Hello,
That's great job! I am glad to see that all tests are passing on the latest PHP nightly build. Is anybody aware of any code that might behave differently when using the new phpng engine? See link [1], sections: "Incompatibilities" and "Known Problems".
Best regards, Dan Ungureanu

Hello,
In about two months, the first PHP 7 release candidate will be delivered [1] and by then, I think that phpMyAdmin should be able to run on this
new
version without any problems. At this moment, some tests fail on the
latest
PHP nightly build because of the libraries phpMyAdmin uses.
Looking through the `libraries` folder I realized that most of those libraries have not been updated for a long time. I consider it a priority to update the broken libraries, but other libraries would benefit from an update as well.
- bfShapeFiles - Causes some tests to fail (uses old-style
constructors).
Project is no longer maintained. [2]
- php-gettext - Causes some tests to fail (uses old-style constructors).
Project is no longer maintained. [3]
- phpseclib - Works fine. Project is maintained and a new version is
available. [4]
- tcpdf - Works fine. Project is maintained and a new version is
available. [5]
- recaptcha - Works fine. Project is maintained and a new version is
available. [6]
Meanwhile I have fixed bfShapeFiles and php-gettext in our repository, and tested under PHP 7.0.0-dev.
Those libraries that are not maintained anymore will require forking and very little maintenance to get them working with the latest PHP version.
Another suggestion I have is to use Composer for managing these dependencies, instead of adding them directly to phpMyAdmin's repository. This way, it will be much easier to update those libraries and keep the repository clean.
Best regards, Dan Ungureanu
