The absolute worst testers you can possibly have are developers. They’re better than nothing. But barely. Even a mediocre tester will make your application better, and by proxy, encourage you to become a better developer. The very best testers will drag you, kicking and screaming if necessary, across the bug-bar threshold. Professional testers force you to become a better developer. Sometimes it’s painful. But in a good way, like a heavy workout.

PHPDoc to GitHub wiki
About a month ago I came across an interesting question over at StackOverflow. Â Emanuele Minotto was asking if anybody knows of any easy way to integrate PHPDocumentor with GitHub’s wiki. Â It seemed like a really good idea, so I dug around, but didn’t find anything ready made. Â PHPDoc’s manual however suggests that things are possible. Â Unfortunately, I’m too busy currently to get involved in it myself, but I am really glad to see that Emanuele didn’t abandon the idea and started the project at GitHub. Â If that’s something that you are interested in, I strongly suggest lending a helping hand. Â I’m sure there are plenty of people who’d welcome this integration.
