Summary

Breaking change, to release as 2.0.0. Users on older versions stay on 1.x, because Composer won't install this version for them.

• Require PHP ^8.2. PHP 7.4, 8.0 and 8.1 no longer receive security updates.
• Require Codeception ^5.0 and PHPUnit ^11.0 || ^12.0 || ^13.0.
• Run CI on PHP 8.2 to 8.5 with lowest and highest dependencies, with no experimental jobs. PHPCS and PHPStan now run on PHP 8.2.
• Update setup-php to 2.40.0 and checkout to v7.
• Pin mockserver/mockserver to 9.2.0 in CI and docker-compose.yml, so a new image can't break CI without a code change.
• Migrate phpunit.xml to the current schema, which removes the PHPUnit deprecations, and ignore var/.

No changes in src/ or tests/.

PHP 8.2 security support ends on 2026-12-31.

8.4	PHPUnit 13.4.6	PHPUnit 11.5.50, Codeception 5.1.0
8.5	PHPUnit 13.4.6	PHPUnit 11.5.50, Codeception 5.1.0

Highest always resolves to Codeception 5.3.7. Composer refuses to install on PHP 8.1.

Test plan

Run locally on Windows with PHP 8.4.27 and MockServer 9.2.0. PHP 8.2 and 8.3 dependencies were selected with Composer's platform setting, so the code itself still ran on 8.4.

• PHPUnit 13.4.6: 13 of 13 tests pass.
• PHPUnit 12.5.43 (PHP 8.3 dependencies): 13 of 13 tests pass.
• PHPUnit 11.5.57 (PHP 8.2 dependencies): 13 of 13 tests pass.
• Lowest dependencies, PHPUnit 11.5.50: 13 of 13 tests pass, with 2 deprecations that don't fail the suite.
• PHPStan and PHPCS pass (PHPCS without the line-ending sniff, because of the CRLF checkout on Windows).
• CI on real PHP 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5, which has not run yet.
