Whats the correct approach nowadays and why:
- To upload any needed external libs together with webapp in separate folder and than include them (where needed) using relative path, or,
- Reference remote path (usually some form of CDN),
The problem Im facing is I was tasked with writing a webapp: pretty small, simple set of p;ain php files with some functions benchmarking webserver they run at and displaying gathered info in a nice form (styles with scss and css). Sounds simple? Yes, nothing too complicated :)
Or so I thought. I mean, writing it is indeed simple, but the question is: whats more optimal way of doing whats in title and why?
The other problem (and why I mention PhpUnit) is that I want to just use some of the functions included within PHPUnit without the need of writing them by myself. I googled heavily, there are plenty of ways of including phpunit's tests within our project described, but none seems to work. Problem is that I use Visual Studio Code Insiders and I connect (via plugin named Remote SSH to remote server, where all the project files are and work from there. Now: I installed another extension (phpUnit) but within its configuration is setting called path to phpunit: and it has to be local (cannot be remote). When I try entering sth like IP-addr:/path/to/phpunit error pops up saying phpunit cannot be executed remotely. I even installed phpunit on the remote server (the one all the files are), also no running.....
How to make use of PHPUnit in this case?
