Today I passed the final exam (on
Computational Geometry) for my
Diplom (comparable to a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in one) in Computer Science.
Yay!

I am once again happy to participate as a mentor in the
Google Summer of Code. This year I am the mentor of Mike Lewis who will implement Mutation Testing for PHPUnit.
Mutation Testing, or Automated Error Seeding, is an approach where the testing tool makes some change to the tested code, runs the tests, and if the tests pass displays a message saying what it changed. This approach is different than code coverage analysis, because it can find code that is executed by the running of tests but not actually tested. It is not meant as a replacement for code coverage analysis, but complementary.
More information can be found here.
To Mike and the other six students who are mentored by the PHP Project: good luck and have fun!
Update: Mike will document his work
here.

Initiated by
Think Design Inc.,
Xinc is not Cruisecontrol is a toolkit for
Continuous Integration that is based upon
PHPUnit and
Phing. It currently supports
Subversion for
Software Configuration Management.
The project is currently in alpha stage and there is no real information available on the website yet. Still, I think this a project to look out for.
