 Firstly we define a static `$fixture_file`, this should point to a file that represents the data we want to test,
 represented as a YAML [Fixture](../fixtures). When our test is run, the data from this file will be loaded into a test 
 database and discarded at the end of the test.

 in our test methods (in this case we are testing if two values are equal). A test method can have more than one 
 assertion command, and if any one of these assertions fail, so will the test method.
 
+The example **phpunit.xml** file should be placed in the root folder of your project. PHPUnit 5.7 should be included by default, as a dev dependancy, in the **composer.json** file.

+## Caching
+
+Just like on web requests, SilverStripe caches metadata about the execution context. This cache can get stale, e.g. when you change YAML configuration or add certain types of PHP code. In order to flush the cache, the **first time** this test is run use the `flush=1` CLI parameter:
+
+```sh
+vendor/bin/phpunit app/tests/PageTest.php '' flush=1
+```
