I used BDD in my two last rails projects. The used tools have been cucumber(for user stories) and webrat/capybara (for plain http and html processing). Due to the little javascript in these projects there was no need to use selenium. But selenium will/would have been plugged in underneath the BDD layer. Due to the heavy use of javascript in owncloud we must use selenium. For sure all these ruby tools can be used for acceptance testing a php project as well. But PHPUnit has support for selenium as well: http://www.phpunit.de/manual/3.1/en/selenium.html We need to dig into this topic - another developer meeting would be great! ;-) Tom > regards, > > Klaas > _______________________________________________ > Owncloud mailing list > Owncloud@kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list Owncloud@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
