* Package name : php-weirdan-prophecy-shim Version : 1.0.0 Upstream Author : Bruce Weirdan <weir...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/weirdan/prophecy-shim * License : MIT Programming Lang: PHP Section : php Description: Prophecy shim for PHPUnit This package provides a compatibility shim for the Prophecy mocking framework to work with PHPUnit. It allows using Prophecy mocks in PHPUnit tests without conflicts or compatibility issues across different PHPUnit versions. The shim provides the ProphecyTrait that was deprecated in PHPUnit 9.1 and removed in PHPUnit 10, enabling seamless use of Prophecy mocks in tests regardless of the PHPUnit version being used. Rationale: This package is required as a dependency for FOSSology, an open source license compliance system. FOSSology uses PHP-based tools for source code analysis and license detection, which need comprehensive testing capabilities with mocking support to ensure reliability and accuracy of license detection algorithms. The php-weirdan-prophecy-shim package is essential for: - Enabling Prophecy mocking framework compatibility with PHPUnit - Supporting testing of FOSSology's PHP components across PHPUnit versions - Maintaining test compatibility when upgrading PHPUnit versions - Providing consistent mocking capabilities for unit tests - Supporting reliable automated testing of license detection tools - Ensuring test suites work with both older and newer PHPUnit versions Technical Details: - Requires PHP >= 5.4 - Depends on phpunit (^6.0|^7.0|^8.0|^9.0) - Provides ProphecyTrait for PHPUnit compatibility - Uses PSR-4 autoloading - Provides compatibility layer for Prophecy mocking framework - MIT licensed for maximum compatibility - Supports multiple PHPUnit versions Dependencies: - php (>= 5.4) - phpunit (>= 6.0) - Build dependencies: phpunit, php-codesniffer The package will be maintained by Ahmed Gamal <ahmed.gamal9...@gmail.com> as part of the FOSSology packaging effort. -- Ahmed Gamal FOSSology Debian Packaging Team
