Introduction to PHPMailUnit.

PHPMailUnit lets you test the sending of emails and check all the related data of every email.

PHPMailUnit implements under the covers a basic SMTP server and instead of delivering the email it logs it in a file. This file is then accessed by PHPMailUnit to provide every data of the email which you can assert in your unit tests.

Using PHPMailUnit

Quite easy indeed.

1. Be sure to add PHPMailUnit directory to the include_path. Then in your test...

2. Call PHPMailUnit::setUp();. This will start the smtp server.

3. Send an email with following smtp server settings: localhost:3535

4. Retrieve the email sent using PHPMailUnit::getLastMail();

5. Call PHPMailUnit::tearDown(); to stop the internal smtp server
