Running the unit tests with a phpunit config file breaks the test suite

[jrfnl]

Running the unit tests with a custom phpunit config file like:
phpunit -c customphpunit.xml

breaks the unit test suite quite badly (sniffs can no longer be tested) with the following backtrace:

PHP_CodeSniffer\Exceptions\RuntimeException: ERROR: unable to get value of property "values"

PHP_CodeSniffer\src\Config.php:183
PHP_CodeSniffer\src\Config.php:638
PHP_CodeSniffer\src\Config.php:414
PHP_CodeSniffer\src\Config.php:324
PHP_CodeSniffer\tests\Standards\AbstractSniffUnitTest.php:134
PHP_CodeSniffer\tests\TestSuite.php:26

Some light debugging shows that the Config::processShortArgument() method chokes on the -c.

This used to work fine with PHPCS 2.x

The code to handle unknown CLI args didn't work in 3.0 due to some extra checks. I've added a specific setting unknown to store all the unknown args when they are being ignored (like during unit testing).

Thanks for reporting this.

Thanks for the quick fix!

@gsherwood : Any idea when 3.0.1 would be released ? Just to know if we can include the upgrade PHPCS to 3.x in the PHPCompatibility 7.1.5 release or we need to wait for 7.1.6.

@wimg I'm aiming for next week. Just finished up the last few things yesterday.
