Unused parameters are misleading. Whatever the value passed to such parameters is, the behavior will be the same.
Noncompliant Code Example
function doSomething($a, $b) { // "$a" is unused return compute($b); }
Compliant Solution
function doSomething($b) { return compute($b); }
Exceptions
Functions in classes that override a class or implement interfaces are ignored.
class C extends B { function doSomething($a, $b) { // no issue reported on $b compute($a); } }

Duplicated string literals make the process of refactoring error-prone, since you must be sure to update all occurrences.
On the other hand, constants can be referenced from many places, but only need to be updated in a single place.
Noncompliant Code Example
With the default threshold of 3:
function run() { prepare('action1'); // Non-Compliant - 'action1' is duplicated 3 times execute('action1'); release('action1'); }
Compliant Solution
ACTION_1 = 'action1'; function run() { prepare(ACTION_1); execute(ACTION_1); release(ACTION_1); }
Exceptions
To prevent generating some false-positives, literals having less than 5 characters are excluded.

Shadowing fields with a local variable is a bad practice that reduces code readability: it makes it confusing to know whether the field or the variable is being used.
Noncompliant Code Example
class Foo { public $myField; public function doSomething() { $myField = 0; ... } }

Reduce the number of returns of this function 5, down to the maximum allowed 3. Open
private static function assertTypeCheck($value, $type)
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Having too many return statements in a function increases the function's essential complexity because the flow of execution is broken each time a return statement is encountered. This makes it harder to read and understand the logic of the function.
Noncompliant Code Example
With the default threshold of 3:
function myFunction(){ // Noncompliant as there are 4 return statements if (condition1) { return true; } else { if (condition2) { return false; } else { return true; } } return false; }

Define and throw a dedicated exception instead of using a generic one. Open
throw new RuntimeException('Middleware not found: ' . $name);
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
If you throw a general exception type, such as ErrorException, RuntimeException, or Exception in a library or framework, it forces consumers to catch all exceptions, including unknown exceptions that they do not know how to handle.
Instead, either throw a subtype that already exists in the Standard PHP Library, or create your own type that derives from Exception.
Noncompliant Code Example
throw new Exception(); // Noncompliant
Compliant Solution
throw new InvalidArgumentException(); // or throw new UnexpectedValueException();
