Talks:
- Tina4 & PHP Development: A History
Speaker: Andre van Zuydam
Organisation: Self Employed - Code Infinity
Bio: Nothing is impossible!
Talk: From zero framework to framework, Q&A during the session
- Getting Started with PestPHP
Speaker: Jason Tame
Organisation: Advantage Learn
Bio: Senior Software Developer at Advantagelearn.com. Based in Durban, South Africa. I've been working with PHP for about 6 years now - first with WordPress plugin and theme development and more recently Laravel.
Talk: PestPHP is a testing framework powered by PHPUnit which makes testing simpler and cleaner. It also adds some powerful features which help make you more productive when testing. In this talk I plan on explaining what it is and some of the benefits of adopting it. I'll also do a quick code demo of converting some existing phpunit tests in a dummy application to PestPHP tests while showcasing some of the things which make it a great choice for a test runner.
Keen to see you all there!
