Ron: thanks also. I unit test my own code and have seen the (excellent)
Zendcast thingies. I'm steadily getting ready to provide input during
monthly bug hunt days but didn't want, in effect, two system set-ups to cope
with that and my developments. Matthew's answer makes me think towards
gearing all my development pursuits for ZF 2.0.
Looking forward to ZF 2.0. I've started using namespaces in my 'library'
files in anticipation.
A quick questions regarding your debugging, and bear in mind I'm just
starting with unit testing in pursuit of a proper TDD approach. Are you
using the zend studio for testing or do you use phpunit from the command
line? I've never run into the problem you described and wonder why.
Good point! I do not use ZS, instead phpDesigner.* I use both PHPUnit
raw (for testing specific objects) and with CruiseControl/Ant (for full
test and build). Command line stuff I set into .bat files. So now you
mention it, I wonder if it does make a difference.
*I prefer Windows XP for development. ZS seems slow and clunky on it.
phpDesigner works faster than ZS, NetNeans et al on XP in my experience.
Caveat: last time I compared was about a year ago. Also, I work in my
own studio, responsible for my own costs. ZS seems unnecessarily pricey
without having enough superior facilities to warrant the price (circa
$99 would grab me and lots of other developers I know).
