"]=>
-  string(19) "2002:10:18 20:06:00"
-}
-==== end of /ext/exif/tests/exif005.phpt ===
-
-Test script and SKIPIF code should be directly written into *.phpt. However, 
-it is recommended to use include files when more test scripts depend on the 
-same SKIPIF code or when certain test files need the same values for some 
-input. But no file used by any test should have one of the following 
-extensions: ".php", ".log", ".exp", ".out" or ".diff".
-
-Tests should be named according to the following list:
-
-Class:                       Name:                  Example:
-Tests for bugs               bug<bugid>.phpt        bug17123.phpt
-Tests for functions          <functionname>.phpt    dba_open.phpt
-General tests for extensions <extname><no>.phpt     dba3.phpt
-
-When you use an include file for the SKIPIF section it should be named
-"skipif.inc" and an include file used in the FILE section of many tests
-should be named "test.inc".
-
-NOTE: All tests should run correctly with error_reporting(E_ALL) and
-display_errors=1. This is the default when called from run-test.php.
-If you have a good reason for lowering the error reporting, use --INI--
-section and comment this in your testcode.
-
-NOTE: If your test intentionally generates a PHP warning message use 
-$php_errormsg variable, which you can then output. This will result 
-in a consistent error message output across all platforms and PHP 
-configurations, preventing your test from failing due inconsistencies 
-in the error message content.
