Unit tests give you a good base to ensure your classes are working technically correct. Integration tests show that they play well with each other. But who takes care that all your code actually does what your business owner wants it to do?

This session gives you an introduction into Behavior Driven Development on basis of Behat to help you achieve automated testing of specifications.

Did you know?

  • If you aggregate the world’s pageviews during peak times, there are more than 70 million page views per minute [2]
  • In March, nearly 785,000 websites were down for about an hour after a single company, CloudFlare, had to manually reset their servers. [3]
  • A single 18-hour Netflix outage crashed the company’s stock to a two-year low [4]

Zend, the PHP Company, to help developers build apps that are scalable and meet today’s availability requirements. We’ve designed Zend Server, which comes in both free and paid editions, to scale in minutes and keep apps continuously available.

  • PHP 5.4 support (in addition to PHP 5.3)
  • Fix most critical bugs (i.e. the bugs which create the most support tickets), including:
    • o licensing issues on Windows
    • o ZendId does not generate mac address
  • Clearer message in the site – remove Zend Optimizer
    • o Today there is a confusion between Zend Optimizer (obsolete) & Zend Loader
  • New license version - 6.0 (that means that users of previous versions won’t be able to use the new Guard without purchasing a new license / upgrade)
  • PHP 5.2 no longer supported (you will have to use an older version of Guard in order to support PHP 5.2)
