It's not really unit testing, though, so it's different from what I'm doing here. It's more like integration testing without having to use an actual web server. (Or as is the case with Selenium, a browser as well.) It fits with what I called the paparrazzi principle in an earlier blog post.</p> Yes, that looks like an excellent idea.

you should give this proposal a try:
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Zend_Controller+Testing+Infrastructure

It’s still a proposal but Matthew completed nearly everything already.
I just started testing it, but so far it looks promising.
