PHP_Timer

Utility class for timing things, factored out of PHPUnit into a stand-alone component.

Installation

To add this package as a local, per-project dependency to your project, simply add a dependency on phpunit/php-timer to your project's composer.json file. Here is a minimal example of a composer.json file that just defines a dependency on PHP_Timer:

{
    "require": {
        "phpunit/php-timer": "~1.0"
    }
}

Usage

Basic Timing

PHP_Timer::start();

$timer->start();

// ...

$time = PHP_Timer::stop();
var_dump($time);

print PHP_Timer::secondsToTimeString($time);

The code above yields the output below:

double(1.0967254638672E-5)
0 ms
