14. Running PHP_CodeSniffer
    phpcs /path/to/code –-standard=StandardName
    -p (show progress)
    -s (show source/errorcodes)
    -l (local, do not recurse into subdirs)
    -n (no warnings)
    -vvv (verbosity)
    -i (show installed standards)
    -h (help, shows lots more options)

15. Fixing errors
    phpcs /path/to/code –-standard=StandardName
    phpcbf /path/to/code –-standard=StandardName
    

    View Slide

16. Which Standard Will Be Used ?
    Command line
    .phpcs.xml
    phpcs.xml
    .phpcs.xml.dist
    phpcs.xml.dist
    --standard=Standard
    --standard=myrules.xml
    

    View Slide
