Cannot run single test with data provider in PHPUnit

Question

I\'ve got a problem when using command line to run tests: if I run phpunit like this:

phpunit -–no-configuration -–filter testAdd DataTest DataProviderTest.php         


        

Answer 1

The regex in the answer no longer seems to work (at least not in 4.0.12).

It looks like --filter doesn't like the space, and gives the following error:

Fatal error: "preg_match(): Compilation failed: missing ) at offset

This is fixed by replacing the space with \s The quotes also need to get removed (or else the \ needs to be \)

phpunit --filter /::testAdd(\s.*)?$/ DataTest DataProviderTest.php
