See sebastianbergmann/php-code-coverage#945

According to upstream maintainers, phpdbg coverage support is not really maintained, and we should therefore migrate away from it.

We will likely need to ship pcov with our container, and use that for running tests.

We may also need to remove phpdbg, since running phpdbg with pcov installed leads to segfaults.

PHPDBG support has been removed right now: sebastianbergmann/php-code-coverage@c304be7

PHPUnit 10 pulled the plug and switched over: will prepare a patch for this, since we can otherwise no longer run coverage reports (which breaks mutation tests)

Ocramius added a commit to Ocramius/laminas-continuous-integration-action that referenced this issue Feb 22, 2023
This is a potential breaking change, but note that PHPUnit v10 no longer
supports PHPDBG for coverage, which was the only use-case for PHPDBG in
this container, thus far.

We instead install `pcov`, which is considered precise enough for coverage
reports by PHPUnit.

Fixes laminas#130

Careful:
https://github.com/laminas/laminas-ci-matrix-action/blob/ca11cee53aec05d9cc301993585c316d27e3040d/src/tools.ts#L34-L42

I still lack time/mood to combine matrix + action in one repository as I am still not that deep into the whole container registry push stuff, etc.

This change will introduce BC break to almost any project running infection.


We may also need to remove phpdbg, since running phpdbg with pcov installed leads to segfaults.

phpdbg is just an executable while pcov is an extension. I wonder if there is a way to have dedicated phpdbg php.ini which just does not load the pcov extension?

Same: mostly trying to reduce the dependency upgrade noise caused by PHPUnit 10.

I will go for 2.0.0 then 👍

If we roll 2.0.0 and drop PHPDBG and PHP:<8.0, I think we can get rid of the problem overall: WDYT?

Yah, I think that might work.

Only thing I don't like about this is that this will then lead to upgrade maintenance in all repositories, including those which still have support for 7.4 which then have to release with a new version dropping 7.4 just because we dropped it as some extension is not properly installable in docker.

So I know that dropping old PHP versions usually provide "easy fixes" but since we are providing a CI pipeline here, it feels kinda weird that we start dropping "old" PHP versions. I still think it could be possible to have both phpdbg and pcov available, might just be a problem with enabling the pcov extension for the dbg SAPI which can probably be fixed in here:

Anyways, thats not the time to discuss this further. I'm fine with a new release - lets see how it will end. Maybe I'm just the panicking dude again while there is no reason to cry. 😅

Well, 7.x is gonna be in oldstable anyway, no?

The fact that we keep this to a new major is OK IMO 👍

I just need to find the willpower to coordinate the releases xD

Hello guys, both this issue and #149 seem have been addressed.

Can milestone 2.0.0 be closed then?

Hello, same question as @Slamdunk , can it be release ? thanks

This patch reduces code size, therefore leading to
generally lower scores.

Until we completely switch to `pcov` and the upstream
issues with `sebastianbergmann/php-code-coverage`
are resolved, we will keep having sub-100% mutation
test scores.
