+This will compile and install the gRPC PHP extension into the standard PHP extension directory. You should be able to run the [unit tests](#unit-tests), with the PHP extension installed.
+
+To run tests with generated stub code from `.proto` files, you will need the `composer`, `protoc` and `protoc-gen-php` binaries additionally. See sections [below](#generated-code-tests).

+### Update php.ini

 Add this line to your `php.ini` file, e.g. `/etc/php5/cli/php.ini`

 ```sh
 extension=grpc.so
 ```

-Install Composer
+## Unit Tests
+
+You will need the source code to run tests
+
+```sh
+$ git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc.git
+$ cd grpc
+$ git pull --recurse-submodules && git submodule update --init --recursive
+```
+
+Run unit tests

 ```sh
 $ cd grpc/src/php
+$ ./bin/run_tests.sh
+```
+
+## Generated Code Tests
+
+### Composer
+
+You need to install `composer`, to pull in some runtime dependencies based on the `composer.json` file.
+
+```sh
 $ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
 $ sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
+
+$ cd grpc/src/php
 $ composer install
 ```

-## Unit Tests
+### Protobuf compiler

-Run unit tests
+You need the install the protobuf compiler, `protoc`, 3.0.0+.
+
+If you had compiled the gRPC C core library from source above, the `protoc` binary should have been installed as well. In the case it wasn't, you can run the following commands to install it.

 ```sh
-$ cd grpc/src/php
-$ ./bin/run_tests.sh
+$ cd grpc/third_party/protobuf
+$ sudo make install   # 'make' should have been run by core grpc
 ```

-## Generated Code Tests
+Or you can download a `protoc` binaries from [here](https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases).
+

-Install `protoc-gen-php`
+### PHP protobuf compiler
+
+You need to install `protoc-gen-php`, so that you can generate stub classes `.php` files from service definition `.proto` files.

 ```sh
-$ cd grpc/src/php/vendor/datto/protobuf-php
+$ cd grpc/src/php/vendor/datto/protobuf-php # if you had run `composer install` in the previous step
+
+OR
+
+$ git clone https://github.com/stanley-cheung/Protobuf-PHP # clone from github repo
+
 $ gem install rake ronn
 $ rake pear:package version=1.0
 $ sudo pear install Protobuf-1.0.tgz
