Hello Karima,

We unfortunately do not have support to spawn multiple MediaWiki at this
time. Not that it is impossible but we just don't have the code to be
able to define those instances and boot them.

On CI the tests are run in a single container. In it, MediaWiki is being
setup and installed using Quibble: https://doc.wikimedia.org/quibble/ It
is a home made tool that roughly:

* clone a set of repositories defined in CI and get patches from Gerrit
* install the composer dependencies
* run unit test commands
* Spawn a database and web server
* run the rest of tests such as the Selenium ones

It is all done serially and Quibble only supports setting up and
spawning a single MediaWiki instance. In the ideal world we would rely
on something like docker-composer to spawn a set of containers and then
run tests in that environment, but that doesn't exist yet.

Maybe some of those tests could be written via PHPUnit? I don't know how
to simulate two MediaWiki instances in there though :-\

I have long wanted that, and I have recently worked on making this possible as a
personal side project. However, the devil is in the details...

Have a look at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T261848

Ok.

Is it possible to send a http request [2] after a new merge in the master
branch of my extensions ?
If yes, I can probably use GitHub Actions to spawn multiple MediaWiki at
this time [1] and execute my tests after each merge.

What do you think about this method ?
