[meta] Remove usage of t() in tests not testing translation

Created on 5 May 2020, over 4 years ago
Updated 25 August 2024, 4 months ago

Problem/Motivation

There is no need to use t() in tests, unless we're testing translations, however in core we do not follow this consistently, which does not set a good example for new contributions.

A rough estimation, adapted from that one of @longwave 🐛 Fix label visibility and add wrapper container for exposed numeric/date filters with multiple form elements Fixed , shows that here are 4247 instances of this as of 22b08be669260979ec6a45676b16be79c89719eb:

$ find core -type f -iname '*Test.php' | xargs grep '[^a-zA-Z]t(' | wc -l
4247

We will need to ensure to leave t() where the test actually tests the translation system.

Proposed resolution

Scan through the list generaged by find core -type f -iname '*Test.php' | xargs grep '[^a-zA-Z]t(' > remove_t_list.txt
Remove any usages of t() if the test is not testing the translation system.

Remaining tasks

  1. Get confirmation about the scope from committer(s) - split up the task by core module or subsystem or something else?
  2. Do it.
  3. Review it.
  4. Commit it.
