… actions
- composer.json php: ^7.4 -> ^7.4 || ^8.0
- composer.json require-dev:
- phpunit ^8.5.52 -> ^9.6
- mockery ^1.3.1 -> ^1.6 (PHPUnit 9 + PHP 8 compatible)
- graze/console-diff-renderer ^0.6.1 -> ^1.0 (just-tagged v1.1.0 supports PHP 8.0-8.5
and allows symfony/console ^5)
- symfony/console ^4 | ^5 -> ^5 (4.x cap was only there because the old
console-diff-renderer required it)
- add dms/phpunit-arraysubset-asserts ^0.5 (polyfill for the assertion PHPUnit 9 removed)
- CI matrix: ['7.4'] -> ['7.4', '8.0', '8.1', '8.2', '8.3', '8.4', '8.5']
- actions/checkout: @v5 -> @v6 (cache@v6 doesn't exist; kept @v5)
- PHPUnit 9 test migration:
- assertRegExp -> assertMatchesRegularExpression (8 sites)
- @ExpectedException annotations -> $this->expectException(...) (7 sites)
- PoolLoggerTest uses ArraySubsetAsserts trait for assertArraySubset
PHP 7.4 validated locally: 131 tests, 696 assertions, OK; phpcs clean;
no Composer advisories. CI matrix will validate the actual PHP 8.x reach.
