Use your own installed PHP under Mac OS System

Today in the installation of the Unit test Framework PHPUnit, the minimum version required for PHP is 5.6, because the PHP version that my MacBook comes with is 5.5.36 and cannot meet the installation conditions.

Looked at this URL: https://php-osx.liip.ch/#install, but can not download, the inside of a sentence caught my attention:

You can also adjust your PATH does include that directory, eg. Write into your ~/.profile file the following

Export Path=/usr/local/php5/bin: $PATH

So I created the. profile file in the ~/directory and added the PHP path to the mamp I installed,

Export Path=/applications/mamp/bin/php/php5.6.10/bin: $PATH

Then command source. profile, using php-v to display the PHP version of the current environment, and find that it has changed
