phploc: Count PHPUnit test case classes and test methods.
$ phploc ${path-to-directory} --count-tests
try on your machine

This command is used to analyze a PHP project and provide various metrics about the codebase.

Here is the breakdown of the command:

  • phploc: This is the command to execute the PHPLOC tool.
  • ${path-to-directory}: This should be replaced with the actual path to the directory or project you want to analyze. It specifies the target directory for the analysis.
  • --count-tests: This flag tells PHPLOC to include the analysis of test code in its metrics. By default, PHPLOC only counts production code, but with this flag, it will also include test code in its calculations.

When you run this command, PHPLOC will analyze the specified directory and provide metrics such as the number of classes, interfaces, traits, lines of code, lines of comments, and other useful information about the codebase. By including the --count-tests flag, the analysis will include the test code in these metrics as well.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
