Use PHPUnit on PhpStorm IDE

I've developed a simple test class usign PHPUnit on my PhpStorm IDE.

  • PHP version: 5.4.25
  • PHPUnit version 4.2.1
  • MAMP 3.0.2
  • PHPStorm 7.1

This is the configuration of my IDE:

And this is my Test class:

namespace test\controllers;


class AuthTest extends \PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {

    protected function setUp() {
        parent::setUp(); // TODO: Change the autogenerated stub
        echo "start";
    }

    protected function tearDown()
    {
        parent::tearDown(); // TODO: Change the autogenerated stub
        echo "end";
    }


    public function testProva() {
        $tot = 5;

        $this->assertEquals($tot, 5);
    }
}

EDIT:

This is the configuration of my test run:

enter image description here

When I Run the class (class name: AuthTest, file name: AuthTest.php) I obtain the following error: Process finished with exit code 255 But when I run the same class by command line phpunit path/test/folder/ it works fine.

What is wrong?

Solution

  • PhpStorm v7.x does not support PhpUnit 4.x (only 3.6 ..or maybe 3.7 MAX).

    PhpStorm uses special helper/wrapper script for integration purposes (so that IDE receives test progress/results in understandable format (much-much easier that parsing PHPUnit native output, which does not provide much details needed for IDE)). This wrapper in PhpStorm v7.x does not support PHPUnit v4.x.

    For PhpUnit 4.x support you should try v8 EAP build (or wait for v8 official release -- 1-2 months from now, approximately).
