What Unit-Testing Frameworks are people using in the CF community? As others have said, MXUnit now rules the roost. It has an active team, an active mailing list (on Google Groups - where most frameworks live these days) and it's very sophisticated and feature-rich. cfSpec is a great BDD framework (as opposed to TDD). There are a few mocking frameworks out there too but MXUnit and cfSpec are both including mocking so there's not much interest in separate frameworks. ColdBox users have built-in support for testing for MXUnit and mocking within the CB framework itself. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies US -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive. -- Margaret Atwood ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Unit Testing Frameworks
From what I can see, the last thing posted on the CFCUnit website is dated 2006. Is CFCUnit still a going concern? What Unit-Testing Frameworks are people using in the CF community?

Re: Unit Testing Frameworks
Yes, CFCUnit has not been update for some time. CFer's have moved to unit testing frameworks such as MXUnit ( http://www.mxunit.org/) for back end testing and have started to use cfSpec (http://github.com/adelphus/cfspec/) for behavioral front end testing. I'm sure there are others out there, but these are now mentioned more often in the community. -Pat (patweb99) On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 9:15 PM, Judith Dinowitz jdino...@houseoffusion.com wrote: From what I can see, the last thing posted on the CFCUnit website is dated 2006.

Re: Unit Testing Frameworks
MXUnit pretty much superceded CFCUnit. CFCUnit is still viable, of course, but MXUnit is certainly seeing a lot more activity, and is pretty much the de facto standard for unit testing of CF apps. cheers, barneyb On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 9:15 PM, Judith Dinowitz jdino...@houseoffusion.com wrote: From what I can see, the last thing posted on the CFCUnit website is dated 2006.
