I am diving into the web application testing line(php ,ajax,javascript) and need some guidance. There is a lot of stuff in google.
Does anybody known any good links or tutorials to learn from. Any video tutorials that I can watch ?
For PHP testing you could check out the PHPUnit tutorial on the Pear site, and this video on CakePHP TV
For JS testing it might be worth looking at Google JS Test
Hope that's useful!
If you want to go for automated testing, then I would suggest using SELENIUM IDE. You should be able to find tutorials & videos to learn how to use it.
