3) Installing the PHP-QA-Tools Edition

As Symfony uses [Composer][3] to manage its dependencies, the recommended way to create a new project is to use it., _(*24)

If you don't have Composer yet, download it following the instructions on http://getcomposer.org/ or just run the following command:, _(*25)

curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Then, use the create-project command to generate a new Symfony application:, _(*26)

php composer.phar create-project tp/phpqatools-edition path/to/install 2.1.x-dev

Composer will install Symfony and all its dependencies under the path/to/install directory., _(*27)

Enjoy!, _(*28)
