Question

Current, I installed phpunit. i use OS win 10. I think i installed new version from https://phpunit.de/ (current version 5.6, beta 5.7). But when check version with command

Answer 1

Just download the latest version and replace the old one. It is provided from the phpunit homepage.

$ wget https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit.phar

$ chmod +x phpunit.phar

$ sudo mv phpunit.phar /usr/local/bin/phpunit

You are in the latest version. To check version you can use

$ phpunit --check-version

Answer 2

It looks like you have PHPUnit 3.7 installed globally and on your PATH. Either replace your global phpunit with the PHAR you downloaded or explicitly execute the latter.

Answer 3

If you have installed PHPUnit globally with the PHP Archive (PHAR) procedure, you can simply run:

phpunit --self-update

Note that:

The openssl extension is required for using the --self-update feature of the PHAR.

More info in the doc.

Hope this help

Answer 4

There are two different things update and upgrade. If you type

phpunit

it will show you all commands available. If you see in the end it shows

--self-update       Update PHPUnit to the latest version within the same
                    release series.

--self-upgrade      Upgrade PHPUnit to the latest version.

Try what you need.

Answer 5

You can download as per php version and install it as globally.

wget -O phpunit https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit-7.phar

chmod +x phpunit

To check version you can use.

./phpunit --version

To set phpUnit as globally you can use.

sudo mv phpunit /usr/local/bin/phpunit

To run and test phpunit you can use.

phpunit
