Pass variable to PhpUnit

Question

I developed a set of test cases using phpunit used for testing both development site and the production site. The only difference is the domain name. How can I pass the doma

Answer 1

I ran into this too. One way you can do this with bash is to export the ENV variables you want to pass in and chain the phpunit call using ; like so:

#: HOST_NAME="my.host.com"; phpunit MyTestFile.php

That will create a HOST_NAME environment variable and then immediately call your unit test.

Then within your test script you can access the HOST_NAME variable using something like:

$host = getenv('HOST_NAME');
