Maybe it's not a coincidence that webonyx/graphql-php is involved, too?

I'm seeing similar errors over at https://github.com/rebing/graphql-laravel when I run composer update and run the test suite.

[mfn]

Is https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/5866 a regression of this?

We had to lock phpunit to 10.5.20 due to this.

[sebastianbergmann]

Thank you for your report.

Please provide a minimal, self-contained, reproducing test case that shows the problem you are reporting.

Without such a minimal, self-contained, reproducing test case I will not be able to investigate this issue.

[mfn]

Sorry meant: possible regression of https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/pull/5861 ?

Destroy TestCase object after its test was run

Because the error is triggered in \PHPUnit\Framework\TestSuiteIterator::current

[sebastianbergmann]

Yes, #5861 would be the only change in PHPUnit 10.5.21 that could explain this.

[mfn]

I just noticed also a difference:

• when i just run vendor/bin/phpunit -> fails as described above
• when I run vendor/bin/phpunit path/to/test/file/which/justfailed/above.php -> error not triggered, test is green

Luckily, I can reproduce it when I provide a custom @group foo on the test and run with --group foo filter.

[mfn]

I set a breakpoint on the condition !isset($this->tests[$this->position])

There's no match on that position although there are elements in that array.

It seems there's something in webonyx/graphql-php specifically, which triggers this state.

I think I mostly see this when a test fails, the webonyx/graphql-php catches the error and, as part of the processing of that error, from the screenshot:

• toSafeTrace()
• printVar()

Eventally, printVar() receives a TestSuite object and the generic code therein detects it is of type \Countable and calls count() on it:

        if (\is_object($var)) {
            return 'instance of ' . \get_class($var) . ($var instanceof \Countable ? '(' . \count($var) . ')' : '');
        }

When I remove that count() call -> no problems.

[sebastianbergmann]

I think I mostly see this when a test fails, the webonyx/graphql-php catches the error and, as part of the processing of that error, from the screenshot

If that that is indeed the root cause here then I will close this as "won't fix". An error handler that is not PHPUnit's must not mess with exceptions raised by PHPUnit that indicate test failure.

[mfn]

Hmm, but how is count() on a \Countable messing around with anything? 🤔

[sebastianbergmann]

That is besides the point: the TestSuite object in question, as well as the associated iterator, are internal to PHPUnit's test runner and must not be used from outsite of PHPUnit's test runner. As of #5861, TestCase objects aggregated in TestSuite are delete after their test was run.

Then maybe the \Countable should be removed, as it's not fulfilling the contract?

@mfn you've indeed found the issue, it is not directly related to phpunit. ~For some reason~ the count() call on Testcase object triggers the sideeffect via https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/blob/1d08c5292edf73998a83a5119e3ecc77e3e8c1ef/src/Framework/TestSuite.php#L265-L274 that invokes FilterIterator and messes with tests indexing. https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/blob/1d08c5292edf73998a83a5119e3ecc77e3e8c1ef/src/Framework/TestSuite.php#L416-L424
