PHPUnit
Link -
PHPUnit is a unit testing software framework for the programming language PHP . Created by Sebastian Bergmann, PHPUnit is one of the xUnit family of frameworks that originated with Kent Beck's SUnit.
Purpose
PHPUnit was created with the view that the sooner you detect your code mistakes, the quicker you can fix them. Like all Unit testing frameworks PHPUnit uses assertions to verify that behaviour of the unit of code under test behaves as expected.
Benefits
The goal of unit testing is to isolate each part of the program and show that the individual parts are correct. A unit test provides a strict, written contract that the piece of code must satisfy. As a result, unit tests find problems early in the development cycle.
