BDD-like PHPUnit snippet for Sublime Text

1-minute read

While I’m trying to figure out how to obtain the same result in PHPStorm I’ve created a Sublime Text snippet to have PHPUnit test methods read like this

/**
 * @test
 * it should do something
 */
public function it_should_do_something()
{
    $this->markTestIncomplete();
}

The reason is that I like phpspec test method naming convention, behaviour oriented, in place of the classic testSomething PHPUnit one.
I will update testify in a short time but right now here it is the snippet code:

<snippet>
<content><![CDATA[
/**
 * @test
 * it should ${1:do something}
 */
public function it_should_${1/\s/_/g}()
{
    \$this->markTestIncomplete();
}
]]></content>
    <tabTrigger>should</tabTrigger>
    <scope>source.php</scope>
</snippet>

what’s typed in the test doc block will be transformed in the underscore separated method name.
