Please document how to run the tests

[oliverklee]

I'd like to contribute, but have trouble getting the unit tests to run (so that I can contribute in a test-driven way). The test setup is a bit unlike what I'm used to from other projects. I propose adding a .github/CONTRIBUTING.md file that explains the basics needed for contributing PRs. Thanks! <3

While indeed having a CONTRIBUTING.md is probably a good idea, I'm also a bit confused as to where the issue with running the tests would be?

phive install && ./tools/phpunit

Alternatively, ant -p should have gotten you started - which, as far as I at least was concerned - isn't very uncommon?

[oliverklee]

Ah, I completely missed that PHIVE might also use PHIVE to install its tools. :-)

As far as Ant is concerned, this is the first PHP-based project which I've seen that uses Ant. So no, at least in my experience it's not so common. (I'm working mostly with Symfony and TYPO3.)

Funny, pretty much all my projects and as far as I know all of Sebastian Bergmann's use ANT. So at least in my little bubble, it's quite common ;-)
