My first experience with testing

Testing 101

Why use a testing framework

You probably use framework when coding (unless you are Rasmus :))
so it is only logical to use it while writing tests

How to test a testing framework?

What is Codeception?

PHPUnit on steroids

Readable tests, BDD style

Describes actions from user's perspective

Integrates with most frameworks

Written in PHP on top of proven packages
