Docker Remote Interpreters | The PhpStorm Blog
January 9, 2024 - Let’s configure our PHPUnit test suite to run using this newly supplied Docker container. We need to tell PhpStorm which interpreter and how to find PHPUnit for this project, we can do that in the PHPUnit settings pane, found under Languages & Frameworks, PHP, PHPUnit. You may already have a configuration here (if you’ve previously been running the unit tests locally, for example), but we need to create a new configuration by clicking the [+] and selecting By Remote Interpreter and then picking the interpreter we configured earlier.

JetBrains - this is probably a common request as most people want to run their tests on the production environment described in their docker-composer.xml, not in php:cli image spun up by PhpStorm.
