Testing WordPress Plugin ConfigParser Implementation in WPScan

This test suite focuses on validating the ConfigParser functionality for WordPress plugin detection in WPScan. It examines the dynamic finder implementation for parsing configuration files to identify and verify plugin versions.

Test Coverage Overview

The test suite covers the WPScan::Finders::Plugins::ConfigParser implementation for WordPress plugin detection.

Key areas include:
  • Dynamic finder behavior for plugin version detection
  • Configuration file parsing validation
  • Target URL handling and fixture processing
  • Plugin model integration verification

Implementation Analysis

The testing approach utilizes RSpec’s shared examples pattern to validate the ConfigParser finder implementation. It leverages the DynamicFinder::WpItems::Finder shared context to ensure consistent behavior across plugin detection scenarios.

Technical implementation includes:
  • Behavior-driven development with RSpec
  • Shared example pattern implementation
  • Dynamic finder architecture validation

Technical Details

Testing infrastructure includes:
  • RSpec testing framework
  • Dynamic finder fixtures for test data
  • WPScan target model integration
  • HTTP request mocking capabilities
  • Configuration file parsing utilities

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test suite demonstrates strong testing practices through structured shared examples and clear separation of concerns. Notable practices include:
  • Modular test organization
  • Fixture-based testing approach
  • Comprehensive behavioral validation
  • Clear test isolation and setup
