dataProvider in DUnit Delphi?

How to provide data for Unit Tests in Delphi DUnit) ? For example, in PHP, you can do something like this:

  public function URLProvider() {
    return [
      ["https://helloacm.com"],
      ["https://codingforspeed.com"]
    ];
  }

  /**
   * @dataProvider URLProvider
   */  
  public function test_url($url) {
    $data = file_get_contents("$this->API?url=$url");
    $result = json_decode($data, true);
    $this->assertEquals(true, $result['result']);
    $this->assertEquals(200, $result['code']);
  }

With Spring4D DUnit extensions you can write something like that (look into the release/1.2 branch in the Tests\Source folder for the unit Spring.Testing).

program Tests;

uses
  Spring.Testing,
  TestInsight.DUnit;

type
  TUrlTests = class(TTestCase)
  public
    class function UrlProvider: TArray<string>; static;
  published
    [TestCaseSource('UrlProvider')]
    procedure TestUrl(const url: string);
  end;

{ TUrlTests }

procedure TUrlTests.TestUrl(const url: string);
begin
  // do whatever
end;

class function TUrlTests.UrlProvider: TArray<string>;
begin
  Result := ['https://helloacm.com', 'https://codingforspeed.com'];
end;

begin
  TUrlTests.Register;
  RunRegisteredTests;
end.

You can either pass the name to the method within the same Testcase class or specify another class - the method itself must be a public static class function. The extension then will create different test cases for each parameter being passed. You can check the Unittests of Spring4D for other use cases.

In DUnit every single test case has to be a procedure without parameters. So there can't exist a mechanism for injecting arguments via custom attributes to test methods like you are doing it PHPUnit.

You should take a look at DUnitX instead where you can define tests like this:

[TestCase('https://helloacm.com')]
[TestCase('https://codingforspeed.com']
procedure TestUrl(const Url: String);
