I dont know PHPUnit all that well. Anyways I know that Paul Cooper started on PHPUnit tests for MDB. Working on MDB I cannot say how important Metabase testing suite currently is to ensure that the (new) drivers are doing what they

are

supposed to. But then again running your tests against the Metabase Wrapper of MDB is not cool, nor does it make the bugtracking very transparent :-)

can u go more into detail? what do you really mean by "running your tests against the Metabase"?

All that means is that I currently use the testing suite probided by Metabase. So when I test MDB with that test suite I have to use the Metabase Wrapper that MDB provides.

So I really want to have a native test suite for MDB.

why that?

Sorry, with native I mean a test suite that tests MDB's native methods and not the methods provided by the Metabase Wrapper.

ok, i got u ... i just meant to say in general that PHPUnit is a testing framework so it would be nice to let it serve it's purpose by using it :-) i was not talking about MDB in detail -- regards Wolfram ... translating template engine .... http://sf.net/projects/simpletpl ... authentication system .... http://sf.net/projects/auth
