Running all PHPUnit tests for a project using Composer

Question

I have a set of PHP projects, some of which depend on others. All have PHPUnit tests. All are installable via Composer, and specify their dependencies using a composer.json file. Each project has a phpunit.xml.dist file in their root, which points to a bootsrap file.

Now I have this project Foo that has a number of direct dependencies and several indirect ones. For the CI of Foo, I'd like to run all its tests, and all those of its dependencies.

Is this somehow possible to do via Composer? If not, is there some standard-ish clean way of doing this?

Answer 1

You could try composer scripts

{
    "scripts": {
        "test": "phpunit"
    }
}

Or maybe create a makefile and then call that using composer

{
    "scripts": {
        "build-all": "make build-all"
    }
}
