Code Inspection: Missing visibility

Reports the properties, constants, and methods that are declared without visibility definition.

According to PSR-12, visibility MUST be defined on:

  • All properties,

  • All constants if your project's PHP minimum version supports constant visibilities (PHP 7.1 or later),

  • All methods.



See PSR-12: Extended Coding Style (php-fig.org) for details.
