Today I released Version 2.3 of PHPUnit, which is an open source framework for test-driven development in any PHP-based code that automates unit testing and reduces the effort required to frequently test code while developing it.
In addition to some bugfixes, this release introduces a new assertion method (assertNotEquals()), new API methods (addTestFile() and addTestFiles() were added to PHPUnit2_Framework_TestSuite, for instance), and improvements to the Code Coverage, Test Skeleton Generator, and TextDox features.
The most notable improvement is that the standard testsuite loader now checks the test suite sourcefile for syntax errors before loading it. Before, a syntax error in the test suite sourcefile caused a termination of the TextUI test runner, for instance, without any error information being printed. Please note that sourcefiles included by the test suite sourcefile are not checked. This might be implemented at a later time utilizing the sandboxed interpreter feature of the Runkit extension.
