Timothy Jacobs 88ec90d6df REST API: Support a route-level validation callback.
Most request data is validated on a per-parameter basis. Often, however, additional validation is needed that operates on the entire request object. Currently, this is done in the route callback and often in the `prepare_item_for_database` method specifically.

#50244 aims to introduce batch processing in the REST API. An important feature is the ability to enforce that all requests have valid data before executing the route callbacks in "pre-validate" mode.

This patch introduces support for calling a `validate_callback` after all parameter validation has succeeded. That allows moving more validation outside of the route callback and into `WP_REST_Request` which will improve "pre-validate" support.

The short version:

1. Create a clean MySQL database and user.  DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE or you will lose data, guaranteed.

2. Copy wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php, edit it and include your database name/user/password.

3. $ svn up

4. Run the tests from the "trunk" directory:
   To execute a particular test:
      $ phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/test_case.php
   To execute all tests:
      $ phpunit

Notes:

Test cases live in the 'tests' subdirectory.  All files in that directory will be included by default.  Extend the WP_UnitTestCase class to ensure your test is run.

phpunit will initialize and install a (more or less) complete running copy of WordPress each time it is run.  This makes it possible to run functional interface and module tests against a fully working database and codebase, as opposed to pure unit tests with mock objects and stubs.  Pure unit tests may be used also, of course.

Changes to the test database will be rolled back as tests are finished, to ensure a clean start next time the tests are run.

phpunit is intended to run at the command line, not via a web server.
