Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"51605" 51605]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="51605"
 Build/Test Tools: Hard deprecate
 `WP_UnitTestCase_Base::checkRequirements()`.

 The `WP_UnitTestCase_Base::checkRequirements()` method calls the
 `parent::checkRequirements()` method, but this method became `private` in
 PHPUnit 7.0 via commit
 [https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/commit/932238a6a3018cdfac6c2a7d8f1d5d49e65f5dc0
 sebastianbergmann/phpunit at 932238a].

 Aside from that, the `TestCase::getAnnotations()` method which is called
 next is now also removed in PHPUnit 9.5.

 WP core does not use the method anymore, and the method only remains to
 prevent potentially breaking external integration tests relying on the
 method. However, in effect, the method is not functional anymore in
 PHPUnit 7.0+.

 Follow-up to [893/tests], [894/tests], [896/tests], [918/tests], [30526],
 [40520], [40564], [43005], [44701], [51559-51577].

 Props jrf.
 See #46149.
