I am having a hard time trying making PHPUnit work. My Directory is for php is C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3 Now, I read PHPUnit does not work without PEAR, so I got the go-pear.phar file and placed it in C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3/PEAR/ ran the go-pear.phar file and installed in on the system. third, I installed PHPUnit using Git Bash and put it in C:/wamp/www/local/unit-testing/ (Not sure if the directories are correct)

Now, I created a simple UserTest file

<?php require_once "phpunit/PHPUnit/Autoload.php"; require_once "User.php"; class UserTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { protected $user; // test the talk method protected function setUp() { $this->user = new User(); $this->user->setName("Tom"); } protected function tearDown() { unset($this->user); } public function testTalk() { $expected = "Hello world!"; $actual = $this->user->talk(); $this->assertEquals($expected, $actual); } }

And tried to require this file and run it from the command line in Windows. But, due to lack of instructions on where this files should exactly be, I can't seem to run it.

As of now the problem is command line does not recognize the PEAR command. Even though, I had run PEAR_ENV.reg file to add PATH variables to the file.

secondly, I am not sure where exactly PEAR & PHPUnit should be installed in my current structure. I keep all my php pages/project in C:/wamp/www/local/<-- I need to test files in this directory.

  • If I were you, I'd install Linux as a development evnironment (e.g. as a secondary system), then type few command lines to install pear, pecl, phpunit and all other tools. This would probably take much less time than fighting with Windows. Commented Aug 2, 2013 at 14:04

The PHPUnit batch file should be in your path. Then running PHPUnit from the command line would be done in a shell, with the current directory being where you have installed everything, and it assumes that your User.php file is there as well.

I sue a bootstrap.php file to run from my source code directory.

<?php /** * This file is used to configure the basic environment for testing in PHPUnit. */ // PHP and Web server settings error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); date_default_timezone_set("America/Toronto"); // Set the default timezone $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = 'http://xxx'; // Set Web Server name // Process the Include Path to allow the additional applications to be set. $IncludePaths = explode( PATH_SEPARATOR, get_include_path() ); $NewIncludePaths = array_merge( $IncludePaths, array(dirname(__FILE__) )); set_include_path( implode( PATH_SEPARATOR, array_unique($NewIncludePaths))); // Update Include Path //define('PHPUNIT_RUNNING', 1); // Indicate to the code that Automated Testing is running. ?>

I was able to follow the PEAR Installation Instructions for PHPUnit and get things up and running once the directory where PHPUnit.bat existed was in my DOS Path.
