So at work we’ve been looking around at the various types of test management tools that are out there. For the most part, in my most humble opinion, they all suck. This had led me down a dark, dark, path, paved in PHP and grouted with MySQL. I’ve been flushing out, conceptually at first, what I really want out of a test management tool, and now I’m working on a database model that might support it.
The database model done for the most part, but now I need to figure out the hard stuff. I know I want to use PHP, but I don’t know how I plan on doing the actual implementation. My first thought is start with building a webservice interface; which I can then consume from any front-end I want, be it a desktop or web application.
There are a number of fancy PHP framework’s out there, at the moment I’m looking at PEAR to help with building the webservice. We’ll see how it goes.
