PHPMagazine has a new pointer to an New York PHP Group presentation of combining the powers of Perl and PHP to come out with something bigger and better than before.

This October join New York PHP and recognized author Chris Shiflett and special guest Geoff Young as they look at the interesting combination of PHP and Perl. Stop by our IBM location to see how these two languages complement each other for testing.

Testing PHP with Perl: Two Great Tastes that Taste Great Together: Lots of people use PHP for Web development. Lots of people use Perl for testing. Why can't we be friends? This fun but genuine talk will show how developers can use the power of the Apache-Test framework to improve the overall quality of PHP applications using Perl's mature testing tools and methodologies.

So, if you're in the New York area (IBM - 590 Madison Avenue, Room 1219 (12th Floor) [map]), you should stop on by on the 26th (10.26.2004) and see what this is all about. Remember - you must RSVP by 3:00pm on October 25th. IBM Security will not let you in the building if your name isn't listed.
