Execute PHPUnit Testcases from PHPStorm using Lando - docker

Question

I've successfully configured the PHPStorm with the Docker containers served by Lando. Still, when I'm trying to execute the test, for instance, the core/modules/system/tests/src/Functional/System/HtaccessTest.php it's throwing me the following error:
Testing started at 1:00 AM ...

I made a wild guess the issue could have been with the database connection, hence I've tried with all the following options i.e.:
mysql://drupal8:drupal8#database:3306/drupal8
mysql://drupal8:drupal8#database/drupal8
mysql://drupal8:drupal8#localhost:32860/drupal8
<!-- 32860 is nothing but the port for external_connection. -->
<php>
<!-- Set error reporting to E_ALL. -->
<ini name="error_reporting" value="32767"/>
<!-- Do not limit the amount of memory tests take to run. -->
<ini name="memory_limit" value="-1"/>
<!-- Example SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL value: http://localhost -->
<env name="SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL" value="http://my-lando-app.lndo.site/"/>
<!-- Example SIMPLETEST_DB value: mysql://username:password#localhost/databasename#table_prefix -->
<env name="SIMPLETEST_DB" value="mysql://drupal8:drupal8#database:3306/drupal8"/>
<!-- Example BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY value: /path/to/webroot/sites/simpletest/browser_output -->
<env name="BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY" value="/app/sites/simpletest/browser_output"/>
<!-- To have browsertest output use an alternative base URL. For example if
SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL is an internal DDEV URL, you can set this to the
external DDev URL so you can follow the links directly.

<!-- To disable deprecation testing completely uncomment the next line. -->
<!-- <env name="SYMFONY_DEPRECATIONS_HELPER" value="disabled"/> -->

I'm also attaching the output of my lando info command, just in case if it's helpful:

Answer 1

You need to run
$ docker network ls
Then copy the "network id" for the "appserver".
Now, lets update your PHPStorm settings. Go to "Languages > PHP > Test Frameworks"
Then click the folder icon next to the "Docker Container" definition.
Now, change the Network Mode to your network id that you copied at the beginning.
