Hi there,
I'm currently trying to set up PHPStorm 2.0 v103.99 to debug unit tests using PHPUnit. I can run all the tests fine, however when I run them in debug mode, I get a message informing me that 'Debug connection was not established', and it does not hit any of the break points.
I am using xdebug, which works fine when I am debugging in a browser, but cannot seem to connect when running the tests through the PHPStorm console.
Any help would be much appreciated, please let me know if I need to supply more information.
Thanks

Tom,

It is configuration of php installed on apache. The path to php.ini for CLI is usually something like '/etc/php5/cli/php.ini'. Please ensure that you check the proper configuration.

Also check 'Debugger' field value in PHP settings. It is should be 'Xdebug' selected.
