The [PHPCompatibility](https://github.com/wimg/PHPCompatibility) sniffs are designed to analyse your code for cross-PHP version compatibility.
Install it as a separate ruleset and either run it separately against your code or add it to your custom ruleset.

Whichever way you run it, do make sure you set the `testVersion` to run the sniffs against. The `testVersion` determines for which PHP versions you will received compatibility information. The recommended setting for this at this moment is `5.2-7.1` to support the same PHP versions as WordPress Core supports.

For more information about setting the `testVersion`, see:
* [PHPCompatibility: Using the compatibility sniffs](https://github.com/wimg/PHPCompatibility#using-the-compatibility-sniffs)
