SRP 50% from 2 tests

🔹 Tests weight: 20 | A shallow check of the single-responsibility principle; PHP files should perform no action - including output of placeholder text - and trigger no errors when accessed directly
Please fix the following
  • 4× PHP files trigger server errors when accessed directly:
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function plugin_basename() in wp-content/plugins/advanced-text-widget/advancedtext.php:24
    • > PHP Fatal error
      require_once(): Failed opening required 'ATW_LIB/wp_plugin_admin.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in wp-content/plugins/advanced-text-widget/options/options.php on line 3
    • > PHP Warning
      Use of undefined constant ATW_LIB - assumed 'ATW_LIB' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in wp-content/plugins/advanced-text-widget/options/options.php on line 3
    • > PHP Warning
      require_once(ATW_LIB/wp_plugin_admin.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in wp-content/plugins/advanced-text-widget/options/options.php on line 3

User-side errors 0% from 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | Just a short smoke test targeting errors on the browser (console and network errors and warnings)
These are user-side errors you should fix
    • > GET request to /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=atw
    • > Network (severe)
    wp-content/plugins/advanced-text-widget/js/min/scripts.min.js?ver=5.9.2 - Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
    • > GET request to /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=atw
