Hello everyone,
today, I looked to a handful of unit and integration tests in MediaWIki
core, and I noticed we do not have a single namespace pattern for tests.
I would find it natural for integration tests (that are already in the
integration subfolder) to be in MediaWiki\Tests\Integration namespace, and
unit tests to be in MediaWiki\Tests\Unit.
This would allow those two kind of test to use "same" class name, and would
avoid hacks similar to
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/631818/13/tests/phpunit/u…
.
However, I'm not sure if this pattern I described in previous paragraphs is
the best one, and what is the best way of going forward in this case.
Thanks for any comments,
Martin
Hi,
This is an informational message for users of MediaWiki-Docker.
We just merged a change[0] to Mediawiki-Docker's working directory. This
change was made in order to support rest.php[1]. It also makes use of a new
docker image that fixes issues with loading pages with slashes in
VisualEditor[2].
As a result of this change, your existing LocalSettings.php file may point
to the wrong database directory. Although there is a script that should
update it automatically for you[3], you can take a look at the
DEVELOPERS.md troubleshooting section in core if you happen to run into an
issue connecting to your database.

This week's deployment branch of MediaWiki encountered multiple issues
during deployments, first on Wednesday and again on Thursday, ultimately
ending in rolling back to wmf.10 each time[1]. Further, Thursday's
deployment resulted in a security incident which is currently still under
investigation[2].
Due to the ongoing investigation, deployments of wmf.11 are blocked until
further notice.
You can find more information in Phabricator and I will update this mailing
list when the status changes.
Sincerely,
The humble train conductor.

2. T264370 User authentication security issue (Oct 1)
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T264370>
Everyone on all Wikimedia wikis has been logged out, and will have to log
back in again.
This was done out of an abundance of caution, after we received one (1)
user report of being logged in as someone else.
Said report coincided with the deployment of a new MediaWiki release which
caused other problems around User session objects; this is possibly related
and under active investigation.
We believe the number of possibly-affected users was small, and that the
time window in which the error was possible was short. However, we believe
that resetting all sessions is a prudent measure to ensure that the impact
is limited.
More details to follow, after technical investigation has determined a
cause. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T264370
Apologies for the disruption,
