How to setup Codeception with remote code coverage?

Question

I have two repo on my machine
1. API
2. Codeception repo that tests API

In API repo I have added codeception+c3

"require-dev": {
    "codeception/codeception": "2.*",
    "codeception/c3": "2.*",

I've also included c3.php inside index.php, but when trying to test it with --coverage I have this error

[PHPUnit_Framework_Exception] file_get_contents(http://local.api.codeception.com/c3/report/clear): fai led to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

Is there ANY online example of remote codecoverage with Codeception?

have you tried to display the error which happens in c3? there is a constant you can set with "define('C3_CODECOVERAGE_ERROR_LOG_FILE', '/path/to/c3_error.log');" before including c3.php (@see github.com/Codeception/c3#setup) Within the file you should see the error why there is a 500 result. — NiMeDia

Here's my configuration for remote codecoverage with Codeception (Project on GitHub).

Steps for running up remote codecoverage collection

1. Make sure that xdebug installed and enabled.

2. Configure codeception.

File codeception.yml (GitHub):

coverage:
  enabled: true
  c3_url: 'http://%SERVICE_HOST%/index-test.php/'
  include:
  - web/*
  - config/*
  - src/*

3. Enable coverage for the suits you need.

File acceptance.suite.yml (GitHub):

coverage:
  remote: true

In my example its enabled only for acceptance tests.

4. Include c3.php file in your application bootstrap.

Application bootstrap file index-test.php (GitHub):

// Start the remote code coverage collection.
require_once __DIR__.'/../c3.php';

// autoloader, application running and etc
// ...

5. Run coverage.

$ vendor/bin/codecept run --coverage --coverage-html

By default you can find your reports in tests/_output directory.

Possible issues

1. Output directory not writable (tests/_output).

$ chmod 777 tests/_output

2. Remote codecoverage not printed in console.

It should not be printed. From documentation:

coverage:
  remote: true
In this case remote Code Coverage results won’t be merged with local ones, if this option is enabled. Merging is possible only in case a remote and local files have the same path. But in case of running tests on a remote server we are not sure of it.

3. Some other error.

Try to enable debug. If debug enabled, you can get your report or clear it.

curl -o codecoverage.tar "http://localhost:8080/index-test.php/c3/report/html"

End

Sometimes it's not a trivial task. So I hope this will help!
