PRESENTATION
Developer and Customer Focused Tests
for
a LAMP Environment
by
Ward Cunningham
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Director of Committer Community Development
The Eclipse Foundation
Agile methods such as Extreme Programming (XP) rely on a
readily repeated suite of tests to give developers the courage
they need to continuously improve their code.
In this talk XP pioneer Ward Cunningham will dissect the agile
testing strategy and framework that the Portland Eclipse
Foundation team created while developing the recently deployed
MyFoundation Portal, a LAMP application.
The testing framework is notable for two reasons. One, it has
been deployed into production with the application and serves
as "open and transparent" documentation. Two, it integrates
with the application in such a way to make it both simple and
powerful at the small expense of some test coverage.
Part 3 of Ward's blog series on the portal includes more
explanation, screen shots, and a link to the live test site.
