If you’re new to testing in PHP, and were wondering how to create and run automated tests, here’s an ebook which will help you get the basics right.

Practical PHP Testing is an ebook which is a compilation of  articles from Giorgio Sironi’s blog on Practical PHP testing.

This book takes you though the basics of PHPUnit – how to install it and start writing simple tests using PHP Unit. Here are some of what this ebook covers:

• bonus chapter on TDD theory;
• a case study on testing a php function;
• working code samples, some of whom were originally kept on pastebin.com;
• sets of TDD exercises at the end of each chapter;
• glossary that substitutes external links to wiki and other posts, to not interrupt your reading with terms lookup.
