Try to make debugging of Kernel Tests easier

Created on 8 November 2015, over 8 years ago

Updated 23 June 2023, about 1 year ago

KernelTests run in isolation
Therefore phpunit creates some template file to keep global state on the child processes
By default the result of that template file is piped into a php process which makes it hard to debug

Store the result of the template in a file to improve debugability. PHPunit does this for Windows already. Include the Windows class under the generic name so it's always used.
Therefore file a PR against phpunit: https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/pull/1942

Have found that it is possible now to use xdebug in tests.

Seems also more support requesty

Could you point to an explanation about how to use xdebug for kernel tests. It still seems fairly involved /esoteric to me.

For me I got it working with ddev and phpstorm.

Would have to dig up the article but it came pretty out of the box working.
