Is there script for testing any kind of a php file?

[sidhx]

hi

I wanted to develop php unit file testing. Like showing each php file with "test" link (or button).When we click the "test" associated to that file it dispay the output. plz help

I may be missing something but I would say no.
The reason being it is a pointless exercise
unless all your php code,html DAL etc is bundled into one file.

And that is poor programming style

OK but is it possible to get xml content from the php file which has xml inside the php, while testing

[code green]

This again sounds like poor practice.
Why would you have XML buried in PHP code?
If you are reading or writing XML then ideally you should be using DOM or simpleXML.
OK, I can understand writing XML as a string, interspersed with variables.
Are you are tring to test this for valid XML?

Are you are tring to test this for valid XML?
yes

It may be more useful if you give us an example of what you are trying to accomplish. There is no general way to "just test" in PHP.

I would write the string variable to a text file using file_put_contents(), saving the file as .xml.
Then the operation becomes validating an XML for being well formed.

i would like check the php files by sending details to respective file like post and get method type with only one click associated to that files.

ex:
authenticate.php----TEST
gameStatus.php----TEST and soon

You can utilize cURL to simulate POST and GET requests.
