Unit testing

We made Unit Testing easy and pretty. The only thing you need to do is write your unit tests. To do so, go to application/models/unit_model.php and create the unit tests in the appropriate places. When you're done, all you need to do is call index.php/unit from your browser to generate a unit test report.

Writing a unit test

1. You need to place all your unit tests into application/models/unit_model.php.
2. Write your tests in the following manner in the function retrieve_tests()

	$tests[] = array(
		'rv' => $this->test_model->validate_email('tacticalazn@gmail.com'),
		'ev' => true,
		't' => 'validate_email("tacticalazn@gmail.com")',
		'n' => 'Checking if email validation works.'
	);

* **rv** represents the returned value by the function
* **ev** is the expected value from _rv_
    * You can set this to a true value or a type match.
    * Available type matches.
        * is_object, is_string, is_bool, is_true, is_false, is_int, is_numeric, is_float, is_double, is_array, is_null
* **t** is the test name, this can be anything.
* **n** is notes for the test, describe what it does.

3. Run the unit testing controller. index.php/unit
