PHP_CodeCoverage is a library that provides collection, processing, and rendering functionality for PHP code coverage information.
PHP 5.6 is required but using the latest version of PHP is highly recommended.
Xdebug is the only source of raw code coverage data supported for PHP 5. Version 2.2.1 of Xdebug is required but using the latest version is highly recommended.
Version 2.4.0 (or later) of Xdebug as well as phpdbg are supported sources of raw code coverage data for PHP 7.
A version of HHVM that implements the Xdebug API for code coverage (xdebug_*_code_coverage()) is required.
You can add this library as a local, per-project dependency to your project using Composer:
composer require phpunit/php-code-coverage
If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency:
composer require --dev phpunit/php-code-coverage
<?php
$coverage = new \SebastianBergmann\CodeCoverage\CodeCoverage;

$coverage->stop();
$writer = new \SebastianBergmann\CodeCoverage\Report\Clover;
$writer->process($coverage, '/tmp/clover.xml');
$writer = new \SebastianBergmann\CodeCoverage\Report\Html\Facade;
