spec-gen - phpspec extension for better code generation

PhpSpec is a test framework that empowers those who use TDD. It can bootstrap a test for you, then once you’ve written the test it will bootstrap the related code for you. But we can go further. In this lightning talk, we get to know spec-gen, a phpspec extension that takes code generation to the next level.

29. Improvement #1 argument type hints @epiloic 29
30. Improvement #2 argument names @epiloic 30
31. Improvement #3 dependency injection @epiloic 31
32. bootstrapped by spec-gen
33. what's next? @epiloic 33
34. return type hints spec-gen v0.8 @epiloic 34
35. method body? copy test, paste in code and adapt @epiloic 35
