3. THE SIMPLEST? Well, well, what did you say?
4. Aimed to be • Easy to read • Easy to write • Easy to debug
5. Judge by code $I = new WebGuy($scenario) $I->wantTo(‘sign up as a customer’); $I->click(‘Sign Up’); $I->fillField(‘name’,’Michael’); $I->fillField(‘password’,’qwerty’); $I->click(‘Submit’); $I->see(‘Hello, Michael!’);
6. HOW IS THAT EASY TO WRITE? It’s just a PHP code. Yep, it’s pretty clean, but…
7. Unleash the power of IDE
8. AND WHAT’S NEXT? So, writing test is nothing but point-and-click adventure…

11. Even more? Debug! • Each broken step is highlighted. • The last response is saved when test fails. • Logs are written. • Page screenshots can be captured.
12. Yep, it’s really that simple
13. A bit of theory • We describe actions from user’s perspective. • We surf the site by clicking links, filling forms. • We expect to see predictable results on page.
14. DOES IT USE A BROWSER? But how is that executed, dude?
15. It’s up to you how to run the test • In a command line with PHPBrowser • Inside a real browser with Selenium • As a functional test of MVC framework
16. IS THAT EASY TO INSTALL TOO? Cool, I’m in!
