The assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase() function is a builtin function in PHPUnit and is used to assert a string containing a substring but ignoring the case of substring. This assertion will return true in the case if the string contains the substring as a substring ignoring case-sensitivity, else return false and in case of true the asserted test case got passed else test case got failed.

Syntax:

assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase(string $substring, string $string, string $message = ''])

Parameters: This function accepts three parameters as shown in the above syntax. The parameters are described below:

  1. $substring: This parameter represents the string to be substring of given string.
  2. $string: This parameter is string for which the assert function will check whether it contains substring(ignoring case-sensitivity) or not.
  3. $message: This parameter takes string value. When the testcase got failed this string message got displayed as error message.

Below programs illustrate the assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase() function:

Program 1:




<?php
use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
  
class GeeksPhpunitTestCase extends TestCase
{
    public function testNegativeTestcaseForAssertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase()
    {
        $testString = "geekforgeek";
        $substring = "geeks"
        // assert function to test whether 'geeks' is a substring of testString ignoring case-sensitivity
        $this->assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase($substring, $testString, "testString doesn't contains 'geeks' as substring") ;
    }
}
  
?>


Output:

PHPUnit 8.2.5 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors.

Program 2:




<?php

class GeeksPhpunitTestCase extends TestCase
{
    public function testPositiveTestcaseForAssertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase()
    {
        $testString = "geekforgeek";
        $substring = "geEk"
        // assert function to test whether 'gEek' is a substring of testString
        $this->assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase($substring, $testString, "testString doesn't contains 'geEk' as substring") ;
    }
}
  
?>

.                                                                   1 / 1 (100%)

OK (1 test, 1 assertion)

Note : To run testcases with phpunit follow steps from here. Also, assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase() is supported by phpunit 7 and above.
