Overview -------- [](#overview) A lightweight, customizable exam simulator built with Symfony Console components. Practice with separate PHP and Symfony question banks, configure question counts, and get instant feedback with links to official documentation. ### Goals [](#goals) - Simulate realistic certification exam conditions with customizable question counts - Support questions with single or multiple correct answers - Provide immediate feedback with references to official PHP and Symfony documentation - Help candidates practice under exam-like conditions with randomized answer ordering ### What this project includes [](#what-this-project-includes) - **Question bank**: Separate PHP and Symfony question sets in `data/` directory - **Documentation links**: Automatic linking to official PHP and Symfony documentation - **Exam simulator**: Customizable exam sessions with configurable question counts - **Interactive CLI**: Built with Symfony Console components for a smooth user experience ### Key features [](#key-features) - **Customizable exam sessions**: Configure the number of PHP and Symfony questions (default: 50 each) - **Flexible question filtering**: Run PHP-only, Symfony-only, or mixed question sets - **Multiple-choice support**: Questions with single or multiple correct answers - **Answer randomization**: Answer order is shuffled for each question to prevent pattern memorization - **Interactive CLI interface**: Progress bar, formatted output, and easy answer selection - **Instant feedback**: Immediate correct/incorrect indication after each answer - **Documentation links**: Direct links to official PHP and Symfony documentation for incorrect answers - **Score summary**: Final results table showing percentage, correct, and incorrect answer counts Architecture ------------ [](#architecture) The project is organized into the following components: ### Core Classes (`src/`) [](#core-classes-src) - **`ExamCommand`**: Symfony Console command handling user interaction, question presentation, and answer collection - **`ExamFactory`**: Factory class responsible for creating exam instances with randomized questions based on provided options - **`Exam`**: Value object representing an exam session with scoring and percentage calculation methods - **`Question`**: Value object representing a single question with answers, correct answers, and documentation links - **`QuestionProvider`**: Service for loading PHP and Symfony questions from data files ### Entry Point (`bin/`) [](#entry-point-bin) - **`exam-start`**: CLI entry point that bootstraps the Symfony Console application ### Question Banks (`data/`) [](#question-banks-data) - **`php-questions.php`**: Array of PHP questions covering OOP, SPL, type system, and more - **`sf-questions.php`**: Array of Symfony framework questions Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP >= 8.2 - Standard PHP extensions (no additional special requirements) - Composer Installation ------------ [](#installation) ### Quick Start (Recommended) [](#quick-start-recommended) Download the latest PHAR release: ``` wget https://github.com/raffaelecarelle/symfony-certification-simulator/releases/latest/download/symfony-certification.phar chmod +x symfony-certification.phar ./symfony-certification.phar ``` Or install globally: ``` sudo mv symfony-certification.phar /usr/local/bin/symfony-certification symfony-certification ``` ### Usage (CLI) [](#usage-cli) ``` # Run with default settings (50 PHP + 50 Symfony questions) ./symfony-certification.phar # Run with only PHP questions ./symfony-certification.phar --php-only # Run with only Symfony questions ./symfony-certification.phar --sf-only # Custom number of questions ./symfony-certification.phar --php-questions=30 --sf-questions=70 ``` ### Command options [](#command-options) The exam simulator supports several options to customize your practice session: - `--php-only` or `-p`: Run the exam with only PHP questions - `--sf-only` or `-S`: Run the exam with only Symfony questions - `--php-questions=N`: Set the number of PHP questions (default: 50) - `--sf-questions=N`: Set the number of Symfony questions (default: 50) **Examples:** ``` # Run exam with only PHP questions php bin/exam-start --php-only # Run exam with only Symfony questions php bin/exam-start --sf-only # Custom number of questions php bin/exam-start --php-questions=30 --sf-questions=70 # Combined: only PHP questions with custom count php bin/exam-start --php-only --php-questions=25 ``` ### Usage notes [](#usage-notes) - Some questions have multiple correct answers: select them by separating with a comma (e.g., "A,C"). - When the answer is incorrect, a link to the corresponding official documentation (if available) will be shown. - At the end of the exam, a table with percentage, number of correct and incorrect answers is displayed. Development: tests and code quality ----------------------------------- [](#development-tests-and-code-quality) - Run tests (PHPUnit): ``` ./vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.xml.dist ``` - Static analysis (PHPStan): ``` ./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse -c phpstan.neon ``` - Automated refactoring (Rector): ``` ./vendor/bin/rector ``` - Formatting and style fixes (PHP-CS-Fixer): ``` ./vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix --diff ``` Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) ### For Contributors [](#for-contributors) If you want to contribute to the project, you'll need to clone the repository: ``` git clone https://github.com/raffaelecarelle/symfony-certification-simulator.git cd symfony-certification-simulator composer install ``` ### Contribution Guidelines [](#contribution-guidelines) Contributions of any kind are welcome. Suggested guidelines: - Open an issue to propose new questions or to fix existing ones. - For PRs that modify the question bank, keep explanations concise and include a reference (sf-doc/php-doc) when possible. - Run tests and quality tools locally before opening the PR: - `./vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.xml.dist` - `./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse -c phpstan.neon` - `./vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix --diff` - Stick to PHP >= 8.2 and the project's current standards.
