Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together. I really want to learn how to do this well. I will be sharing this with others that I work with.

@Michelangelo,
I am using Zend_Application. In the last code snippet (the TestHelper file), I create an abstract base controller test class and use Zend_Application in the setup routine.
The model tests don’t need it so we can save ourselves the overhead.

@Giorgio,
I tend to build my apps interface-first. It does involve a fair bit of mocking and stubbing but we’re jumping the gun here . I look forward to different perspectives throughout this series.

Starting TDD from the controllers is a bit strange I think, especially in Zend Framework where they should be thin as injecting collaborators is prone to errors.

Hi,

I’m very much involved in unit testing of zf applications and as a coincidence I posted yesterday a quick tutorial on setting up Zend Framework for unit testing (see my blog).

When I look at your last paragraph, where you mention not to use Zend_Application, I’m fearing you’re going to end up in trouble when upgrading your application with the latest Zend Framework library.

I’m not criticizing your approach, but as I found out myself the hard way, keeping options open for future releases is often a good choice.

Since you’re making a series, it won’t harm to present both options.

Anyways, I’m looking forward reading more about it, because I might learn some new tricks.

Keep up the good work and have phpun !

Michelangelo
