Just wanted to share some thought: I am a big fan of the doctest python module (1) and really miss it when I code in PHP. I've been using it for years and it makes unit testing very easy, *quick* and fun, those of you who know python will certainly agree with me on this.

Not to short circuit this, but there's already a proof in PHPT for doctest style tests using the traditional <code> examples that are already most inline API docs. PHPT it slated to become part of PEAR2 once that's in place. It'll be roughly functional by the middle of March as there's an article appearing in php|a that outlines its behavior and usage... :-) If you're interested in helping out, I'd be more than happy to have the help. -Travis
