Spike PHPCoverage 0.6.2 (Default branch). Screenshot Spike PHPCoverage is a tool for measuring and reporting code coverage provided by the test suite of a PHP application. It can instrument and record the line coverage information for any PHP script at runtime. It also provides an extensible reporting mechanism with a standard HTML report implemented out of the box. The default report displays the summary information about the code coverage for an application and also shows the detailed information about a file including which lines were actually executed and with what frequency. It is possible to specify the directories and files that should be included and/or excluded from a coverage measurement.

RMail - Receive the Feed for This Blog Via Email.

I'm such a big fan of RSS and newsreaders (I use FeedDemon) that I sometimes forget that not all of the readers of DennisKennedy.Blog use a newsreader or consume the RSS feed rather than visiting the blog on a regular basis.

RMail from KBCafe is a new service that allows you to enter the URL for the feed for this blog (http://www.denniskennedy.com/index.xml) and your email address, and you will automatically receive my new posts by email. I still recommend using a newsreader, but this will give you an email option for subscribing to my RSS feeds and blog posts.
