Inherited a CFML Application With Few Tests? Here’s Where to Start!
You need to change an application that has been running for years.
It might be a ColdFusion customer portal, a Lucee application supporting internal operations, or a CFML system your team is preparing to modernize. People depend on it, but some of its behavior lives in old tickets, scattered documentation, and the memory of whoever has supported it longest.
Now a release is approaching. You know more testing would help. The difficult part is deciding where to begin without putting every other priority on hold.
Start with one important workflow and build evidence around what it needs to do.

Ah OK - no problem. Explains why I wasn't getting any updates :) I think the MXUnit guys are mirroring the gitHub repo on SVN, but I might be wrong.

Yes you van very easily. I recommend the egit eclipse plugin or smartgit. Once the repo is cloned
Git clone URL
You can do git pull to update to the latest commits. Or use the egit plugin and is easy as svn. Same deal.
