Template:Search link/testcases

This full test suite tests all the parameters in named and unnamed forms:

1. |query= and |text= tested explicitly per the link label
2. |label= and |link= tested implicitly during the other tests
3. |ns= with one and two namespaces

It tests all possible types of values for the parameters.

• Each grouping should have the same number of hits.
• Many just search this page (prefix:{{fullpagename}}}, and so they are very fast.
• Some use a dummy prefix just to test the name and query outputs.
• For |ns= tests, check the URL.
• The link should simply look "good". The query is [sandbox] so that the label can be tested to ignore brackets.
