    <rule ref="HardMode"/>
</ruleset>

Advanced configuration

Check out the PHP CodeSniffer documentation for all the options. You will find below documentation for common scenarios.

To exclude some files from the analysis:

<exclude-pattern>tests/Fixtures</exclude-pattern>

On large projects you may want to use PHP CodeSniffer's cache:

<arg name="cache" value=".phpcs-cache"/>

Remember to add .phpcs-cache to .gitignore.
