Commuting Compensation Calculator Application

The "Commuting Compensation Calculator Application" is a tool to calculate and create a downloadable csv file containing the commuting compensation of employees for each month from the start of current year using employee data from the mysql database.

Compensation Rules Used

Commuting by:

• Bike: €0.5/km with the exception of [5-10]km distance which is double the amount (€1.0/km)
• Bus or Train: €0.25/km
• Car: €0.10/km

Requirements

• PHP 5.3 or higher;
• MySQL 5.0 or higher;
• and the usual Symfony application requirements.

Installation

Download and install the application using Git and Composer:

 $ git clone https://github.com/Seldar/symfony2-examinations
 $ cd symfony2-examinations/
 $ composer install --no-interaction

Create a mysql database named symfony2. Then Execute employee.sql in symfony2 database.

Usage

If you have PHP 5.4 or higher, there is no need to configure a virtual host in your web server to access the application. Just use the built-in web server:

$ cd symfony2-examinations/
$ php bin/console server:run

This command will start a web server for the Symfony application. Now you can access the application in your browser at http://localhost:8000/en/commuting-allowance/getCSV. You can stop the built-in web server by pressing Ctrl + C while you're in the terminal.

You can run tests created for the CommutingController class by running phpunit.phar:

$ php bin/phpunit.phar
