# PHPUnit AssertArraySubset Extension In PHPUnit 8 the function `assertArraySubset` was [deprecated](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3494). This function was often misunderstood and thus removed, but it still holds true as a very useful tool, hence it was extracted here. **Disclaimer:** The initial version contained here is copied over from phpunit and is heavily based on the original work by [Márcio Almada](https://github.com/marcioAlmada). ## Installation Simply use it by importing it with Composer ``` composer require --dev dms/phpunit-arraysubset-asserts ``` ## Usage You have two options to use this in your classes: either directly as a static call or as a trait if you wish to keep existing references working. ```php 0]; $content = ['bar' => '0']; self::assertArraySubset($expectedSubset, $content, true); } public function testWithDirectCall(): void { $expectedSubset = ['bar' => 0]; $content = ['bar' => '0']; Assert::assertArraySubset($expectedSubset, $content, true); } } ```
