Symfony CMF sandbox now running with multiple different PHPCR implementations
One of the fundamental ideas of PHPCR is that there can be multiple implementations that
from an API act and behave exactly the same, but can be optimized for every different
scalability and server requirements. We have been adding functional tests for the sandbox,
but initially only tested using the Jackrabbit
based PHPCR implementation. In the past weeks we have now also
enabled running the same tests
against the Doctrine DBAL and
Midgard implementations. The key thing is
that all we had to do was adjust the configuration, no code changes were necessary. This is
the best validation of the concept of PHPCR possible! It proofs that the same code can run
against now 3 different implementations of PHPCR!
