Hi,
My company has been using its own PHP framework, called Lampshade, when building products for our clients for a long time. As of today, we've made it open-source under a dual license: fee-based for commercial use, and free for non-commercial use. Feel free to download and take it for a test drive.
Here's a link to the press release, which links to the download page:

Let me know if you have any questions, too.
Thanks,
Aaron

Hi,
I'm afraid it's not unit tested yet--it's been tested by the companies that have been using it for three years.
I'd be happy to use SimpleTest to unit test the framework if I could figure out how. The documentation is extremely confusing to me, though I think I generally understand the point of the software. If you'd be willing to help me better understand how to unit test everything, I'd appreciate it.
We do ask for your name and contact information before you can download the framework. Given that it used to cost $799, I don't think it's asking that much.
Thanks,
Aaron

Since you're a commercial concern I'd do it on a consultancy basis but I'm afraid I've got too much on my plate right now. Do have a look around the unit testing forum though.thinkcomp wrote:If you'd be willing to help me better understand how to unit test everything, I'd appreciate it.
I think you might to have to rethink the requirement to give out some personal details. It's not usual to have to do this and I suspect that for many people that will be their jumping off point, before they've even seen the code.
I know I'm always banging on about this .. but the none of the example sites Lampshade powers pass a simple WAI/Section 508 check. There's no DOCTYPE, no language indentifiers, simple things like alt attributes are missing from the images. In my opinion this makes it unusable for any commercial or government website.
