Cakephp
The CakePHP framework
CakePHP is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like Associative Data Mapping, Front Controller, and MVC. Our primary goal is to provide a structured framework that enables PHP users at all levels to rapidly develop robust web applications, without any loss to flexibility.
#Installing CakePHP via Composer
You can install CakePHP into your project using Composer. If you're starting a new project, we recommend using the app skeleton as a starting point. For existing applications you can run the following:
composer require cakephp/cakephp
For details on the (minimum/maximum) PHP version see version map.
#Running Tests
Assuming you have PHPUnit installed (composer install), you can run the tests for CakePHP by doing the following:
- Copy
phpunit.xml.disttophpunit.xml. - Add the relevant database credentials to your
phpunit.xmlif you want to run tests against a non-SQLite datasource. - Run
vendor/bin/phpunit.
