Installation
For Linux
1. Open a session and change to the document root of your local webserver.
$ cd /var/www/html/
/var/www/html$
2. Clone the current joomla repository into your webserver root folder

...
Are you new with github? Here you can find informations about setting it up: https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git/ If you get an error you can try git clone https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms.git instead of git clone git@github.com:joomla/joomla-cms.git
3. Change to the directory joomla-cms and make sure that you are on the 4.0-dev branch
Change to the directory:
/var/www/html$ cd joomla-cms
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$
Make sure you are on the correct branch:
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ git branch
* staging
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ git fetch origin 4.0-dev:4.0-dev
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ git checkout 4.0-dev
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ git branch
* 4.0-dev
staging
4. Your joomla-cms folder should contain this files:
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ ls
acceptance.suite.yml cli Gemfile jenkins-phpunit.xml modules RoboFile.php web.config.txt
administrator codeception.yml htaccess.txt karma.conf.js package.json robots.txt.dist
appveyor-phpunit.xml components images language phpunit.xml.dist scss-lint.yml
build composer.json includes layouts plugins templates
build.js composer.lock index.php libraries README.md tests
build.xml dev installation LICENSE.txt README.txt tmp
cache drone-package.json Jenkinsfile media RoboFile.dist.ini travisci-phpunit.xml
5. Optional: Have a look into composer.json for information what software you will install via composer.
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ cat composer.json

Now you see this repo in the folder /var/www/html/joomla-cms/libraries/vendor/joomla/test-system
7. Optional: Prepare the database
If you use MySQL or PostgreSQL as database and your user has create database privileges the Database is automatically created by the Joomla installer. But the safest way is to create the database before running Joomla's web installer.
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ mysql -u root -p
mysql> create database test_joomla;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0,00 sec)
mysql> quit;
Bye
8. Update the file acceptance.suite.yml to your needs.
Important are the options
- url in the section JoomlaBrowser and Helper\Acceptance,
- database name and
- database user.
- database password.
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ cat acceptance.suite.yml
class_name: AcceptanceTester
modules:
enabled:
- Asserts
- JoomlaBrowser
- Helper\Acceptance
config:
JoomlaBrowser:
url: 'http://localhost/joomla-cms/test-install' # the url that points to the joomla installation at /tests/system/joomla-cms
browser: chrome
window_size: 1280x1024
username: 'admin' # UserName for the Administrator
password: 'admin' # Password for the Administrator
database host: 'localhost' # place where the Application is Hosted #server Address
database user: 'root' # MySQL Server user ID, usually root
database password: 'YOURDBPASSWORD' # MySQL Server password, usually empty or root
database name: 'test_joomla' # DB Name, at the Server
database type: 'mysqli' # type in lowercase one of the options: MySQL\MySQLi\PDO
database prefix: 'jos_' # DB Prefix for tables
install sample data: 'no' # Do you want to Download the Sample Data Along with Joomla Installation, then keep it Yes
sample data: 'Default English (GB) Sample Data' # Default Sample Data
admin email: 'admin@mydomain.com' # email Id of the Admin
language: 'English (United Kingdom)' # Language in which you want the Application to be Installed
Helper\Acceptance:
url: 'http://localhost/joomla-cms/test-install' # the url that points to the joomla installation at /tests/system/joomla-cms - we need it twice here
MicrosoftEdgeInsiders: false # set this to true, if you are on Windows Insiders
error_level: "E_ALL & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED"
9. Copy the file acceptance.suite.yml to this repo.
Currently we need the configuation file twice!
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ cp acceptance.suite.yml ./libraries/vendor/joomla/test-system/src
10. Optional: Create and edit the file RoboFile.ini.
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ cat RoboFile.ini
; If you want to setup your test website (document root) in a different folder, you can do that here.
; You can also set an absolute path, i.e. /path/to/my/cms/folder
cmsPath = test-install
; (Linux / Mac only) If you want to set a different owner for the CMS root folder, you can set it here.
localUser =
11. Optional: Set use owner of the project to your user.
Change the username/usergroup of the files by traveling the directories recursively. This is made possible by the ‘-R’ option.
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$sudo chown -R username:usergroup /var/www/html/joomla-cms
Running - Ready! Run the first tests
For Linux
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ libraries/vendor/bin/robo run:tests➜ Running tests
[Filesystem\DeleteDir] Deleted test-install...
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./media to test-install/media
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./nbproject to test-install/nbproject
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./images to test-install/images
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./libraries to test-install/libraries
...
Now a browser window opens and you can see the tests running in it.
If you get an error like this
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ libraries/vendor/bin/robo run:tests
➜ Running tests
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./media to test-install/media
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./nbproject to test-install/nbproject
[Filesystem\CopyDir] Copied from ./images to test-install/images
[error] Failed to copy "./libraries/vendor/consolidation/robo/scenarios/symfony2/tests" because file does not exist.
you have to delete two files:
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ rm ./libraries/vendor/consolidation/robo/scenarios/symfony2/tests
/var/www/html/joomla-cms$ rm ./libraries/vendor/consolidation/robo/scenarios/symfony4/tests
The tests use Codeception Testing Framework, if you want to know more about the technology used for testing please check: Testing Joomla Extensions with Codeception.
