PHPUnit

PHPUnit is a framework independent library for unit testing PHP. Unit testing is a method by which small units of code are tested against expected results. With unit testing we test each component of the code individually. All components can be tested at least once. A major advantage of this approach is that it becomes easier to detect bugs early on. The small scope means it is easier to track down the cause of bugs when they occur.
