It depends on the test, I suppose. OutputPage has a "getHTML" method. For subclasses of SpecialPage, you can "getOutput"... Do you have draft code posted somewhere?

There's ApiTestCase for the action API, and an open patch [1] for providing similar functionality for the REST API. I don't think there is anything for web views, and the dispatching mechanism is fairly messy. (The entry point is MediaWiki::run() but that has teardown logic that would probably break the next test.) Your best bet might be making actual web requests. You can use Selenium from PHPUnit, or a number of similar tools (e.g. Goutte if you want something simple).

For instance, you could call the `::execute()` method on a class that extends SpecialPage directly. It might be helpful to know what you are trying to do though. Basically what Gergo said. :) On Wed, Oct 2, 2019 at 11:33 PM Jeroen De Dauw &lt;jeroendedauw(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Hey, > > Your best bet might be making actual web requests.
