      <description><![CDATA[<p>
NetTuts.com has posted <a href="http://net.tutsplus.com/articles/interviews/chatting-with-the-grumpy-php-programmer/">an interview they've done</a> with <i>Chris Hartjes</i> (aka "The Grumpy Programmer") about his stance on testing in PHP applications and some of his background as a developer.
</p>
<p>Questions from <i>Jeffery Way</i> include:</p>
<ul>
<li>You recently self-published "<a href="http://grumpy-testing.com/">The Grumpy Programmer's Guide to Building Testable Applications.</a>" What made you want to write this specific title?
<li>In your opinion, what is the single biggest advantage to testing your applications?
<li>Testing applications is a bit odd, in that, overall, the idea is a simple one. [...] Was there a specific article or video that suddenly made you "get" it all those years ago?
<li>What are your thoughts on the vitriol toward PHP lately - referring to various viral blog posts on the subject? Is it warranted?
</ul>
<p>
You can find out more about <i>Chris'</i> book <a href="http://grumpy-testing.com/">here</a> or follow him <a href="http://twitter.com/grmpyprogrammer">on Twitter</a> or his <a href="http://www.littlehart.net/atthekeyboard">blog</a>.
