 > @SergeyBiryukov FYI: The requirement will be raised to `5.7.21` in the
 polyfills patch anyway, so we could just wait a little for that patch to
 land before those two assertion change patches get committed ?

 Both the `53363-02-use-assertfileisreadable.patch` and the `53363-03-use-
 assertdirectoryexists.patch` changes are now unblocked after the commits
 made for #47381, which raised the minimum PHPUnit version to 5.7.x as the
 assertion functions being introduced in those patches are available since
 PHPUnit 5.6.0.
