StaticAccess
Since: 1.4.0
Static access causes unexchangeable dependencies to other classes and leads to hard to test code. Avoid using static access at all costs and instead inject dependencies through the constructor. The only case when static access is acceptable is when used for factory methods.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar()
{
Bar::baz();
}
}Source https://phpmd.org/rules/cleancode.html#staticaccess
Avoid variables with short names like $db. Configured minimum length is 3. Open

ShortVariable
Since: 0.2
Detects when a field, local, or parameter has a very short name.
Example
class Something {
private $q = 15; // VIOLATION - Field
public static function main( array $as ) { // VIOLATION - Formal
$r = 20 + $this->q; // VIOLATION - Local
for (int $i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) { // Not a Violation (inside FOR)
$r += $this->q;
}
}
