As promised, here are the slides from last night’s talk:
Since the code in the presentation is taken somewhat out of context, I’m including the full code sample as well.
Even though it ended in a tie, it may not be as bad as “kissing your sister”. Both are great libraries that provide functionality that was never possible for us when writing PHP code. Choosing the right one is a matter of personal preference – right now, our preference is Mocha.

at Viget Labs. We write about web development trends, tips, best practices, industry events, and our projects — all with an emphasis on Ruby on Rails.
Tyrant is a "meta" Rails application designed to run other Rails applications.
Tyrant was born out of our need to have non-developers work alongside us without requiring a full Rails stack running on their local machines.
Ideally, Tyrant runs (via mongrel) on a development server with multiple user directories that contain SVN working directories with Rails applications. Upon startup, these applications are listed in a user's dashboard and Tyrant provides the interface to start and stop each one. The configuration settings dictate the available port range, and as a new application is started it will grab the next one available.
We host all of our open source projects on GitHub, at http://github.com/vigetlabs
We are Viget Labs and we plan, design, build, and market web sites that we're proud of.

I don’t see anything wrong, nor...
