3.0.0 - 2024-09-07
This release updates the PHPUnit Polyfills to allow for "writing your tests for PHPUnit 11 and running them all the way back to PHPUnit 6". [*]
Please keep in mind that the PHPUnit Polyfills provide forward-compatibility. This means that features which PHPUnit no longer supports in PHPUnit 11.x, are also no longer supported in the 3.0 release of the PHPUnit Polyfills.
Please refer to the PHPUnit 11 release notification and PHPUnit 11 changelog to inform your decision on whether or not to upgrade (yet).
Projects which don't use any of the new or removed functionality in their test suite, can, of course, use the PHPUnit Polyfills 1.x, 2.x and 3.x series side-by-side, like so composer require --dev yoast/phpunit-polyfills:"^1.0 || ^2.0 || ^3.0"
.
[*]: Note: Releases from the PHPUnit Polyfills 3.x branch will support running tests on PHPUnit 6.4.4 - 9.x and 11.x, but will not allow for running tests on PHPUnit 10 (for reasons explained in #200). In practical terms, the net effect of this is that tests on PHP 8.1 will run on PHPUnit 9 instead of PHPUnit 10. Other than that, there is no impact.
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertArrayWithListKeys
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertArrayIsEqualToArrayOnlyConsideringListOfKeys()
,Assert::assertArrayIsEqualToArrayIgnoringListOfKeys()
,Assert::assertArrayIsIdenticalToArrayOnlyConsideringListOfKeys()
andAssert::assertArrayIsIdenticalToArrayIgnoringListOfKeys()
methods as introduced in PHPUnit 11.0.0. PR #198.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\ExpectUserDeprecation
trait to polyfill theTestCase::expectUserDeprecationMessage()
andTestCase::expectUserDeprecationMessageMatches()
methods as introduced in PHPUnit 11.0.0. PR #200. These methods can largely be seen as replacements for theTestCase::expectDeprecationMessage()
andTestCase::expectDeprecationMessageMatches()
methods which were removed in PHPUnit 10.0, though there are significant differences between the implementation details of the old vs the new methods. Please see the README for full details.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertObjectNotEquals
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertObjectNotEquals()
method as introduced in PHPUnit 11.2.0. PR #199.
- Composer: allow for installation of PHPUnit 11.x and removed runtime support for PHPUnit 10.x. PR #196, #200
- The assertion failure message for the
assertIsList()
method has been updated to be in sync with the latest message format as used by PHPUnit 11.3.1+. #195 - The visibility of the
expectExceptionMessageMatches()
method has been changed frompublic
toprotected
, in line with the same changes as per PHPUnit 11.0. #197 - The
assertObjectEquals()
method polyfill now behaves the same as the PHPUnit native assertion method. PR #192 Previously a comparator method could either be compatible with PHP 5.6+ in combination with PHPUnit < 9.4.0 or with PHP 7.0+, but it wasn't possible to write a comparator method which would work in both situation due to the return type declaration requirement from PHPUnit itself. With the new PHP 7.0 minimum requirement, the return type declaration is now always required and the polyfill and the PHPUnit native method are completely aligned. - General housekeeping.
- Support for PHP < 7.0. PR #192.
- Support for PHPUnit < 6.4.4. PR #193.
- The
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Helpers\AssertAttributeHelper
trait. PR #194. This "helper" was only intended as a temporary measure to buy people some more time to refactor their tests. - The
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\ExpectExceptionObject
trait which is no longer needed now support for PHPUnit < 6.4 has been dropped. PR #193.
2.0.2 - 2024-09-07
This is a maintenance release.
- README: updated sub-section about PHPUnit version support with information about the PHPUnit Polyfills 3.x branch. PR #188

expectDeprecation*()
methods et al. PR #187, props Tonya Mork. - README: links to the PHPUnit manual now point explicitly to the PHPUnit 10.x documentation. PR #190
- General housekeeping.
2.0.1 - 2024-04-05
- Compatibility fixes for running tests using a PHPUnit PHAR file for PHPUnit 8.5.38+, 9.6.19+ and PHPUnit 10.5.17+. PRs #161, #164.

