Simple XML Merger for overtrue/phplint xml reports

Description

This package is inspired from the Repository PHPUnit-Merger.
The merger can be used to combine many xml results from the phplint Repo.

We are using the overtrue/phplint package for static analyze. overtrue/phplint is a fast tool with flexible configuration via yaml. It generates one testsuite (PHP Linter) with a big testcase with all errors. But sometimes it is not necessary to analyze all files again and again.

For us it was necessary to lint only files which are new or modified by the developer. In our CI we run the lint against this files.

vendor/bin/phplint ./this/is/new/File.php -c .phplint.xml --xml=build/phplint/lint-result-File.xml

If you try to merge this file with another lint result file it will be not possible.

Here is the benfit of this new package:

The script sorts the results from one testcase with many classes to one testcase per class with the related errors.
The testsuite will have an overall result of the tests and errors.

The testcases will have an overall result of the errors.

Install

composer install vansari/phplint-merger
