Lendable PHPUnit Extensions
===========================

[](#lendable-phpunit-extensions)

Warning

This library is still in early development.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install through Composer:

```
composer require --dev lendable/phpunit-extensions
```

Features
--------

[](#features)

### Strict mocking

[](#strict-mocking)

By default, when creating a mock all method return values are stubbed based on typing information. E.g.

```
public function foo(): int
{
    return $this->foo;
}
```

Will be stubbed to return `0`. This library ships two mechanisms to simplify disabling this functionality to force all methods called on a mock to be configured explicitly.

- If you extend from `Lendable\PHPUnitExtensions\TestCase`, this will be enabled. If you can just extend from this class it is the simplest way to opt-in to all functionality.
- The trait `Lendable\PHPUnitExtensions\StrictMocking` is provided to enable this alone. If you are forced into using another abstract `*TestCase` (e.g. from a vendor) this can be added into the class hierarchy.

PHPStan
-------

[](#phpstan)

A PHPStan extension is provided to enforce usage of features of this library.

Add the rules into your PHPStan configuration:

```
rules:
    # ...
    - vendor/lendable/phpunit-extensions/phpstan/rules.neon
```

Configure any exclusions you may have:

```
lendable_phpunit:
    enforceStrictMocking:
        pardoned:
            - Foo\Bar\MyTest
```
