Install PHPUnit in Xampp

Recently, I am preparing to develop Magento plug-ins. To ensure the code quality of the plug-ins, I decided to use TDD for development. The TDD development method seen in PHP practice suddenly feels open-minded, and it is easy to develop. Now I have the opportunity to implement it myself.

Of course, you also need to configure the PHPUnit development environment before rolling up your sleeves. The latest PHPUnit version has been migrated to your pear.phpunit.de website. This article assumes that you have configured the Xampp Development Environment

First, upgrade your pear version. The latest PHPUnit 3.6 requires a higher PEAR version. Open the CMD command line in the Start Menu.

cd /d D:\xampp\phppear config-showCONFIGURATION (CHANNEL PEAR.PHP.NET):=====================================Auto-discover new Channels auto_discover 1Default Channel default_channel pear.php.netHTTP Proxy Server Address http_proxy <not set>PEAR server [DEPRECATED] master_server pear.php.netDefault Channel Mirror preferred_mirror pear.php.netRemote Configuration File remote_config <not set>PEAR executables directory bin_dir D:\xampp\phpPEAR documentation directory doc_dir D:\xampp\php\docsPHP extension directory ext_dir D:\xampp\php\extPEAR directory php_dir D:\xampp\php\pearPEAR Installer cache directory cache_dir D:\xampp\php\tmpPEAR configuration file cfg_dir D:\xampp\php\cfgdirectoryPEAR data directory data_dir D:\xampp\php\dataPEAR Installer download download_dir D:\xampp\php\tmpdirectoryPHP CLI/CGI binary php_bin D:\xampp\php\.\php.exephp.ini location php_ini <not set>--program-prefix passed to php_prefix <not set>PHP's ./configure--program-suffix passed to php_suffix <not set>PHP's ./configurePEAR Installer temp directory temp_dir D:\xampp\php\tmpPEAR test directory test_dir D:\xampp\php\testsPEAR www files directory www_dir D:\xampp\php\wwwCache TimeToLive cache_ttl 3600Preferred Package State preferred_state stableUnix file mask umask 0Debug Log Level verbose 1PEAR password (for password <not set>maintainers)Signature Handling Program sig_bin c:\gnupg\gpg.exeSignature Key Directory sig_keydir C:\Windows\pearkeysSignature Key Id sig_keyid <not set>Package Signature Type sig_type gpgPEAR username (for username <not set>maintainers)User Configuration File Filename C:\Windows\pear.iniSystem Configuration File Filename C:\Windows\pearsys.ini

The above is my pear configuration file for your reference only. Enter the following command to upgrade the pear version

pear upgrade pear

View the upgraded version

pear –V

PEAR Version: 1.9.4PHP Version: 5.3.5Zend Engine Version: 2.3.0Running on: Windows NT ARTHUR-PC 6.1 build 7600 (Unknow Windows version Ultimate Edition) i586

Upgrade PHPUnit to 3.6. The pear version is too low.

pear upgrade pear/PHPUnit

Information that failed to update

pear/PHPUnit is already installed and is the same as the released version 1.3.2 upgrade failed

Uninstall the current PHPUnit version first

pear uninstall pear/PHPUnit

Note: Set auto-add Channels

pear config-set auto_discover 1

Add necessary channels for PHPUnit

pear channel-discover components.ez.no pear channel-discover pear.phpunit.depear channel-discover pear.symfony-project.com

Install PHPUnit

pear install --alldeps phpunit/PHPUnit

View PHPUnit version

phpunit –V PHPUnit 3.6.3 by Sebastian Bergmann.

Add the pear path to your environment variables, such as D: \ xampp \ php. In this way, you can directly run the pear command.

Write your first test

cd /d D:\xampp\htdocs\dev142\tests

Create an index. php file

<?php//This is my first testclass MyFirstTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase{ public function testFirst(){ $stack = array(); $this-&gt;assertEquals(0,count($stack)); }}?>

Test your code
