I am struggling to run a single test method named testSaveAndDrop
in the file escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php
with phpunit
. I tried the following combinations:
phpunit EscalationGroupTest escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php --filter=escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php::testSaveAndDrop
phpunit EscalationGroupTest escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php --filter=EscalationGroupTest.php::testSaveAndDrop
phpunit EscalationGroupTest escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php --filter=EscalationGroupTest::testSaveAndDrop
phpunit EscalationGroupTest escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php --filter=testSaveAndDrop
In each case all test methode in the file escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php
are executed. How to select just ONE method instead?
The name of the class is EscalationGroupTest
and the version of phpunit
is 3.2.8.
The reason your tests are all being run is that you have the --filter
flag after the file name. PHPUnit is not reading the options at all and so is running all the test cases.
From the help screen:
Usage: phpunit [options] UnitTest [UnitTest.php]
phpunit [options] <directory>
So move the --filter
argument before the test file that you want as mentioned in @Alex and
@Ferid Mövsümov answers. And you should only have the test that you want run.
If you're using an XML configuration file, you can add the following inside the phpunit
tag:
<groups>
<include>
<group>nameToInclude</group>
</include>
<exclude>
<group>nameToExclude</group>
</exclude>
</groups>
See https://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/appendixes.configuration.html
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'Your method name'
Example with custom method name.
/** @test //Initilize this for custom method name, without test keyword
*
* Test case For Dashboard When User Not logged In it will redirect To login page
*/
public function only_logged_in_user_see_dashboard()
{
$response = $this->get('/dashboard')
->assertRedirect('/login');
}
Example with test keyword
/**
* A basic test example.
*
* @return void
*/
public function testBasicTest()
{
$this->assertTrue(true);
}
If you're in netbeans you can right click in the test method and click "Run Focused Test Method".
Here's the more generic answer:
If you are sure the method name is unique you can only filter by method name (this works for me)
phpunit --filter {TestMethodName}
However it is safer to specify the file path/reference as well
phpunit --filter {TestMethodName} {FilePath}
Example:
phpunit --filter testSaveAndDrop reference/to/escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php
Quick note: I've noticed that if I have a function named testSave
and another function named testSaveAndDrop
using command phpunit --filter testSave
will also run testSaveAndDrop
and any other function that starts with testSave*
, it's weird!!
Following command will execute exactly testSaveAndDrop
test.
phpunit --filter '/::testSaveAndDrop$/' escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php
I am late to the party though. But as personal I hate to write the whole line.
Instead, I use the following shortcuts in the .bash_profile file make sure to source .bash_profile the file after adding any new alias else it won't work.
alias pa="php artisan"
alias pu="vendor/bin/phpunit"
alias puf="vendor/bin/phpunit --filter"
Usage:
puf function_name
puf filename
If you use Visual Studio Code you can use the following package to make your tests breeze.
Package Name: Better PHPUnit

You can then set the keybinding in the settings. I use Command + T binding in my MAC.
Now once you place your cursor on any function and then use the key binding then it will automatically run that single test.
If you need to run the whole class then place the cursor on top of the class and then use the key binding.
If you have any other things then always tweek with the Terminal
Happy Coding!
You must use --filter to run a single test method
php phpunit --filter "/::testMethod( .*)?$/" ClassTest ClassTest.php
The above filter will run testMethod alone.
for run phpunit test in laravel by many way ..
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter methodName className pathTofile.php
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'namespace\\directoryName\\className::methodName'
for test single class :
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter tests/Feature/UserTest.php
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'Tests\\Feature\\UserTest'
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'UserTest'
for test single method :
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter testExample
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'Tests\\Feature\\UserTest::testExample'
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter testExample UserTest tests/Feature/UserTest.php
for run tests from all class within namespace :
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter 'Tests\\Feature'
for more way run test see more
You Can try this i am able to run single Test cases
phpunit tests/{testfilename}
Eg:
phpunit tests/StackoverflowTest.php
If you want to run single Test cases in Laravel 5.5 Try
vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Feature/{testfilename}
vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Unit/{testfilename}
Eg:
vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Feature/ContactpageTest.php
vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Unit/ContactpageTest.php
So, something like this
phpunit --filter 'EscalationGroupTest::testSaveAndDrop' EscalationGroupTest escalation/EscalationGroupTest.php
Without =
and with '
I prefer marking the test in annotation as
/**
* @group failing
* Tests the api edit form
*/
public function testEditAction()
Then running it with
phpunit --group failing
No need to specify the full path in the command line, but you have to remember removing this before commit, not to clutter the code.
You may also specify several groups for a single test
/**
* @group failing
* @group bug2204
*/
public function testSomethingElse()
{
}
