Debugging PHP with Xdebug

Talkat PHP UK Conference 2018 · 2018-02-14..02-16· [testing, developer-experience]
slides:none on file

Live demo shows Xdebug + PhpStorm actually stepping into code, inspecting types, setting conditional breakpoints, using watches and the console, and extending debugging to Postman and the CLI. Setup steps are shown and work after mapping and enabling remote autostart. Claim: routines that once take hours often fall to five–ten minutes. Examples prove surprising behaviors — huge-number division returning 1, string "false" evaluating true — and exception breakpoints and profiling are available.
