Re: [Wikitech-l] Unit-testing a tag extension (parser blows up)?

You're calling the recursiveTagParse while the parser is not in a "parsing" state.

Thanks for the explanation.

The easiest way to do this is to have some text "yadda yadda<mytag>foo</mytag>" and pass it to $wgParser->parse

I tried this:

$this->assertEquals($wgParser->parse("<mytag>foo</mytag>", Title:newFromText("some page"), new ParserOptions), 'the output here');

but parse() produces weird artifacts like <!--LINK 2:3--> in the output, which are not predictable as unit test output. Any suggestions to prevent this?
