should one use phpunit or lime with symfony?

Question

i just wonder, should one use symfony's lime or phpunit for testing?

what are the pros and cons with each one?

thanks

Answer 1

Lime is well covered in the Symfony documentation and so it may be the best place to start.

If you 'outgrow' lime then PHPUnit may well be your next port of call, although there are alternatives:

• SimpleTest
• Testilence
• PHPSpec
• Apache-Test
• SnapTest
