Setting up development environment

run-tests.php is a PHP script so all you really need is a fairly standard development environment. This is a brief set of instructions.

• Download the PHP 5.4.0 source tar
• Extract into /the/place/you/keep/php/souce
• cd /the/place/you/keep/phpsource/
• configure --with-zlib --enable-pcntl
• make
• sudo make install

This gets a recent copy of PHP installed in /usr/local

Now you need:

• PHPUnit (which you should be able to install using pear)
• Phing (likewise)
• Doxygen (download, extract, configure, make sudo make install)
• Xdebug 2.2.0 (download and build). Follow the Xdebug instructions carefully - make sure that your php.ini is poining to the right xdebug.so.

Check that you have all this using php -m.

git clone http://git.php.net/repository/phpruntests.git

Under the phpruntests directory you will find all the source code under the directory /src and all of the unit tests under the directory /tests. The main program is called run-tests.php. The main program is located in the directory /src.
