PHP-Tricorder is a CLI utility that scans structure files created using phpDocumentor and offers suggestions on potential problems with your code along with testing strategy information.

Executing /path/to/php tricorder.php will give you some usage information.

Please read the file LICENSE included with this code for licensing details.

How To Use It

  • Install phpDocumentor using your preferred method
  • Use docblocks to describe the parameters and return types for your methods
  • To generate a structure.xml document for an entire directory recursively, use phpdoc parse -d . -t
  • To generate a structure.xml document for a specific file, use phpdoc parse -f /path/to.file -t
  • Install the dependencies using Composer /path/to/php composer.phar install
  • Process the structure.xml document using tricorder: /path/to/php tricorder.php /path/to/structure.xml

Tricorder will then give you some suggestions on things to look for when testing your classes. Here's some sample output:

chartjes@php-vm:~/php-tricorder$ php tricorder.php ../building-testable-applications/lib/IBL/structure.xml
