Eclipse Testing with TPTP – help me?

I recently came across this tutorial here about Testing with TPTP- and I’m confused. Whats the benefit of this type of testing (um… creating JAVA code for a JUnit test… right?) compared to running some PHPUnit, Selenium and AB (from apache, or something…)? What am I missing – does anyone have any other good hands-on tutorials?

    hehe, I remember me some presentation from Derick Rehans about the development of test applications.

    I think he made a point that these testing routines are important at least for bigger projects. The bad side is that most of the time there is no budget for tests :(

    Hello Olaf,

    Oh – I agree – testing is great. I am working on getting unit tests with PHPUnit and using Selenium as well.

    The company I work for has 4 full time testing staff as well, so they value the quality of testing.

    I guess my real question was: how can creating java (compiled?) tests worth more than writing a selenium or other type of test?
