A php toolset to drive emergent design by specification.

phpspec is a development tool, designed to help you achieve clean and working PHP code by using a technique derived from test-first development called (spec) behaviour driven development, or SpecBDD.

The technique consists of describing the next object behaviour (spec) you are about to implement, using a tool like phpspec, then writing just enough code to quickly satisfy that specification and finally stopping to refactor the last increment, allowing the emergent design to guide the direction. This is done in small iterative steps.
