In order to run the framework tests you have to place the project folder so as it would be done with Composer with an App skeleton. This is due to the fact that the tests use the app skeleton for several input sources and output. Also be sure that a database is running and adjust the settings.

Then go to the framework base directory and issue the following command to run the framework tests

```
"vendor/bin/phpunit" --stderr
```
