Simple Test for Eclipse

[Jimboidaho]

I am trying to get some unit testing working using the Simple Test
framework. The problem is I am getting tons of warnings about
"Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated". It
gets very difficult to figure out errors whit so much clutter. I hate
downgrading the PHP error reporting because my own errors may be
missed. Anyone know of a better unit test framework or if this one
is going to get updated?

Thanks.

According to Markus Baker, the developer of SimpleTest, the current SVN version is compatible with PHP5. Personally I gave up on it because I was tired of fighting with it so much just to get it to work.

Right, because you are using PHP5 and SimpleTest is coded to PHP4 standards. You might be able to shut them up by removing E_DEPRECATED from your error reporting levels (unless that is 5.3+).
