John Paul Ashenfelter - Testing CF applications

Test-driven development is very popular in the Java and Ruby worlds and becoming moreso in the ColdFusion world. This session covers the tools that are available to test ColdFusion applications and discusses how to implement them into your existing workflow. We'll specifically cover:

  • CFCUnit/CFUnit for testing ColdFusion code
  • Selenium for testing web pages
  • DBUnit for managing the database during testing
  • Grinder (and similar) load-testing tools

Together, these tools can provide unit, functional, regression, and load tests for your applications. Finally, we'll touch on automating these tests so you can ensure that you are delivering higher-quality, well-tested code.
