      1. Knock up a local add-on with an install.php containing something like

      function xmldb_local_convertoldbackup_install() {
      		 
          global $DB, $CFG;
      		 
          require_once($CFG->dirroot . '/local/convertoldbackup/locallib.php');
      		 
       
      		 
          // Create category if it doesn't exist
      		 
          if (!$DB->record_exists('course_categories',
      		 
                  array('name'=>'Converted 1.9 websites'))) {
      		 
              $category = (object)array(
      		 
                  'name'=>'Converted 1.9 websites',
      		 
                  'parent'=>0,
      		 
                  'sortorder'=>90000,
      		 
                  'coursecount'=>0,
      		 
                  'visible'=>1,
      		 
                  'visibleold'=>1,
      		 
                  'depth'=>1);
      		 
              $id = $DB->insert_record('course_categories', $category);
      		 
              $DB->set_field('course_categories', 'path', '/' . $id, array('id'=>$id));
      		 
              cache::make('core', 'coursecat')->purge();
      		 
              context_coursecat::instance($id);
      		 
          }
      		 
      }

      and a version.php.

      Re-install your PHPUnit tables, and run the unit tests.

Re-install your PHPUnit tables, and run the unit tests.

      Core unit tests must not hard-code things like context ids. If you install an Add-on like mod_oublog, then logs of core unit tests fail.

      I'm fixing this.
