PHPUnit 6 - how to handle ?

[Remi Collet]

Hi,

PHPUnit version 6.0.0 have just been released

I'm thinking on the best way to have it in Fedora.

Upstream changes:

- requires PHP 7

- introduce namespace

- drop deprecated methods

The last one is probably a blocker for us, as tons of packages raise
warnings during the test suite about "getMock" usage.

Reminder:

PHPUnit 4.8 is EOL, so 4.8.34 (in epel-testing) will be the last one
available there

PHPUnit 5.7 will be EOL in February 2018... in only 1 year (sadly even
before the PHP 5 EOL...)

Do you think it worth to create an parallel installable version ?

This will need new reviews for

php-phpunit-dbunit3 version 3.0.0

php-phpunit-php-code-coverage5 version 5.0.0

php-phpunit-mock-objects4  version 4.0.0

phpcov version 4.0.0

phpunit version 6.0.0

But having 2 providers for php-composer(phpunit/phpunit)  will be
probably a bit hard, especially if we want to keep both command, so

/usr/bin/phpunit and /usr/bin/phpunit6

In all cases... seems we'll have to fix most of existing packages... :(

Any other ideas ? comment or feedback ?

First set of packages available in my repo, if you want to test them.

- phpunit6-6.0.5-1
- php-phpunit-mock-objects4-4.0.0-1
- php-phpunit-php-code-coverage5-5.0.0-1

Never pulled if you don't BR phpunit6 (no composer provides)

About compatibility.

Test suite designed for PHPUnit 5 won't run on PHPUnit 6

But, thanks to "forward compatibility",
test suite designed for PHPUnit 6 will run on

PHPUnit 4.8.35 (EPEL-7, testing)
PHPUnit 5.7.*  (Fedora)

Minimal adaptation can be enough (simple case)
Examples:

https://github.com/php-fedora/autoloader/commit/b548f49c56146f486e9fac8623df...

https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/commit/1df387eb037214d9c0a419fbb013b76f...
