Come join us as Michael Moussa talks about Unit Testing PHP Applications.
Testing your code before deploying to Production is important – so why rely on slow, limited, manual testing? Automated tests can help protect you from introducing bugs into your applications and provide valuable feedback on application design. They’re quick, they run whenever you want them to, and they don’t forget about those few lines of code you wrote months ago.
In this talk, you’ll learn how to set up PHPUnit and configure it to run tests against your project. We’ll write some tests together and go over more intermediate topics, such as mocking dependencies and making your code more “testable.” Finally, we’ll see which tools are available for us to help determine how much of our code is tested and to assess its overall quality. After this talk, you’ll know everything you need to begin testing your PHP applications.
Michael Moussa is web developer with over 14 years experience building PHP applications.
