NAME

spec4php - cli runner

SYNOPSIS

spec4php <FILE>
spec4php <DIRECTORY>

DESCRIPTION

Spec4php runs the specified spec files and reports the results in the terminal. For information on how to create spec files please refer to spec4php(5).

SPEC FILES

The spec4php command expects input files to contain PHP code with describe and it blocks in it.

Giving a directory as argument, spec4php will run all the files ending with .spec.php or Spec.php it finds below that directory.

OPTIONS

The following options (switches) are supported.

-h, --help: Prints the usage help message and quits.
-v, --verbose: Enables verbose mode. Additional information will be printed.
--debug: Enables debug mode. Stack traces will be shown unfiltered.
--color=[auto|yes|no]: Tells Spec if it should use colors when printing messages. By default (if the option is not set) it will use the auto mode, which will try to detect if it's safe to use ansi color sequences.
-f regexp, --filter=regexp: Runs only the tests matching the given regular expression. You can specify this option multiple times to build complex expressions.
-g group, --group=group: Runs only the tests assigned to the given group or groups. Use commas to define multiple groups or specify this option multiple times.
--exclude-group=group: Do not run the tests assigned to the given group or groups. Use commas to define multiple groups or specify this option multiple times.
--list-group=group: Print a list of the available group names.
--format=format: The formatter to use to present the result of the tests. The default formatter is dots, the other supported formatter is story.
-s: An alias for --format story
-b, --beep: Turn on beep-on-failures, which will issue a beep sound for each failed test.
-d file, --dump file: Outputs the generated PHP code for a Spec file. If verbose mode is enabled it will print line numbers too.
