Strange characters during units tests

Hi all,

while importing a new project in work into Eclipse, I managed to overwrite all my trackstar work which was very disappointing. Luckily the publisher provides code for each chapter so I installed the app at the end of chapter 8, configured the app for my environment and ran the unit tests. The tests all pass as mine did, BUT I get weird characters:

OK (15 tests, 40 assertions)

This is really puzzling. Has anyone got any idea what’s going on?

2

is there any other file not related to the test in test\unit folder?

3

Yup, now that you mention it, there’s a .svn folder in the tests folder.

4

remove files “._*.php”, that’s it, ._ProjectTest.php, ._IssueTest.php, ._DbTest.php, and ._CommentTest.php

on windows, weird characters came from these files

Thank you elvan-problem solved.

I would be obliged if someone could tell me where all these ._*.php files (in the downloadable source code) come from? Are they superfluous?
