Plugin cakephp-codesniffer

CodeSniffer is used in the terminal and is a way to check that files follow code conventions. In our case, we follow the PSR-4 recommandations and CakePHP coding standards.

You can now add the plugin cakephp-codesniffer to the composer.json of your project like this:

php composer.phar require cakephp/cakephp-codesniffer
bin/phpcs --config-set installed_paths vendor/cakephp/cakephp-codesniffer

This will also add a symlink to phpcs in bin/ directory.

To use it, do this at the root of your website in your terminal : ./bin/phpcs --standard=CakePHP path/to/code/to/check

Example to check a plugin : ./bin/phpcs --standard=CakePHP plugins/PluginName

PhpUnit

PHPUnit, a member of the xUnit family of testing frameworks, provides an easy-to-use framework for testing and analyzing your PHP applications.

It is now installed in each project in dev mode Just add the package in your composer.json's require-dev

Usage : ./bin/phpunit Will launch every test defined in phpunit.xml.dist

Code Coverage

PHPUnit will generate a set of static HTML files containing the coverage results. You can generate coverage for a test case by doing the following:

./bin/phpunit --coverage-html webroot/coverage tests/TestCase/Model/Table/ArticlesTableTest

Go in to http://localhost/your_app/coverage to see the results

ApiGen

You can use directly ApiGen in your projects to generate a complete html website with your Api.
