Herd on windows, phpStorm and tests... am I being dumb?

[mlewist]

Having just received a wiped machine back from asus I thought a good time to switch from Valet to Herd on my windows machine

I use PHPStorm, and have 2024.1 installed

It seems that within PHPStorm a couple of things just refuse to work since setting up with Herd. 1st it was MySql - worked okay via TablePlus, and I could connect to the DB from PHPStorm database tool, but trying to run artisan migrate just got connection refused each time. I installed MySql server as normal & removed from Herd, and it works okay

I also just can not get test tools to work now, which was never an issue when managing php versions manually, and is not an issue on my Mac with Herd.

So in PHPStorm I go PHP > Test Frameworks and configure normally. Set the PHPUnit library to use composer autoloader, then hit refresh... and it shows PHPUnit Version: Not Installed. I have tried on php 8.1 and 8.2 etc and even tried to switch to Pest but Pest had the same issue - shows as not installed on the PHPStorm settings, even though it is.

Does anyone know if there is there something I'm missing... ?

Reinstalling phpstorm did the trick... Guess I must have indeed been being dumb and messed something up during install, oops. What a terrific waste of an entire morning
