I've recently completed some documentation on the PHPT file layout. This is somewhat similar to http://qa.php.net/phpt_details.php in that it lists sections available for use in PHPT files. But this new document includes sections not covered and it includes much more information such as: description, whether it's a required section, requirements for the section, which test scripts support the section, format, sample snippets of the section in use and full test samples backing the sample snippets. I originally wrote this in preparation for the Atlanta TestFest event. Zoe has asked if I would consider converting this document for use as a replacement for the current PHPT details page on the QA site. I agree with him as I wrote this out of a necessity for better documentation and I think it best serves the community by becoming apart of the QA site rather than a link or article off my site. But I'm not one to make unilateral decisions in regards to any of my actions within the PHP community. So I now bring this to the attention of the QA team and ask for your approval. Here is a link to a zip file containing a text version of the document (Test File Layout.txt). It also includes the sample tests for which I used to generate the snippets. If approved, the details page will include links to the sample_tests. These sample tests will be new PHP pages created and stored within a sample_tests folder on the QA site. They will include the QA headers and footers and a link back to the referring details page. http://www.ericstewart.org/public/20090503/PHPT.zip Your "yes" or "no" vote and any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration. Eric Lee Stewart ericleestewart@gmail.com
