We are so pleased to bring you another addition to our Ortus product lineup: TestBox.  TestBox is a next generation testing framework for ColdFusion that is based on BDD (Behavior Driven Development) for providing a clean obvious syntax for writing tests. It contains not only a testing framework, runner, assertions and expectations library but also integrates with MockBox, our  mocking and stubbing library. It also supports xUnit style of testing and MXUnit compatibilities.  TestBox has been released as a 1.0.0 Alpha and can be downloaded from our main downloads page and it has been also integrated into the "development" branch for the ColdBox platform as well.  You can read much more detail about the release from our engineering blog.

Inherited a CFML Application With Few Tests? Here’s Where to Start!

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.
