Slice your PHPUnit test suite in chunks to run it in parallel.

CircleCI

Usage

Install phpunit-slicer using Composer:

composer require --dev wizaplace/phpunit-slicer

Instead of running your test suite with vendor/bin/phpunit, run phpunit-slicer instead:

vendor/bin/phpunit-slicer --slices 1/2

The --slices allows to define how many slices to use and which one to run. For example 1/2 means that the test suite will be split in 2, and only the first slice will be run.

PHPUnit-slicer is mainly useful for continuous integration: it allows to run a large test suite in parallel accross several jobs. To enable this, simply replace your single PHPUnit job with 2 (or more) jobs:

  • vendor/bin/phpunit-slicer --slices 1/2
  • vendor/bin/phpunit-slicer --slices 2/2
