What can the framework do for you?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This extension provides a class :code:`Tx_Phpunit_Framework` which provides
lots of useful helper functions that can do things like these for you:

- simulate a front-end environment

- create, change and count database records in your extension's tables
  and the system tables and manage relations

- create and log in front-end users and user groups

- create back-end users and user groups

- create pages and (system) folders

- create TS template records

- create files and ZIP archives

- clean up everything afterwards again

This framework originally had been part of the *oelib* extension
before it was moved to the *phpunit* extension.
