Module:Params/testcases

This is the testcases page for testing the behaviour of Module:Params.

As the module provides most of its functionalities only when called by templates, this page uses helper subtemplates to do its tests. You can find a list of these here.

General tests

Multi-purpose helper subtemplates

Helper subtemplate {{./multi}}

The {{./multi}} subtemplate allows to simulate in one single call both the incoming parameters and the parameters possibly concatenated to {{#invoke:params|...|function|...}}, using a single hyphen (-) as a separator between the two groups. This allows to perform generic tests without having to create test templates.

For instance, writing

{{Module:Params/testcases/multi|
	setting|i/p|<br />|: |list|
	-|hello|world|foo=bar}}

will simulate a call with |1=hello, |2=world, and |foo=bar to a template whose content is {{#invoke:params|setting|i/p|<br />|: |list}}, thus producing:

Miscellaneous helper subtemplates

Helper subtemplate {{./print1}}

The {{./print1}} subtemplate only echoes the first unnamed parameter passed and discards the others (i.e. simply {{{1|}}}).

Testing single functions

Testing the list function

Helper subtemplate {{./echo}}

The {{./echo}} subtemplate calls the {{#invoke:params|list}} function to echo the code it was called with.

Example:

Markup	Renders as
{{Module:Params/testcases/echo|hello|world|foo=bar}}
