Use PHPUnit to detect any PHP Error/Warning/Exception

Question

I'd like to have PHPUnit fail when it encounters any PHP error, warning, or exception.

I'm seeing examples of the inverse, where

/**
 * @expectedException PHPUnit_Framework_Error_Warning
 */

is used when an error is expected. But instead, I'd like to exercise various code paths and guarantee that no errors, warnings, or exceptions were thrown.

For me, the question is not precise enough to answer but it feels like you're abusing PHPunit for something which doesn't sound like proper unit testing. Again, I may be wrong since I don't get enough information from your question. Maybe you could post some example (pseudo)code of what you would like to do. — markus

Any test that throws an uncaught exception or raises a warning or error is automatically marked with E (for error) by PHPUnit without your intervention. You only need to take measures like @expectedException when you want to count such errors as correct behavior.
