  Description     : A Unit Testing framework for PHP

Unit testing is a means of providing extra confidence in your software
system by writing small snippets of code which test various parts of your
program.  By running these tests regularly, you can assure yourself that
your new features or bugfixes haven't inadvertantly broken some other part
of the system.  Unit testing is a superset of "regression testing", and a
subset of functional testing.

This package provides a framework for unit testing your PHP programs, based
on the Smalltalk Testing Pattern by Kent Beck, described at
http://www.xprogramming.com/testfram.htm.
