title: PHP: 'include', but don't run
body: <p>I have a test.php, where I run unit test cases. What I want is to <code>'include'</code> certain .php files, but when I do it, they get run. For example, I just need to access certain variables, functions from a .php file, but the whole .php file gets run. In my case, the .php is a huge file. Same thing happening with <code>'require'</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Would it be possible to access those .php methods, variables, functions without running them?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
