Jonny Harris eb6bf15bc7 Posts, Post Types: Use WP_Query internally in get_pages.
Convert `get_pages` to use `WP_Query` internally. Using WP_Query means that a lot of code has been removed however existing parameters supported by get_pages are transformed in to query arguments. The custom caching solution found in the old version of this function is replaced with the caching found in WP_Query (added in [53941]). This change adds consistency to the codebase, as improvements and changes to `WP_Query` will filter down to the `get_pages` function.

Fixes #12821.

The short version:

1. Create a clean MySQL database and user. DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE or you will lose data, guaranteed.

2. Copy wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php, edit it and include your database name/user/password.

3. $ svn up

4. Run the tests from the "trunk" directory:
   To execute a particular test:
      $ phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/test_case.php
   To execute all tests:
      $ phpunit

Notes:

Test cases live in the 'tests' subdirectory. All files in that directory will be included by default. Extend the WP_UnitTestCase class to ensure your test is run.

phpunit will initialize and install a (more or less) complete running copy of WordPress each time it is run. This makes it possible to run functional interface and module tests against a fully working database and codebase, as opposed to pure unit tests with mock objects and stubs. Pure unit tests may be used also, of course.

Changes to the test database will be rolled back as tests are finished, to ensure a clean start next time the tests are run.

phpunit is intended to run at the command line, not via a web server.
