Development and Testing Tools

Plugins for PhpStorm are developed in Java using either edition of IntelliJ IDEA. The Community Edition of IntelliJ IDEA can be used for developing, but not testing, a PhpStorm plugin. Although IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition (with the PHP plugin) can be used for testing PhpStorm plugins, the recommended approach is to use PhpStorm for testing.

The PsiViewer plugin is also recommended.
