Overview

In this gist, I attempt to communicate techniques for defining explicit boundaries over naturally occuring boundaries (in this case, the boundary between domain and service/data layers) to empower both testing and to improve comprehensibility of the system.

In my view, testing and application code are one-and-the-same and should evolve together. Testing code should not be an after-thought. I believe that haphazardly designing application code and test code leads to lead-time penalities.

If you'd like to reply, consider replying to this twitter thread. Additionally, I am available on Twitter @ShawnMcCool.

Note: I acknowledge that no techniques are right for everyone. But I have a long history with these techniques and I found them quite adequate for large and small-scale systems.

My Validation Base Class

I was asked how I deal with validation / create and update validation rulesets. Well here is one method I have used. Don't be afraid to build on top of what the framework has already given you. In my projects I use a base class for almost anything. You never know when you want your classes to inherit some common functionality. My BaseValidator actually has some pretty useful methods and properties in it.

<?php

namespace FooProject\Internal\Validators;

use FooProject\Internal\Sanitizers\BaseSanitizer;

So you want to accept payments online with PHP?

- Well, you probably don't want to handle that process manually. Too dangerous and risky.
- So learn the Stripe API. Works great!
- But you'll still need to setup SSL. So go learn how to do that.
- Stripe provides a PHP package, so download that through Composer. If you're not familiar with Composer, you'll need to learn that too.
- If you want the most flexibility, you'll want to manually create the payment form.
- So you'll need to send an AJAX request with a special token to Stripe's API. jQuery makes this easy, so go learn jQuery.
- Once the payment completes, you'll likely want to send the buyer a "Purchased" email, so learn how to send email.
- But don't make the user wait for the email to send. That takes too long. Add that to a background job.
