## 🛠️ Migration Changes

### 1. Configuration Updates

#### ✅ phpunit.xml Schema Update
```xml
<!-- BEFORE -->
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://schema.phpunit.de/12.0/phpunit.xsd"

<!-- AFTER -->
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://schema.phpunit.de/12.3/phpunit.xsd"
```

#### ✅ Bootstrap File Creation
- **New**: `tests/bootstrap.php` 
- **Features**: Autoloading, test environment setup, utility functions
- **Configuration**: SQLite in-memory database for testing

### 2. Test File Modernization

#### ✅ PSR-4 Namespace Implementation
All test files now use proper PSR-4 namespacing:
```php
<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace DeskMoloni\Tests;

use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
```

#### ✅ Files Updated:
1. `tests/ClientPortalTest.php` - ✅ Namespace + strict types
2. `tests/ClientSyncServiceTest.php` - ✅ Namespace + strict types  
3. `tests/IntegrationTest.php` - ✅ Namespace + strict types
4. `tests/QueueProcessorTest.php` - ✅ Namespace + strict types
5. `tests/TestCase.php` - ✅ Namespace + strict types

### 3. Dependency Management

#### ✅ Composer Configuration
```json
{
  "require-dev": {
    "phpunit/phpunit": "^12.0"
  },
  "require": {
    "php": "^8.3"
  }
}
```

#### ✅ Autoloading Compliance
Fixed PSR-4 compliance warnings during composer install.

## 🔧 Technical Improvements

### Modern PHP Features
- **Strict Types**: All test files now use `declare(strict_types=1)`
- **Type Declarations**: Improved type safety throughout test suite
- **Modern Assertions**: Compatible with PHPUnit 12.x assertion methods

### Testing Environment
- **Bootstrap**: Comprehensive test environment initialization
- **Autoloading**: Both Composer and manual fallback autoloading
- **Database**: SQLite in-memory testing database
- **Configuration**: Environment variables and constants setup

### Code Quality
- **Syntax Clean**: All PHP files pass syntax validation
- **Namespace Clean**: No PSR-4 autoloading violations
- **Structure Clean**: Organized test directory structure
