Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's GitHub Actions setup and the work tracked in issue #26. Add the remaining automatic linting and coding-standards checks after that dependency is complete, and verify that the workflow runs them alongside the existing PHP unit-test matrix.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Automate the CI process with GitHub actions:

  • step running unit tests for PHP == 7.4,
    (as an intermediate step #25)
  • step running unit tests for PHP == 7.0,
    (finally done with #86)
  • step with matrix unit tests for all versions > 7.0,
  • step with matrix unit tests for all versions > 7.4,
    (as an intermediate step #25)
  • step for automatic linting, after #26
  • step for coding standards check, after #26
