Derick recently committed a patch that improves the performance of code coverage data collection in Xdebug . Xdebug 2.0.0: Workflow: ezcWorkflowDefinitionStorageXmlTest: .............................................. ...

WorkflowDatabaseTiein: ezcWorkflowDatabaseTieinDefinitionTest: .............. ezcWorkflowDatabaseTieinExecutionTest: .... WorkflowEventLogTiein: ezcWorkflowEventLogTieinListenerTest: ...................... Time: 02:15 OK (219 tests) Xdebug 2.0.1-dev: Workflow: ezcWorkflowDefinitionStorageXmlTest: .............................................. ezcWorkflowExecutionTest: ................................................. ezcWorkflowTest: ..................... ezcWorkflowNodeTest: ..................... ezcWorkflowConditionTest: ......................... ezcWorkflowVisitorVisualizationTest: ................. WorkflowDatabaseTiein: ezcWorkflowDatabaseTieinDefinitionTest: .............. ezcWorkflowDatabaseTieinExecutionTest: .... WorkflowEventLogTiein: ezcWorkflowEventLogTieinListenerTest: ...................... Time: 12 seconds OK (219 tests) This makes PHPUnit 's code coverage functionality so much more practical to use.

The videos from last weekend's Google Test Automation Conference are now online. As I could not be there (because my proposal and application got lost), I am really thankfull for being able to watch the conference's great presentations now. Let's hope that I can make it to India next year for GTAC08.

Last weekend saw the second installment of the Free and Open Source Software Conference (FrOSCon) in Sankt Augustin . The conference revolved around a rich schedule of talks, highlighting current topics in Free Software and Open Source . ... [More] Moreover, Open Source projects took the opportunity to organize their own meetings or even their own lineup of events. Just like last year, the PHP usergroups of Dortmund and Cologne / Bonn organized the PHP @ FrOSCon subconference with two full days of presentations. For me, Sankt Augustin is conveniently located near to my hometown of Siegburg and so FrOSCon started for me on Friday night with greeting Giuseppe, Markus, Roland, and Beat from MySQL in Sankt Augustin for dinner. After dinner we made a quick excursion to Siegburg for the annual town fair that took place here over the weekend. On Saturday, the first conference day, I attended a couple of talks (that I, apart from Arne's and Carola's presentation on XUL, don't remember). In the evening I attended the keysigning party before we headed out to Siegburg for dinner and another stroll over the town fair. On Sunday, the second day of the conference, Tobias Schlitt arrived in Sankt Augustin and together we took care of the server that runs phpunit.de . In the afternoon, I gave my presentation on PHPUnit which was well received. In the evening, we headed out to Cologne for dinner at a Brazilian restaurant were we enjoyed rodizio . Afterwards we walked to the Dom , took some pictures, and had some ice cream for dessert. [Less]

phpunit.de is back online. I think Tobias , on whose server the site runs, will share some information about what went wrong with the server while he was on vacation on his blog soon.

Version 3.2 of PHPUnit is shaping up nicely. In this blog posting I want to highlight the improvements to SeleniumTestCase , PHPUnit's extension for Selenium . Probably the most important improvement to SeleniumTestCase is the fact that ... [More] you can now run each test using a set of browsers instead of just one browser:   'Firefox on Linux' ,          'browser'   =>   '*firefox /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin' ,          'host'      =>   'my.linux.box' ,          'port'      =>   4444 ,          'timeout'   =>   30000 ,        ) ,        array (          'name'      =>   'Safari on MacOS X' ,          'browser'   =>   '*safari' ,          'host'      =>   'my.macosx.box' ,          'port'      =>   4444 ,          'timeout'   =>   30000 ,        ) ,        array (          'name'      =>   'Internet Explorer on Windows XP' ,          'browser'   =>   '*iexplore' ,          'host'      =>   'my.windowsxp.box' ,          'port'      =>   4444 ,          'timeout'   =>   30000 ,        )      ) ;        protected   function   setUp ( )      {          $this -> setBrowserUrl ( 'http://www.example.com/' ) ;      }        public   function   testTitle ( )      {          $this -> open ( 'http://www.example.com/' ) ;          $this -> assertTitleEquals ( 'Example Web Page' ) ;      } } ?> In the above example, the test declared in the testTitle() method will be run three times: once using Firefox on Linux, once using Safari on MacOS X, and once using Internet Explorer on Windows XP. Other improvements to SeleniumTestCase include more robust error handling and better error messages. [Less]

Viewtier Systems is looking for testers of their new support for PHPUnit in their Parabuild software build and release management system. I am excited that a company such as Viewtier Systems realizes that there is a market for their ... [More] product in the PHP space and adapts their tool to work well with existing tools such as PHPUnit in that space. [Less]
