Test Configuration#

Configuration of test cases is defined in a standard PHPUnit Configuration file. This allows specifying bootstrap script, timeouts, location of the test files, error handling and other PHPUnit framework options.

See writing a test case for more details.

Configuration Files#

Test Explorer (in the menu Test / Test Explorer) lists all the available test suites by looking in phpunit.xml and phpunit.xml.dist configuration files within all the opened projects.

By default, there should be a single phpunit.xml file in the root of the PHP project with the following text:

<phpunit
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://schema.phpunit.de/6.3/phpunit.xsd"
         backupGlobals="true"
         backupStaticAttributes="false">
  <testsuites>
    <testsuite name="My Test Suite">
      <directory>tests</directory>
    </testsuite>
  </testsuites>
</phpunit>

Customize the file according to the PHPUnit documentation.
