Sebastian Bergmann (28.Sep.2009)
Talk at CodeWorks 2009 (Atlanta) (English - US)
When things go wrong in software projects, the team has to work overtime and cancel vacations. More often than not, deadlines andquality goals are missed nevertheless. Because software usually lives longer than originally planned, the real problems crop up whenchanges and extensions become necessary later on.In this workshop, Sebastian Bergmann, creator of PHPUnit, imparts comprehensiveknowledge and experience about testing and quality assurance in PHP projects.The audience will learn about using PHPUnit forunit testing the business logic components and Selenium for end-to-end testing of modern web applications.But testing is only oneaspect of controlling the quality of a software project. This is why the measuring of software quality by means of software metricsas well as establishing successful development processes and methods such as continuous integration are also discussed in this workshop.

This session introduced me not only to new static analysis tools to consider, but highlighted features in PHPUnit that I wasn't aware of but are very relevant to the work I'm currently focused on. This content was very interesting and timely for me.

Was very happy with this workshop. I had been using custom build-once manual evaluation testing scripts in the past, but am convinced PHPUnit is the way to go.
Installed PHPUnit today and will start transitioning my current projects to start using these testing scripts now. If for no other reason I think PHPUnit is worth it to have the code coverage statistics in phploc to let me know what I'm NOT currently testing.
These two tutorial workshops (this and the code review) were much more valuable to me than the several shorter ones from the main conference day.

This presentation combined with the PHP Code Review tutorial made for a great body of introductory knowledge into Quality Controlling one's projects.
