I am following instructions in file, which was created automatically when creating advanced demo yii application:
„C:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced\tests\README.md“
They say " 1. Install Codeception if it’s not yet installed:"
I run: c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced>composer global require "codeception/codeception=2.0." "codeception/specify=" "codeception/verify=*"
They say “If you’ve never used Composer for global packages run composer global status.”
I run: c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced>composer global status
They say :Then add <directory>/vendor/bin to you PATH environment variable. Now you’re able to use codecept from command line globally."
I found directory with codecept using:
c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced>cd c:\
c:\>dir codecep* /s
In my case this outputted directory „C:\Users\Gintare\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin“
which i added to System->Advanced System Settings → Environmental variables → PATH
But if i try codecept or bin\codecept command from command line, it is not recognised – the message is „The system cannot find the path specified.“ I have tried the following commands:
c:\…\advanced>bin\codecept
c:\…\advanced>bin/codecept
c:\…\advanced>codecept
The phpunit or bin\phpunit is also not recognised as a command, athough it is on the path
C:\Users\Gintare\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin
contains codecept and phpunit.
I have checked composer.json file in directory:
C:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced. It had no phpunit and codeception
"require-dev": {
"yiisoft/yii2-codeception": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-debug": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-gii": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-faker": "*"
},
Thus i have added these lines to the file:
"require-dev": {
"yiisoft/yii2-codeception": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-debug": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-gii": "*",
"yiisoft/yii2-faker": "*",
"phpunit/phpunit":"4.5.*",
"codeception/codeception:*",
"codeception/specify": "*",
"codeception/verify": "*"
},
and run from command line composer update:
c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced>composer update
It loaded and installed dozens of libraries including: "phpunit/phpunit":"4.5.", "codeception/codeception:","codeception/specify": "", "codeception/verify": ""
But command bin\codecept and bin\phpunit is not working from command line:
c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\apache2\htdocs\TamasCovacsYii\advanced>bin\codecept
The system cannot find the path specified.
If I check folder
C:\Users\Gintare\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin
I see four files, codecept, codecept.bat, phpunit, phpunit.bat
I also have symfony project with analogous composer.json file. If i change cmd to that project folder i can run phpunit:
c:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.4.38-0\sym_prog\myproject>bin\phpunit
PHPUnit 4.5.0 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors…
About phpunit see:

About codeception see:

Why codecept and phpunit is not working from yii project folder? Where is my mistake?
