Migrating to 1.x

No code changes should be required, but in some cases, the Composer package name and version constraint will need to be updated:

• If you're using Phony under PHPUnit:
  • Change the Composer package from eloquent/phony to eloquent/phony-phpunit.
  • Pick the appropriate version constraint for the version of PHPUnit you intend to use. See the eloquent/phony-phpunit repository for more information.
• If you're using Phony under Peridot:
  • If you were using eloquent/peridot-phony, change the Composer package to eloquent/phony-peridot.
  • If you were using eloquent/phony, no changes are required, but consider trying eloquent/phony-peridot for the added auto-wired mock support. See the eloquent/phony-peridot repository for more information.
• If you're using Phony under SimpleTest, change the Composer package from eloquent/phony to eloquent/phony-simpletest.
• If you're using Phony under Pho, change the Composer package from eloquent/phony to eloquent/phony-pho.
• For other frameworks, or standalone use, no changes are required.
