我如何通过运行Xdebug的PHPUnit加快测试速度

Question

I'm running test on PHPUnit using Xdebug for generating coverage and it is very slow.

I tried using PHPdbg but that leads to memory errors.

I was told that I can create a filter file, and that should help. Can anyone explain to me how that would work.

Answer 1

The documentation for PHPUnit has information on speeding up code coverage with Xdebug . For more background information I recommend this article .

That being said, I recommend having a look at PCOV for even faster code coverage data collection for PHP and PHPUnit.
