Description
Process isolation can only be set via attributes in test classes (either overall on a class or on a single method) or on execution level (with attribute in XML or as a command line argument).
It would be good to enable process isolation on a middle ground, for instance for an entire suite or at a test base class level.
Drupal completed support of PHPUnit 10 in https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3417066, and we needed there to find a workaround for this - there are 5 test suites in configuration, 3 of which have tests that need to run in process isolation, the others don't.
Since for each test suite there's a base test class extending from TestCase, we resolved by extending the constructor and setting process isolation there:
public function __construct(string $name) {
parent::__construct($name);
$this->setRunTestInSeparateProcess(TRUE);
}
Prior to PHPUnit 10, this was possible by overriding TestCase properties, but this is no longer possible. The workaround works, but extends a constructor marked @internal
and we are exposed to potential changes.
