Problem/Motivation
Drupal 8.8.x is not passing tests on PHP 7.4. PHP 7.4 is due to be released in November 28, 2019, a week before Drupal 8.8.0.
Proposed resolution
Dependencies to be updated upstream
- Get a new release of easyrdf including https://github.com/njh/easyrdf/pull/311, see comment #28. Alternatively, remove dependency from easyrdf #3090017: Remove test dependency on easyrdf/easyrdf.
Dependencies to be updated in Drupal
- None at the moment.
Spun-off issues
- #3090145: Ensure that mixing array and Attribute objects in theme rendering is managed properly
- #3095895: FieldTypePluginManager::getPluginClass() should throw an exception when called for a field type that doesn't exist
Done:

- Get a new release of composer/composer including https://github.com/composer/composer/pull/8296, see comment #33. #3075785: Update composer/composer to ^1.9.1
- Update to release 1.6.8 of mikey179/vfsstream, see comment #31. mikey179/vfsstream 2.0.x-dev requires PHP 7.2, so D8.8. cannot upgrade to it. #3091225: Require-dev mikey179/vfsstream ^1.6.8 in order to support PHP 7.4
- Get a new release of symfony/validator, including https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/34097:#3092112: Update symfony packages to 3.4.33 before 8.8.x beta

- PHPunit 6 does not run on PHP 7.4 so we need to upgrade it - #2950132: Support PHPUnit 7 optionally in Drupal 8, while keeping support for ^6.5 - unfortunately PHP 7.0 (still supported in 8.8.0) does not run PHPUnit 7.
