On the master branch, only unit and functional tests are included. The performance tests require very large files and have been excluded.
If you just want to check that everything is working as expected, executing the tests of the master branch is enough.
If you want to run performance tests, you will need to checkout the perf-tests branch. Multiple test suites can then be run, depending on the expected output:
phpunit- runs the whole test suite (unit + functional + performance tests)phpunit --exclude-group perf-tests- only runs the unit and functional testsphpunit --group perf-tests- only runs the performance tests
For information, the performance tests take about 30 minutes to run (processing 1 million rows files is not a quick thing).
