Auxiliary tests

"Name" parameter missing

This should generate "Untitled" unitalicized.

"Name" parameter with empty value

This tests Name=. Like the test with a missing "name" parameter, this should generate "Untitled" unitalicized.

"Type" parameter with "single" and "song" values

These values are not supposed to be supported as specific infoboxes exist. So the infobox should display in its default apricot color.

"Type" parameter with "other" and specified "longtype"

"Cover" parameter with empty value

This tests |Cover=, which should leave the area blank.

"Cover" parameter with "blank" value

This tests |Cover=blank, which should leave the area blank.

"Cover" parameter with "???" value

This tests the use of |Cover=??? which should use File:Nocover.png as a cover, rather than show a red link to Image:???.

Album name with double exclamation point

This test uses a field value with a double exclamation point. This will work as long the infobox is build using HTML instead of wikicode. If wikicode is used an extra table cell will be generated in the infobox.
