Restructure with BrainMonkey about wp_mock HOT 3 CLOSED

I started working on this over the weekend and ran into a bit of a blocker. BrainMonkey requires PHP 5.4 or higher. WP_Mock currently requires 5.3 or higher. I'm hesitant to bump the version requirement of WP_Mock since 5.3 still accounts for a very large number of WordPress installations (including a large number of sites on WP Engine).

At this point, as I see it, we're left with 3 options:

1. Bump our own required PHP version
2. Close this issue as wontfix
3. Try to get BrainMonkey to refactor with 5.3 support

I'm really leaning towards 2. 3 sounds both unreasonable and unlikely. Thoughts?

This change is even harder to justify when one considers that individual projects can still use BrainMonkey together with WP Mock and opt to use BrainMonkey's (IMO) superior DSL for setting expectations on code. Since both libraries use Mockery, the validation, etc. should be the same.

Was an interesting idea at the time. Closing for now.
