      1/ execute phpunit tests
      2/ create a new script with following code and verify the error log output looks nice

      <?php
      		 
      define('NO_DEBUG_DISPLAY', 1);
      		 
      require('config.php');
      		 
      debugging('grrr');
      		 
      die;

      Debugging calls in those scripts do not generate any output, and using error_log() instead is not appropriate as they cannot be unit tested.

      We need to be able to see the output somehow, somewhere for those call to have more value than just being unit testable.
