composer-plugin-qa is a Composer plugin which adds all the most popular PHP quality assurance tools as composer scripts, so that you don’t have to install and set them up one by one. The list of tools includes the following:
- PHPUnit: Testing Framework
- PHPCOV: CLI frontend for the PHP_CodeCoverage
- Paratest: Parallel testing for PHPUnit
- DbUnit: Puts your database into a known state between test runs
- PHPLOC: A tool for quickly measuring the size of a PHP project
- PHPCPD: Copy/Paste Detector
- PHP_Depend: Quality of your design in the terms of extensibility, reusability and maintainability
- PHPMD: User friendly frontend application for the raw metrics stream measured by PHP Depend
- PhpMetrics: Static analysis tool, gives metrics about PHP project and classes
- PHP_CodeSniffer: Detects violations of a defined set of coding standards
- PHP-CS-Fixer: A tool to automatically fix coding standards issues
- Security-Checker: Checks if your application uses dependencies with known security vulnerabilities
This list is very similar to the one in my other recent post.
