PHPCodeSniffer HTML Report?
Question by Annie B.
Does PHPCodeSniffer generates HTML Report?
If not? How?
Currently, I can run PHPCodeSniffer but it only produce XML file and displays result in the terminal.
How can i make produce HTML Report like the coverage and unit test report in phpunit.
Currently i use PHPCheckStyle since it produces html report, but i want also to try PHPCodeSniffer to know which is best.
Thanks

Another solution (but maybe not the simplest one) is to use a continuous integration system that provides PHP code sniffer integration.
For example, phpUnderControl provides a nice interface to see the report.

HTML Reporting is not provided yet. However there is a workaround to get the job done.
You can export the report to XML and read the data with DOM Parser and generate an HTML version on your own. Here is a quick tutorial to get you started.
