Hi, First of love the structure of the framework, I was just about to build one myself using the exact same structure/principles. I read on a blog somewhere that fuel does have testing built in but it's not documented...would you be able to give me an example of how I would go about writing tests in fuel? Many thanks, CJ

Hi CJ, Yes, we have baked in support for PHPUnit. Basically, you just write your tests inside of the app/tests folder. When you are in there you need to make sure your class name starts with Tests_ and that is extends the TestCase class. You should also use the @group comment so that you can test your app without testing the whole framework. Example:

<?php

/**
 * Foo Tests
 * 
 * @group App
 * @group Foo
 */
class Tests_Foo extends TestCase {
    public function test_that_foo_is foo()
    {
        $this->assertEquals(Foo::get(), 'foo');
    }
}

Then you can run them from the command line using oil:

$ php oil test -group="App"

Hope that helps Dan

Thank you both for the quick response, I'll give it a go
