Most developers know that they should be writing tests along with their code, but not every developer knows how or where to get started. This talk will walk through the nuts and bolts of the testing a medium-sized Drupal site with many integrated moving parts. We’ll talk about unit testing of individual functions with [http://www.simpletest.org/en/overview.html SimpleTest] (and how that has changed how we write functions), functional testing of the user interface with [http://casperjs.org/ casperjs]. We will discuss automating deployment with [http://www.phing.info/ phing], [http://drupal.org/project/drush drush], [http://jenkins-ci.org/ jenkins-ci] & github, which, combined with our tests, removes the “hold-your-breath” feeling before updating our live site.
