CFUnit for Mach-II?

Hi Kev,
Actually, you may be thinking on cfcUnit, another unit testing
framework for ColdFusion.

cfcUnit was originally built specifically for Mach-II, but I believe
they later updated it to no longer be dependant on it.

As for CFUnit, as far as I know CFUnit should also work fine with or
without Mach-II - but I have not worked with Mach-II in about a year
so I can't really confirm that myself. Can someone else confirm/deny
this for Kev (and if there are any issues, please let me know so we
can resolve them).

Thanks

That may just be bad phrasing so allow me to clarify:

Early versions of cfcUnit required that you had Mach II installed
because the test runner application depended on it. cfcUnit was not
built *for* Mach II. Nowadays, cfcUnit contains a self-contained,
modified version of an old Mach II core just for the HTML app that
lets you run tests from a browser. You don't need to have Mach II
installed anywhere yourself - cfcUnit is a simple install'n'run setup
now.

Here at Adobe, we use cfcUnit extensively to test components that are
part of a variety of frameworked applications, both Mach II and
Model-Glue, as well as components that are part of models that are
invoked by web services and/or Flash Remoting.

My experience with CFUnit leads me to expect the same framework
neutrality as I've seen with cfcUnit.
