Continuous Integration In PHP

Here is a nice article I found about continuous integration in PHP wrote by Eric Hogue. He covered some aspects and some useful tools like:


  1. PHPUnit
  2. PHP CodeSniffer
  3. PHP Depend
  4. PHP Mess Detector
  5. PHP Dead Code Detector
  6. Jenkins
Most of this tools were written by Sebastian Bergmann. Great work!

I use PHPUnit and code coverage tools and I must say its a great experience, and its very useful! I am planning to use the new tools I discovered on my next project. 

I recommend them to any PHP programmer, even if some of you are not programming in PHP I am sure that there are similar tools for you too. For example JUnit for Java developers.
