Mission

Enable fast feedback cycles by storing test case results in a database and reorder tests on consecutive runs in the following order:

1. Failures and errors
2. So far unrecorded tests
3. Remaining tests by execution time in ascendant order (fastest first)

It’s probably not yet very stable but try it out.

What it does

Run a test suite once with errors

PHPUnit 3.7.28 by Sebastian Bergmann.

.............................................FSFS..............  63 / 280 ( 22%)
............................................................... 126 / 280 ( 45%)
............................................................... 189 / 280 ( 67%)
............................................................... 252 / 280 ( 90%)
.........................

Rerun that test suite and see how the previous failing tests have been sorted to the beginning of the test run:

Installation

add the following line to your projects' composer.json require-dev section.

"lstrojny/phpunit-clever-and-smart": "0.*"

Configuration

To play around with it, add this to your phpunit.xml(.dist)

    <listeners>
        <listener class="PHPUnit\Runner\CleverAndSmart\TestListener">
            <arguments>
                <object class="PHPUnit\Runner\CleverAndSmart\Storage\Sqlite3Storage"/>
            </arguments>
        </listener>
    </listeners>

you might alter the location of the sqlite storage file, by passing a path to the Sqlite3Storage class:

    <listeners>
        <listener class="PHPUnit\Runner\CleverAndSmart\TestListener">
            <arguments>
                <object class="PHPUnit\Runner\CleverAndSmart\Storage\Sqlite3Storage">
                    <arguments>
                        <string>/my/path/to/.phpunit-cas.db</string>
                    </arguments>
                </object>
            </arguments>
        </listener>
    </listeners>

Roadmap

• Test it with as many test suites as possible
• Stabilize
• Merge into PHPUnit core
