It's not too difficult, fortunately. Here's an example skeleton:
class FooControllerTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
public function setUp()
{
$this->front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$this->front->addModuleDirectory('/path/to/modules'); // path to modules and hence controllers
$this->front->resetInstance(); // clear out any settings from prior runs
$this->front->returnResponse(true); // don't auto-emit the response
}
public function testIndexPageContents()
{
// The URL is primarily used so the request URI and related
// information can be set:
$request = new Zend_Controller_Request_Http('
http://localhost/'); // Because returnResponse() has been set to true, we can grab
// the response object this way, and not worry about it being
// auto-emitted:
$response = $this->front->dispatch($request);
// Now you can test!
$this->assertFalse($response->isException()); // no exceptions!
// test that content contains certain strings
$this->assertContains('index page', $response->getBody());
// etc...
}
}
Hope that will help you get started.
