Zend Acl with Authentication and Reflection

Original Post. Click here to see the video.

Zend Acl with Authentication and Reflection

This video tutorial is going to look at how we can build a simple authentication mechanism with Zend_Acl with complete unit test coverage. I wouldn’t say that this is entirely the Zend way of doing things since we’re not using Zend_Auth, however it would be relatively trivial to create a Zend_Auth Adapter for each of the lookup objects that we’re going to write. Lately I’ve been trying to stay disciplined about how I’m writing unit tests and so I figure this should translate into what I’m teaching. I inadvertently covered using reflection in a refactoring job. When you browse the source code, you’ll see that there’s even more potential for refactoring outside the video with the application of an interface.
