PHPUnit: Testing with a Bite

Well hi there! This repository holds the code and script for the PHPUnit: Testing with a Bite course on KnpUniversity.

Setup

NOTE: Because this is an older tutorial, the code only works on PHP 7.3 and lower.

If you've just downloaded the code, congratulations!

To get it working, follow these steps:

Setup parameters.yml

First, make sure you have an app/config/parameters.yml file (you should). If you don't, copy app/config/parameters.yml.dist to get it.

Next, look at the configuration and make any adjustments you need (like database_password).

Download Composer dependencies

Make sure you have Composer installed and then run:

composer install

You may alternatively need to run php composer.phar install, depending on how you installed Composer.

Setup the Database

Again, make sure app/config/parameters.yml is setup for your computer. Then, create the database and the schema!

php bin/console doctrine:database:create

If you get an error that the database exists, that should be ok. But if you have problems, completely drop the database (doctrine:database:drop --force) and try again.

Start the built-in web server

You can use Nginx or Apache, but the built-in web server works great:

php bin/console server:run

Now check out the site at http://localhost:8000

Have fun!

(optional) Add bash alias for better DX

For better DX to avoid having to use ./vendor/bin/phpunit all the time create a bash alias:

alias phpunit=./vendor/bin/phpunit

From now on you will be able to run local PHPUnit from your project directory by executing phpunit command. Add alias command to your bash profile if you don't want to run it every time you enter a new terminal.

Have Ideas, Feedback or an Issue?

If you have suggestions or questions, please feel free to open an issue on this repository or comment on the course itself. We're watching both :).

Thanks!

And as always, thanks so much for your support and letting us do what we love!
