PHPUnit - 'No tests executed' when using configuration file

Question

The Problem

To improve my quality of code, I\'ve decided to try to learn how to test my code using Unit Testing instead of my mediocre-at-best testing solutions.

Answer 1

On windows use the following command on terminal

.\vendor\bin\phpunit

that's if the command

phpunit

returns "No tests executed!"

while on Mac

./vendor/bin/phpunit

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Have you added a test suite to you phpunit.xml file?

<phpunit>
    <testsuite name="app1" >
        <directory>./</directory>
    </testsuite>
</phpunit>

You can add multiple directories in there.

Answer 3

If you're using @dataprovider make sure the visibility of its method is public that was my problem

Answer 4

A little bit on the side maybe, but if you are (like me) using Laravel in Vagrant, make sure you are running phpunit inside of the vagrant box and not on the "windows side". :)
