This originates from #28119#note-2.

We might want to add a simple test (like "@ApplicationHelperTest#test_footnotes@":/projects/redmine/repository/revisions/17198/entry/trunk/test/helpers/application_helper_test.rb#L1051, but than in source:trunk/test/unit/lib/redmine/wiki_formatting/markdown_formatter_test.rb) for markdown footnotes as enabled per #16072.¶

And while looking at the above, the question of 'how many other textile syntax tests are there remaining, lurking outside of source:/trunk/test/unit/lib/redmine/wiki_formatting/textile_formatter_test.rb and what do we want to do with them?' came up...¶

** The answer to the first part would be 'several' (among them e.g. @ApplicationHelperTest#test_footnotes@). My answer to the second part of the question would be 'move them to the dedicated @TextileFormatterTest@ class'.

I'll leave two patches against source:/trunk@17198:

• 0001-Add-footnotes-test-for-markdown-formatter-16072.patch ** This patch adds a footnotes test for the markdown formatter (@MarkdownFormatterTest#test_footnotes@).
• 0002-Move-textile-footnotes-test-to-TextileFormatterTest.patch ** This patch moves @ApplicationHelperTest#test_footnotes@ to become @TextileFormatterTest#test_footnotes@.

In case there is consensus on my answer to the question raised under point 2, I'll open a dedicated container issue for it.

Note: I won't target this issue to any version, as I don't think this is of any use for the changelogs.
