## [8.5.19] - 2021-07-31

### Fixed

* [#4740](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4740): `phpunit.phar` does not work with PHP 8.1

## [8.5.18] - 2021-07-19

### Fixed

* [#4720](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4720): PHPUnit does not verify its own PHP extension requirements

## [8.5.17] - 2021-06-23

### Changed

* PHPUnit now errors out on startup when `PHP_VERSION` contains a value that is not compatible with `version_compare()`, for instance `X.Y.Z-(to be removed in future macOS)`

## [8.5.16] - 2021-06-05

### Changed

* The test result cache (the storage for which is implemented in `PHPUnit\Runner\DefaultTestResultCache`) no longer uses PHP's `serialize()` and `unserialize()` functions for persistence. It now uses a versioned JSON format instead that is independent of PHP implementation details (see [#3581](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3581) and [#4662](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/pull/4662) for examples why this is a problem). When PHPUnit tries to load the test result cache from a file that does not exist, or from a file that does not contain data in JSON format, or from a file that contains data in a JSON format version other than the one used by the currently running PHPUnit version, then this is considered to be a "cache miss". An empty `DefaultTestResultCache` object is created in this case. This should also prevent PHPUnit from crashing when trying to load a test result cache file created by a different version of PHPUnit (see [#4580](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4580) for example).

### Fixed

* [#4663](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4663): `TestCase::expectError()` works on PHP 7.3, but not on PHP >= 7.4

* [#4692](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4692): Annotations in single-line doc-comments are not handled correctly
* [#4694](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4694): `TestCase::getMockFromWsdl()` does not work with PHP 8.1-dev

## [8.5.15] - 2021-03-17

### Fixed

* [#4591](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4591): TeamCity logger logs warnings as test failures

## [8.5.14] - 2021-01-17

### Fixed

* [#4535](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4535): `getMockFromWsdl()` does not handle methods that do not have parameters correctly
* [#4572](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/4572): Schema validation does not work with `%xx` sequences in path to `phpunit.xsd`
