- Refactored fallback submission logic in `class-event-handler.php` to remove `wp_die`/`exit` calls and use redirects for error handling, enabling proper unit testing. - Implemented meta-data saving (dates, venue, organizer) in the fallback logic using `update_post_meta`. - Updated unit tests (`test-event-management.php`) to remove `markTestIncomplete` calls related to handler errors and uncommented meta assertions. Unit tests for fallback logic now pass. - Added Instructions section and Return to Dashboard button to the event form shortcode (`display_event_form_shortcode`). - Applied basic theme styling classes (`ast-container`, `notice`, `ast-button`) to the event form. - Updated `docs/implementation_plan.md` to reflect completion of tasks 4.1-4.5 and set focus to Task 5. Refs: Task 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5

	This is the PHP port of Hamcrest Matchers
Hamcrest is a matching library originally written for Java, but subsequently ported to many other languages. hamcrest-php is the official PHP port of Hamcrest and essentially follows a literal translation of the original Java API for Hamcrest, with a few Exceptions, mostly down to PHP language barriers:
- 
instanceOf($theClass)is actuallyanInstanceOf($theClass)
- 
both(containsString('a'))->and(containsString('b'))is actuallyboth(containsString('a'))->andAlso(containsString('b'))
- 
either(containsString('a'))->or(containsString('b'))is actuallyeither(containsString('a'))->orElse(containsString('b'))
- 
Unless it would be non-semantic for a matcher to do so, hamcrest-php allows dynamic typing for it's input, in "the PHP way". Exception are where semantics surrounding the type itself would suggest otherwise, such as stringContains() and greaterThan(). 
- 
Several official matchers have not been ported because they don't make sense or don't apply in PHP: - typeCompatibleWith($theClass)
- eventFrom($source)
- hasProperty($name)**
- samePropertyValuesAs($obj)**
 
- 
When most of the collections matchers are finally ported, PHP-specific aliases will probably be created due to a difference in naming conventions between Java's Arrays, Collections, Sets and Maps compared with PHP's Arrays. 
** [Unless we consider POPO's (Plain Old PHP Objects) akin to JavaBeans] - The POPO thing is a joke. Java devs coin the term POJO's (Plain Old Java Objects).
Usage
Hamcrest matchers are easy to use as:
Hamcrest_MatcherAssert::assertThat('a', Hamcrest_Matchers::equalToIgnoringCase('A'));
Alternatively, you can use the global proxy-functions:
$result = true;
// with an identifier
assertThat("result should be true", $result, equalTo(true));
// without an identifier
assertThat($result, equalTo(true));
// evaluate a boolean expression
assertThat($result === true);
// with syntactic sugar is()
assertThat(true, is(true));
⚠️ NOTE: the global proxy-functions aren't autoloaded by default, so you will need to load them first:
\Hamcrest\Util::registerGlobalFunctions();
For brevity, all of the examples below use the proxy-functions.
Documentation
A tutorial can be found on the Hamcrest site.
Available Matchers
Array
- anArray- evaluates an array
assertThat([], anArray());

$item = 4;
assertThat($list, hasItemInArray($item));
- 
hasValue- alias of hasItemInArray
- 
arrayContainingInAnyOrder- check if array contains elements in any order
assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContainingInAnyOrder([6, 4, 2]));
assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContainingInAnyOrder([4, 2, 6]));
- 
containsInAnyOrder- alias of arrayContainingInAnyOrder
- 
arrayContaining- An array with elements that match the given matchers in the same order.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContaining([2, 4, 6]));
assertthat([2, 4, 6], not(arrayContaining([6, 4, 2])));
- contains- check array in same order
assertThat([2, 4, 6], contains([2, 4, 6]));
- hasKeyInArray- check if array has given key
assertThat(['name'=> 'foobar'], hasKeyInArray('name'));
- 
hasKey- alias of hasKeyInArray
- 
hasKeyValuePair- check if arary has given key, value pair
assertThat(['name'=> 'foobar'], hasKeyValuePair('name', 'foobar'));
- 
hasEntry- same as hasKeyValuePair
- 
arrayWithSize- check array has given size
assertthat([2, 4, 6], arrayWithSize(3));
- emptyArray- check if array is emtpy
assertThat([], emptyArray());
- nonEmptyArray
assertThat([1], nonEmptyArray());
Collection
- emptyTraversable- check if traversable is empty
$empty_it = new EmptyIterator;
assertThat($empty_it, emptyTraversable());
- nonEmptyTraversable- check if traversable isn't empty
$non_empty_it = new ArrayIterator(range(1, 10));
assertThat($non_empty_it, nonEmptyTraversable());
a
- traversableWithSize
$non_empty_it = new ArrayIterator(range(1, 10));
assertThat($non_empty_it, traversableWithSize(count(range(1, 10))));
`
Core
- allOf- Evaluates to true only if ALL of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2,4,6], allOf(hasValue(2), arrayWithSize(3)));
- anyOf- Evaluates to true if ANY of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], anyOf(hasValue(8), hasValue(2)));
- noneOf- Evaluates to false if ANY of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], noneOf(hasValue(1), hasValue(3)));
- both+- andAlso- This is useful for fluently combining matchers that must both pass.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], both(hasValue(2))->andAlso(hasValue(4)));
- either+- orElse- This is useful for fluently combining matchers where either may pass,
assertThat([2, 4, 6], either(hasValue(2))->orElse(hasValue(4)));
- describedAs- Wraps an existing matcher and overrides the description when it fails.
$expected = "Dog";
$found = null;
// this assertion would result error message as Expected: is not null but: was null
//assertThat("Expected {$expected}, got {$found}", $found, is(notNullValue()));
// and this assertion would result error message as Expected: Dog but: was null
//assertThat($found, describedAs($expected, notNullValue()));
- everyItem- A matcher to apply to every element in an array.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], everyItem(notNullValue()));
- hasItem- check array has given item, it can take a matcher argument
assertThat([2, 4, 6], hasItem(equalTo(2)));
