Symfony3：从命令行运行的phpunit返回“'phpunit'未被识别为内部或外部命令，可操作程序或批处理文件。”

Question

I want to proceed to unit testing on my Symfony3.2 project.

But 'phpunit' command is not working : when I run phpunit, it returns “'phpunit' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.”

Though, everything seems to be correctly set up. I searched the internet and didn't find anything. So, could somebody help me please ?

Answer 1

Follow the instructions from here:

https://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/installation.html

Answer 2

从Symfony 3.2开始的新方法是使用phpunit桥，如本博客文章中所述 。

Answer 3

Link only answers are not acceptable on Stackoverflow.

Here are the steps to install on Linux:

wget https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-6.1.phar
chmod +x phpunit-6.1.phar
sudo mv phpunit-6.1.phar /usr/local/bin/phpunit
phpunit --version

Verify the version is shown as 6.1.x and then from your Symfony directory you can now run:

phpunit

and your tests should run.

EDIT #2

Based on feedback from Cerad. Use these commands to install on windows:

1. Make a directory C:\\bin
2. Download https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-6.1.phar to C:\\bin
3. Rename the file phpunit.phar
4. Open a command prompt and enter the following:

---

cd C:\bin
echo @php "%~dp0phpunit.phar" %* > phpunit.cmd

Then you can enter:

phpunit --version

and you should see the version shown. Also you need to add C:\\bin to your environment PATH.
