Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"51565" 51565]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="51565"
 Tests: Replace `assertRegExp()` with `assertMatchesRegularExpression()`.

 The `assertRegExp()` and `assertNotRegExp()` methods were hard deprecated
 in PHPUnit 9.1 and the functionality will be removed in PHPUnit 10.0.

 The `assertMatchesRegularExpression()` and
 `assertDoesNotMatchRegularExpression()` methods were introduced as a
 replacement in PHPUnit 9.1.

 These new PHPUnit methods are polyfilled by the PHPUnit Polyfills and
 switching to them will future-proof the tests some more.
