CI improvement: Test on PHP 5.2
Closed this issue · 3 comments
I don't think we're going to create a new docker image for a PHP version that old. It's a surprise we still have 5.3. There are various community docker images though that may work. We allow you to override default docker images for any service so you might just want to add in your own docker file that includes the customizations

From https://www.classicpress.net/roadmap/ :
Support for PHP lower than 5.6 has been dropped
The benefit of testing against PHP 5.2 would not be for ClassicPress, but for WordPress sites still running on this version. We would be making sure that our plugin doesn't throw a fatal error on PHP 5.2.
This is going to be unimportant pretty soon anyway though. WordPress may also be bumping the minimum PHP version to 5.6 in a few months: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/12/08/updating-the-minimum-php-version/
I haven't had reason to care about this since I created this issue, so I'm closing it.
