Came across a situation similar to [1] where I had to call submit() function of a FormSpecialPage during a unit test. We have something going on in the background, and $this->getUser() needs to return a valid user.
Is there a way to mimic this context inside the unit test, so that I can manually set a $user in the unit test, and this would be used while performing inner operations ?
No need to mimic, you can just inject it (as long as the special page correctly uses $this->getUser() & co instead of using globals, which is usually not a problem with special pages) :
$specialPage = $this->newSpecialPage(); $context = new DerivativeContext( RequestContext::getMain() ); $context->setUser( $user ); $context->setRequest( ... ); $specialPage->setContext( $context ); $res = $specialPage->onSubmit( $input );
