      Unit tests cover this.

      Our CI infrastructure runs on DBs which are all case-sensitive.
      You will need to install Moodle with a case-insensitive collation to test this. All other cases are already covered.

      Note: Easier to test with MDK.

      DB with case-sensitive collation
      1. Set up a database with a case-sensitive collation (e.g. PostgreSQL)
        • If using MDK: mdk install -e pgsql
      2. Confirm that the following test passes. 

        mdk phpunit -r -u user/tests/externallib_test.php

      DB with case-insensitive collation
      1. Set up a database with case-insensitive collation (e.g. MySQL with a collation of utf8mb4_unicode_ci)
        • If using MDK: mdk install -e mysqli
      2. Confirm that the following test passes. 

        mdk phpunit -r -u user/tests/externallib_test.php