2.0.0 - 2023-06-06
This release updates the PHPUnit Polyfills to allow for "writing your tests for PHPUnit 10 and running them all the way back to PHPUnit 5".
Please keep in mind that the PHPUnit Polyfills provide forward-compatibility. This means that features which PHPUnit no longer supports in PHPUnit 10.x, like expecting PHP deprecation notices or warnings, are also no longer supported in the 2.0 release of the PHPUnit Polyfills.
Please refer to the PHPUnit 10 release notification and PHPUnit 10 changelog to inform your decision on whether or not to upgrade (yet).
Projects which don't use any of the new or removed functionality in their test suite, can, of course, use the PHPUnit Polyfills 1.x and 2.x series side-by-side, like so composer require --dev yoast/phpunit-polyfills:"^1.0 || ^2.0"
.
⚠️ Important: about the TestListener polyfill⚠️ The TestListener polyfill in PHPUnit Polyfills 2.0 is not (yet) compatible with PHPUnit 10.0.0.
If you need the TestListener polyfill, it is recommended to stay on the PHPUnit Polyfills 1.x series for the time being and to watch the related ticket.

methods as introduced in PHPUnit 10.1.0. PR #116.
- Composer: allow for installation of PHPUnit 10.x. PR #130

final
. This alignes them with the same change made upstream in PHPUnit 10.0.0. PR #104. - General housekeeping.

Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertNumericType
trait which is no longer needed now support for PHPUnit < 5.7 has been dropped. PR #102. - The
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\ExpectException

1.0.5 - 2023-03-31
- A custom
$message

As of version 2.15.0 of the shivammathur/setup-php
action for GitHub Actions, the PHPUnit Polyfills can be installed directly from this action using the tools
key.

1.0.1 - 2021-08-09
- The
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Autoload

1.0.0 - 2021-06-21
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertClosedResource
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertIsClosedResource()
andAssert::assertIsNotClosedResource()
methods as introduced in PHPUnit 9.3.0. PR #27.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertObjectEquals
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertObjectEquals()
method as introduced in PHPUnit 9.4.0. PR #38. The behaviour of the polyfill closely matches the PHPUnit native implementation, but is not 100% the same. Most notably, the polyfill will check the type of the returned value from the comparator method instead of enforcing a return type declaration for the comparator method.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\EqualToSpecializations
trait to polyfill theAssert::equalToCanonicalizing()
,Assert::equalToIgnoringCase()
andAssert::equalToWithDelta()
methods as introduced in PHPUnit 9.0.0. PR #28, props Marc Siegrist.- Polyfills for the PHP native

(waspublic
). Issue #10, PR #20, props Mark Baker for reporting.- README: re-ordered the sections and various other improvements.
- Initial preparation for PHPUnit 10.0 compatibility.
- General housekeeping.
- Issue #17 via PR #18 -

passed was an empty string. Props Gary Jones.
0.2.0 - 2020-11-25
Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\TestListeners\TestListenerDefaultImplementation
: a cross-version compatible base implementation forTestListener
s using snake_case method names to replace the PHPUnit native method names.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Helpers\AssertAttributeHelper
trait containing agetProperty()
and agetPropertyValue()
method. This is a stop-gap solution for the removal of the PHPUnitassertAttribute*()
methods in PHPUnit 9. It is strongly recommended to refactor your tests/classes in a way that protected and private properties no longer be tested directly as they should be considered an implementation detail. However, if for some reason the value of protected or private properties still needs to be tested, this helper can be used to get access to their value.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertNumericType
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertFinite()
,Assert::assertInfinite()
andAssert::assertNan()
methods as introduced in PHPUnit 5.0.0.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\ExpectException
trait to polyfill theTestCase::expectException()
,TestCase::expectExceptionMessage()
,TestCase::expectExceptionCode()
andTestCase::expectExceptionMessageRegExp()
methods, as introduced in PHPUnit 5.2.0 to replace theTestcase::setExpectedException()
and theTestcase::setExpectedExceptionRegExp()
method.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\Polyfills\AssertFileDirectory
trait to polyfill theAssert::assertIsReadable()
,Assert::assertIsWritable()
methods and their file/directory based variations, as introduced in PHPUnit 5.6.0.Yoast\PHPUnitPolyfills\TestCases\TestCase
: support for theassertPreConditions()
andassertPostConditions()
methods.
