Description-en: This is the PHP port of Hamcrest Matchers
Hamcrest is a matching library originally written for Java, but subsequently
ported to many other languages. hamcrest-php is the official PHP port of
Hamcrest and essentially follows a literal translation of the original Java
API for Hamcrest, with a few Exceptions, mostly down to PHP language barriers.
