connect app to php server on localhost

Question

how can i connect an android app (on my phone) to a php server (EasyPHP) that i am running on my machine (localhost). Are there any tutorials out there that document this. I need to test the app on an actual phone not an emulator (because the emulator contains bugs for certain activities). Any help would be great!

If you connect on your Android with WiFi, you will be in the same network, then you can access PHP server via your machine's IP address.

Server should be visible in public network - it has to have public IP.
