cache/integration-tests
Integration test suite for validating PSR-6 cache pools, taggable cache pools, and PSR-16 simple caches against PHP-FIG rules. Install as a dev dependency and extend the provided PHPUnit base tests to verify your cache implementation.
Architecture fit: Excellent for Laravel's PSR-6/PSR-16-based cache abstraction layer. Directly validates compliance with PHP-FIG standards, making it essential for testing custom drivers (Redis, Memcached) or third-party adapters within Laravel's ecosystem.
Integration feasibility: High for dev dependencies via Composer, but last release in 2020 and reliance on dev-master complicates dependency management. Requires explicit version pinning to avoid CI instability.
Technical risk: High due to no maintenance since 2020. Potential incompatibility with modern PHP 8.2+ and PHPUnit 10+, and unverified behavior with Laravel-specific edge cases (e.g., distributed cache timeouts, tag expiration logic).
Key questions: How does the package handle PHP 8.2+ and PHPUnit 10+? Does it support Laravel's extended cache interfaces beyond PSR standards? What is the community's ability to address critical issues given zero dependents and no recent activity?
Stack fit: Perfectly aligned with Laravel's cache architecture; designed for testing PSR-compliant implementations. Integrates seamlessly with PHPUnit test suites and Laravel's existing testing infrastructure.
Migration path: Minimal — add as dev dependency, create test classes extending base suites (e.g., CachePoolTest),
