https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/1292
1) We have a [nice, short & concise contrib
guide](http://thrift.apache.org/docs/HowToContribute) that covers all the
formalities
2) We also have a [test
suite](https://github.com/apache/thrift/tree/master/test) that may be helpful
with testing this. It is also run through the pre-commit checks. If you feel
additional specific tests should be added, these are usually placed somewhere
under [`/lib/php`](https://github.com/apache/thrift/tree/master/lib/php/test)
