Prevents PHP changes from being accepted without evidence by enforcing correct PHPUnit test structure, safe test doubles, proper database isolation, and repeatable verification.
TestCase, consistent setup/teardown, and clear assertions.@dataProvider to reduce duplication while expanding scenario coverage.Ask the AI to write a complete PHPUnit test suite for your PHP class, including mocks or stubs for collaborators, table-driven cases with data providers, and a PHPUnit command to verify the results.

PHPUnit data providers enable table-driven testing by feeding multiple datasets into a single test method via @dataProvider annotations, reducing duplication while expanding scenario coverage. This strategy ensures PHP changes are validated consistently across varied inputs.
Database testing isolation is best achieved using rollback-based strategies within PHPUnit to ensure a deterministic state. Proper setup via parent setUp() and teardown methods guarantees that database test scenarios do not leak data between test executions.
Use stubs, mocks, or Prophecy in PHPUnit to test collaborator behavior without executing real dependencies. You should verify collaborator interactions while avoiding mocking the class under test directly, ensuring your unit logic testing remains isolated.
Run PHPUnit verification using the ./vendor/bin/phpunit command, optionally configuring coverage thresholds to enforce evidence-based completion. This verification gate ensures PHP changes are validated with real test evidence rather than assumptions before acceptance.
PHPUnit supports HTTP testing scenarios in common PHP frameworks by applying consistent TestCase conventions and assertions. This allows you to verify endpoint behavior and integration logic while maintaining proper test doubles and database isolation.
