Description Tomás Cohen Arazi 2017-12-19 19:42:26 UTC
This should be dealt with in a move to Koha::Patron. But in the meantime, we need to handle this more gracefuly.

The thrown exception should be kept on moving to Koha::Patron

Comment 3 Tomás Cohen Arazi 2017-12-20 19:29:25 UTC
Note: 
- If the code is not catching problems, it is already failing, and it will now fail in a different way. But no behaviour change.
- If the code is catching problems (either Try::Tiny or just eval) the thing to test, is if the code handling the problem (in AddReturn) is expectig DBIC specific exceptions, die, etc. I grepped the code and didn't find places in which AddReturn is eval-ed and THEN the failure message is verified/inspected.

This means the behaviour is not changed by this patches. But another set of eyes is welcome.

Bug 19841: Unit tests

This patch introduces unit tests for the new behaviour of AddMember
(raising an exception if the passed categorycode is not valid.

 To test:
 - Apply this patch
 - Run:
   $ kshell
  k$ prove t/db_dependent/Members.t
=> FAIL: It should fail because the feature is still not implemented.

Bug 19841: Make AddMember raise an exception if categorycode is invalid

This patch makes C4::Members::AddMember raise a Koha::Exceptions::BadParameter
exception. The current behaviour is to just explode. Code calling
AddReturn should work as expected, unless they are looking for a
specific failure message.

It is just explodes in a way we know what happened, in the case the
categorycode is invalid.

To test:
- Apply the Unit tests patch
- Run:
  $ kshell
 k$ prove t/db_dependent/Members.t
=> FAIL: Tests fail because AddReturn doesn't raise an exception
- Apply this patch
- Run:
  $ kshell
 k$ prove t/db_dependent/Members.t
=> SUCCESS: Tests pass!
- Sign off :-D
