In this tutorial, we'll cover a simple calculator in PHP with acceptance tests in the Codeception framework and run them using the Selenium server.
Written by David Capka
In the tutorial, we'll run acceptance tests for a web application programmed in PHP on PhpBrowser and WebDriver via the Selenium server which we configure.
