Recently i started using YII Framework, its so amazing. While using unit tests i found some issues and wasted a lot of time for tuning it. Here is my observations which worked at the end on WINDOWS machine -
ASSUMPTIONS -
a) you have pear installed
b) PHP xdebug installed [pls follow my other post http://usemytips.blogspot.it/2012/05/php-xdebug-installation-simplest-method.html ]
Lets start the magic -
STEP 1 --------------------------------
UPDATE PEAR - using your command prompt update PEAR
cmd> pear channel-update pear.php.net
cmd> pear list-upgrade
now for all upgrades listed above follow the upgrades by using command
cmd> pear install -f pear.php.net/XXXX [where XXXX is upgrade name listed from above command for example if pear upgrade is needed the command will become
cmd> pear install -f pear.php.net/PEAR
STEP 2 --------------------------------
UPDATE/INSTALL PHPUNIT - using your command prompt update/install phpunit
[UPGRADE]
cmd> pear channel-update pear.phpunit.de
cmd> pear list-upgrade
[INSTALL]
cmd> pear install -f pear.phpunit.de /PHPUnit
OK, now you have installed phpunit, updated Pear libs, and hopefully x-debug working well. All are PHP version dependent so make sure that they are compatible.
STEP 3 ------check your PHP.ini for include_path, it must have the pear/phpunit pointers in it. like
include_path="C:\php;c:\php\pear;C:\php\pear\phpunit"
STEP 3 ---------------------YII integration-----------
make sure that your /protected/tests/bootstrap.php has all file pointers set to locate yiii.php. from your command prompt locate the tests folder -
cmd > cd C:\YOUR YII ROOT\YOUR WEB APP\protected\tests [ENTER]
C:\YOUR YII ROOT\YOUR WEB APP\protected\tests> php unit/DbTest.php [ENTER]
remember php bold and large is for php command [location of php.exe]. If someone have different directory structure installation it can be
C:\YOUR YII ROOT\YOUR WEB APP\protected\tests> YOURDRIVE\PHP EXEPATH unit\DbTest.php
[NOTE - If you get error that php is not a suffix for php.exe just run a command in php
CMD>pear config-set php_suffix .exe

a) you have pear installed
