### PHP Testing

- `jp test php` works for all projects except `plugins/jetpack`, which uses `jp docker` commands
- Add `--verbose` for full output: `jp test php packages/connection --verbose`
- Filter to specific tests: `jp test php packages/connection --verbose -- --filter SSO_Test`
- Use PHPUnit with WordPress test framework and `yoast/phpunit-polyfills`
- Follow WordPress testing conventions, use WordPress fixtures and mocks
- Test WordPress hooks and filters
- Test class names MUST end in "Test"
- Every test class MUST be in a file with a matching name (e.g., class `My_Unit_Test` in `My_Unit_Test.php`)
- Many packages use WorDBless (not the WP test factory). Test classes extend `WorDBless\BaseTestCase`. To create test users, use `wp_insert_user()` + `get_userdata()` — do NOT use `self::factory()->user->create_and_get()` as that method is not available. See `projects/packages/connection/tests/php/sso/Helpers_Test.php` for an example.

See `docs/automated-testing.md` for full testing guidelines.
