I have following server variable inphpunit.xml:

<php>    <server name="APP_DEBUG" value="false"/></php>

Sometimes while developing, I want haveAPP_DEBUG enabled. What I usually do is add it into CLI command:

APP_DEBUG=true phpunit -c phpunit.xml

and in PHP:

$appDebug = $_SERVER['APP_DEBUG'] ?? $_ENV['APP_DEBUG'] ?? null;

But this does not set$_SERVER['APP_DEBUG] totrue, but leaves value from XML.

Is there any way to overwrite it from CLI?

don't use<server> for this. Use<env> and read it viagetenv().

APP_DEBUG=true phpunit sets an environment variable, which is visible viagetenv() /$_ENV, not$_SERVER.

Inphpunit.xml

<php>  <!-- default off -->  <env name="APP_DEBUG" value="false" force="false"/></php>

InPHP

$appDebug = getenv('APP_DEBUG') ?? ($_ENV['APP_DEBUG'] ?? null);// if you want a real boolean:$debug = filter_var($appDebug, FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN);

Now in CLI

APP_DEBUG=true vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.xml
