Testing PHP

Testing PHP – “The Perl community has embraced testing as a key component of a developer’s skillset, whereas the PHP community still relies heavily upon echo and manual testing with a browser. Since Geoff is a Perl guy, I’m a PHP guy, and we happen to be good friends, we decided to create a way to let PHP developers benefit from Perl’s mature testing tools and methodologies. Since Geoff is really a mod_perl guy and interested in all things Apache, he is a big fan of the Apache-Test framework. This seemed like a great tool to provide to PHP developers, so we proposed a talk about it. Once the talk was accepted, we had to deliver.”
