Answer 1

When you install PHP-Unit in windows via composer, the global installation will create files in

C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Composer

To execute phpunit easily via command line you need to add path of phpunit.bat file in windows Environment Variables. For this:

1. Right click My Computer
2. Go to Properties -> Advance system settings and
3. Click Environment variables from the Advance tab.

Now add C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin to the windows PATH.

You can now run the phpunit from command. Note that you may need to restart your command prompt for the changes to take effect.
