Very nice summary David! We basically use exactly this stack. In addition we make heavy use of Codeception, which fits perfectly into this stack (including PHPStorm support). That allows us to also have browser tests integrated in one stack so that we could get rid of all heavy external testing tools.

Thank you @frantzen , glad you liked the article. I as well have used Codeception extensively in the past. If you dig into it enough it eventually turns into PHPUnit; per Codeceptions own documentation" Codeception uses PHPUnit as a backend for running tests. Thus, any PHPUnit test can be added to Codeception test suite and then executed." - codeception.com/docs-1.8/06-UnitTests

Thank you again for the comment! :D
