PHPunit, Getting function code coverage for a ZF controller action

Question

I'm using PHPunit to test our Zend Framework project and it works allright but i'm not getting coverage om my action methods in my controllers.

Although I get coverage in number off lines of code but I want to have coverage on the functions/methods.

I see a lot of examples on the internet where they just do it like this:

class IndexTest extends Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase
{
  public function testIndexAction() {
    $this->dispatch('/');
    $this->assertController('index');
    $this->assertAction('index');
    $this->assertXpath("//form[@action = '/index']");
  }
}

Which should work even if I look to this example from Jon:

http://www.zendcasts.com/unit-testing-with-the-zend-framework-with-zend_test-and-phpunit/2009/06/

http://code.google.com/p/zendcasts/source/browse/#svn/trunk/zc25-unit-testing

I'm doing it almost the exact way but it's not giving me any percentage of code coverage in functions, except for the init() function but I think that one is automaticly ignored by Zend Controller testcase.

I'm I doing something stupid or doesn't PHPUnit reconize it's calling this action? Using PHPUnit 3.5.14 and Zend Framework 1.11.x

No that's the point, code coverage is saying indexAction is not called and therefor not covered but I can't find out why it says it's not called while other lines of code inside that function are covered? — Kees Schepers

I figured out, it's a stupid mistake, because you need to cover all lines of a specific function in order to get 100% coverage for that method. Thanks anyway! — Kees Schepers

To get code coverage for a specific function from PHPunit you need to make sure every line of your function is called by your tests, so that every possible situation is taken care of and tested.
