PHP-Unit-Test

To run the tests from the root folder, just run:

vendor/bin/phpunit

Would you like to run specific test, add the qualified name of it just after a space. For example, to run the unit test in Chapter02\Exercise3 run:

vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Chapter02/Exercise3

Be aware that some tests require a web server running, so before running the tests, do this from the root folder:

php -S localhost:8000

Dependencies

In order to run tests you would need to install some external dependencies, like PHP Unit. To do so, as you learned in the Book, you use Composer. If you look into the composer.json file included, you would see the following dependencies:

  • PHPUnit: it is the framework most used in the PHP community to run unit tests.
  • Symfony Dom Crawler: a library you would need to test the post of HTML forms to the web server. (you would not need this until Chapter 6).
  • Symfony CSS Selector: a library to filter the contents of HTML documents using HTML tags and CSS selectors.
  • Monolog: a library to handle logging.
  • Guzzle: a library that wraps up CURL so that it is easier to handle them.
