What? PHP?
PHP is a general-purpose programming language made for the web. It is mostly used server-side, which means that it runs on a web server software, which is customarily going to serve HTML to the website visitors.
PHP initially stood for Personal Home Page, but now stands for the recursive acronym PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.
Are Tests Even Worth the Time?
To make sure the software we want to deliver works as it should, without surprisingly weird side-effects, we run a lot of tests. For that we follow the Test-Driven Development (TDD), this is a development process that relies on the repetition of a very short development cycle: requirements are turned into very specific test cases, then the software is improved so that the tests pass.

200 hours of bug preventing rather than bug fixing with our test driven design.
