Testing RDF Generator Version Detection in WPScan

This test suite validates the RDF Generator version detection functionality in WPScan. It focuses on testing the WpVersion finder component specifically for RDF Generator detection, ensuring accurate WordPress version identification through RDF metadata analysis.

Test Coverage Overview

The test suite covers version detection through RDF Generator analysis, a critical component for WordPress fingerprinting.

Version extraction from RDF metadata
Apache server compatibility testing
URL handling and target validation
Edge cases for different RDF Generator implementations

Implementation Analysis

The testing approach utilizes RSpec’s described_class pattern for isolated component testing. The implementation leverages fixture-based testing to simulate various RDF Generator scenarios.

Subject/let block pattern for test setup
Target object extension with Apache server capabilities
Fixture organization for test data management

Technical Details

RSpec testing framework
CMSScanner integration for target handling
Apache server module extension
Fixture-based test data
WPScan::Finders module implementation

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test suite exemplifies clean testing practices with clear separation of concerns and modular test organization. It demonstrates effective use of RSpec’s subject/let patterns for maintainable test setup, along with proper fixture management for test data isolation.

Modular test structure
Clear dependency injection
Isolated component testing
Proper test data management
