This full test suite tests all the parameters in named and unnamed forms:

  1. |query= and |text= tested explicitly per the link label
  2. |label= and |link= tested implicitly during the other tests
  3. |ns= with one and two namespaces

It tests all possible types of values for the parameters.

  • Each grouping should have the same number of hits.
  • Many just search this page (prefix:{{fullpagename}}}, and so they are very fast.
  • Some use a dummy prefix just to test the name and query outputs.
  • For |ns= tests, check the URL.
  • The link should simply look "good". The query is [sandbox] so that the label can be tested to ignore brackets.
