Description:

When running system tests for plugins there is currently an uncaught exception when the tests starts running.
See eg. https://travis-ci.com/github/matomo-org/matomo/jobs/507308739#L732

This is caused by a dataprovider that tries to fetch available segments before the database is actually set up. As the visitor id segment tries to check for a system settings this fails.

This actually caused the AutoSuggestAPI test not to run anymore

Review

• Functional review done
• Potential edge cases thought about (behavior of the code with strange input, with strange internal state or possible interactions with other Matomo subsystems)
• Usability review done (is anything maybe unclear or think about anything that would cause people to reach out to support)
• Security review done see checklist
• Code review done
• Tests were added if useful/possible
• Reviewed for breaking changes
• Developer changelog updated if needed
• Documentation added if needed
• Existing documentation updated if needed
