PHP coding dojo project
=======================

[](#php-coding-dojo-project)

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

To install the project:

```
php composer.phar create-project matthiasnoback/php-coding-dojo [path] *

```

You will have an empty `src/` directory and a `phpunit.xml.dist` that is configured to run all the PHPUnit tests names `*Test.php` in the directories `src/*/Tests` (and their subdirectories). When you use this configuration the Composer autoloader will be initialized automatically to make sure that every namespaced class inside `src/` can be auto-loaded from within the test cases.

### Configure PHPStorm to run the tests

[](#configure-phpstorm-to-run-the-tests)

- Choose `Run`, `Edit configurations...` and remove any existing configuration.
- Select `Defaults - PHPUnit`, put a check before `Use alternative configuration file` and select `phpunit.xml.dist` from this project.
- Click the button to the right of this field. In the dialog that appears select `Use custom loader` and select the file `vendor/autoload.php` inside your project. This will make sure PHPStorm uses the bundled version of PHPUnit.

To validate your setup once you have installed this project, run the tests: right-click on the `src/` directory and then select `Run 'src'`.

Run the unit tests
------------------

[](#run-the-unit-tests)

To run all tests in a testcase press `Ctrl + Shift + F10` when the cursor is *not* inside a method. To run one test press `Ctrl + Shift + F10` when the cursor is inside a method. To repeat the previous test run press `Shift + F10`.

Or you can run the tests from the command-line:

```
php vendor/bin/phpunit

```

When you first run the tests, PHPStorm might ask you to supply a PHP interpreter.

PHPUnit cheatsheet
------------------

[](#phpunit-cheatsheet)

You can use my [PHPUnit cheatsheet](https://github.com/matthiasnoback/workshop-unit-testing/blob/master/cheatsheet.md)as a quick reference for PHPUnit usage.
