Short guide on how to setup PHPUnit properly for Yii framework projects
Raw
gistfile1.md

Quick start for Yii with PHPUnit

install PHPUnit

prepend with sudo on mac

pear install --alldeps --force phpunit/phpunit
pear install phpunit/PHPUnit_Selenium
pear install phpunit/phpunit_story
pear install phpunit/dbunit

Get Selenium server (was Selenium RC)

http://seleniumhq.org/download/ it's runt with; $ java -jar selenium-server-standalone-VERSION_NO.jar

Configure Yii

  • Update config/test.php OR create local test config file (if you work in a team). Might want to enable a test database there too. I added this to my tests/bootstrap.php to handle a local config.

      //use standard test config if local variant doesn't exist.
  if (!file_exists($config))
      $config=dirname(__FILE__).'/../config/test.php';

  • Update tests/WebTestCase.php similarly to use your local site for testing.

Now dive into TDD and Yii :)
