Parse error: syntax error , unexpected T_STRING, expecting '{' in D:\AppServ\www\test\tests\TestCase.php on line 3
php version 6

Answer 1

php version 6

You need to install a non-fictional version of php.
Because php 6 doesn't exist.

Answer 2

You need to install via composer. It will run additional scripts, execute composer install to pull up vendors, and create a config.
And you don’t need to go to public, your DOCUMENT_ROOT should point to it, and the entire project, including configs, should be above.

Answer 3

Copy this file from the repository
