  On type safety without generics, and the role of package design

  02-06-2017

  Arnout Boks

  At Moxio we strongly value writing type-safe code. This can be a challenge in PHP however, especially as it lacks a feature known as ‘generics’. In this blog post I will show how (lack of) generics influences type-safe design, how parameter types and return types may change when extending a class or interface, and how we can keep our package design sound while doing so.

  Review Roulette: Everyone is a winner!

  31-03-2017

  Arnout Boks

  In an earlier blog post I introduced our idea of Review Roulette, a process of randomized code reviews with the aim to foster learning and increase collective code ownership. I explained that we would try this idea out as an experiment for two months and evaluate afterwards. I also promised to share the results of that evaluation. In this post I will do so, and describe the steps we took to make Review Roulette work even better for us.

  Maybe you recognise the following situation. You are implementing a new feature, and you know that you can use a certain method, as it already covers some of the functionality you need. You briefly look at it, and you don’t see any exception handling constructs. But can you be sure?

  Although PHP serves us well as a programming language, we cannot deny that some of its behavior can be very surprising, which can easily lead to hidden bugs. In this post we will look into two potential pitfalls in PHP, and how these can be detected and avoided using our open-sourced collection of sniffs for PHP_CodeSniffer.
