PHPUnit Skeleton Generator
==========================

[](#phpunit-skeleton-generator)

`phpunit-skelgen` is a tool that can generate skeleton test classes from production code classes and vice versa.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### PHP Archive (PHAR)

[](#php-archive-phar)

The easiest way to obtain phpunit-skelgen is to download a [PHP Archive (PHAR)](http://php.net/phar) that has all required dependencies of phpunit-skelgen bundled in a single file:

```
wget https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-skelgen.phar
chmod +x phpunit-skelgen.phar
mv phpunit-skelgen.phar /usr/local/bin/phpunit-skelgen

```

You can also immediately use the PHAR after you have downloaded it, of course:

```
wget https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-skelgen.phar
php phpunit-skelgen.phar

```

### Composer

[](#composer)

Simply add a dependency on `phpunit/phpunit-skeleton-generator` to your project's `composer.json` file if you use [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) to manage the dependencies of your project. Here is a minimal example of a `composer.json` file that just defines a development-time dependency on phpunit/phpunit-skeleton-generator:

```
{
    "require-dev": {
        "phpunit/phpunit-skeleton-generator": "*"
    }
}

```

For a system-wide installation via Composer, you can run:

```
composer global require "phpunit/phpunit-skeleton-generator=*"

```

Make sure you have `~/.composer/vendor/bin/` in your path.
