Tests

This library comes with a set up PHPUnit tests that cover all non-trivial code. Additionally, code style checks by PHPCS and PHPMD are supported. The configuration for all 3 these tools can be found in the root directory. You can use the tools in their standard manner, though can run all checks required by our CI by executing composer ci. To just run tests use composer test, and to just run style checks use composer cs.
