PHPUnit's
createMock()
will return an object that extends the mocked type and implementsMockObject
at the same time. The accurate way to document this is an intersection type, but we often document a union type instead. This declaration is too wide because virtally any mock object would pass it.This might look nit-picking now, but it will become more important later when we try to infer native types from the docblock types in an automated manner.
