How to config Bitbucket Pipelines for Symfony 4

June 5th, 2019

If you are working with the latest version of Symfony and you are using Bitbucket for your repository, you should be using the Pipelines feature.

Basically, Bitbucket Pipelines allows you to automate your tests and deployments. Every commit pushed to the repository will trigger automatically the scripts you have added to your pipelines.

The main problem to solve is that you need to setup a specific environment to run your test and to execute some scripts. For example, install dependencies using Composer, run PHPUnit tests with the PHP version you have in your production server, ...

I have created a Docker Image already uploaded to Docker Hub ready to use. You can see here the details.
