Excellent Summary of Ben's Philly Blackstone Presentation
Darron Schall has the best summary I've seen so far of one of Ben Forta's Blackstone preview demos. You can read all about it on Darron's blog.

Paul Kenney Releases cfcUnit Testing Framework
By popular demand, Paul Kenney has provided an early release of his much awaited cfcUnit testing framework. It's basically a port of the jUnit framework and performs the same basic functionality.
If you aren't familiar with testing frameworks, or why you should be considering one, Paul provides a good explanation here (an excerpt from an article published by Christian Cantrell).
Right now, there's basic setup instructions, with more detailed documentation on writing test cases to follow soon. A big thanks to Paul for creating the suite - it's going to go a long way in making development and testing of CFC based applications easier for ColdFusion developers.
Now, if only someone would create a cfcUnit plugin for integration with the CFEclipse!

Going on Vacation
I'm heading off for a relaxing two week break from reality. My wife and I, along with some friends, are heading to the U.K for a week, followed by a week in Malta. No cell phones, no Internet, and most importantly, no work!
Needless to say, I won't be doing any blogging while I'm gone. Luckily, I'll be back just in time to see Ben Forta present at the Phoenix CFUG on June 16th. Can't wait.
