Automatic build and testing suite would be nice
It would be nice to prepare docker or virtual machine(s) for automatic building and testing. At the end collect results and generate nice report.
It's quit a a job to compile and run tests against all supported PHP, FB clients versions, architectures and tread safe / unsafe. For example on Windows alone I've got these targets:
7 PHP versions [7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5] 2 thread safety [nts, ts] 2 arch [x64, x86] 4 compile time libs [fb25, fb30, fb40, fb50] 4 runtime time libs [fbclient25, fbclient3, fbclient4, fbclient5] 4 servers [fb25, fb30, fb40, fb50]
That's 7*2*2*4=112 compilations and (112*4*number_of_tests)=448*number_of_tests tests. number_of_tests vary depending on target. fb25 client lib won't be able to talk to fb5 server, etc
And then there is Linux, macOS and what not 😅
I've started work on https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/php-firebird/blob/master/build_scripts/Dockerfile for Linux builds but more work is needed.
