CakePHP Unit Testing
CakePHP Unit Testing
Accelerate Your Development
About the Book
I wrote this book for the following audiences:
- People who have programming skills and want to improve the quality of their code.
- People who have heard about unit testing but are still not clear what it is or how it works.
- People who love CakePHP and want to take advantage of what it offers.
- People who have spent a lot of time searching for bugs after a 3rd party upgrade.
The examples in this book use CakePHP, but the first half of the book is not framework or language specific. I hope unit testing and the ideas presented in this book will help you as much as they’ve helped me.
