Code completion for PHPUnit and Selenium in NetBeans

Question

How can I get NetBeans to provide code-completion for PHPUnit classes and methods?

I have already tried downloading from the PHPUnit GitHub project, but I didn\'t unders

Answer 1

Add the PHPUnit directory to NetBeans's PHP global include path. This will provide code completion in NetBeans for all projects.

1. Open Tools : Options
2. Switch to the PHP tab
3. Click Add Folder... next to the Global Include Path box
4. Enter /usr/share/php/PHPUnit or navigate to where PEAR installed PHPUnit's source files
5. Click Open
6. Click OK

Update: The file defining PHPUnit_Extensions_SeleniumTestCase is placed in the same directory as PHPUnit when you install PHPUnit Selenium.

For example, PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase is stored in

/usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Framework/TestCase.php

The Selenium test case is stored in

/usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Extensions/SeleniumTestCase.php

So by placing /usr/share/php/PHPUnit into the NetBeans include path, you pick up both. You have to install the extension first, of course.

pear install phpunit/PHPUnit_Selenium
