I just released #PHPUnit 13.1.

As always when I publish a new release, I feel the weight of maintainership on my shoulders.

Because I know that every new version of PHPUnit gets installed hundreds or thousands of times within minutes, and millions of people rely on it to test their software reliably.

And even though I am always very careful, personally review every change in PHPUnit, and run extensive automated tests, both static and dynamic, there is always a bit of fear that I got something wrong.

Something that becomes a problem for others.

This responsibility is mine to carry, and I carry it gladly.

Those who financially support my Open Source work through sponsorship are not paying for software: they are valuing the responsibility I take on.

Thank you to everyone who already supports me!

Your support allows me to dedicate focused time to the project instead of fitting it around evenings and weekends.

If PHPUnit is part of your workflow, I would like to ask for that support:
