Test with dependencies and data provider fails

[adimwiesem]

Q	A
PHPUnit version	11.5.2
PHP version	8.2.18
Installation Method	Composer

Summary

This is a follow-up to #5827 which was closed for a specific case ("mixture of associative and non-associative arrays") but the originally reported issue wasn't answered.

Current behavior

Test cases having both a dependency and a data provider don't work anymore in PHPUnit 11 using the attribute syntax. The same specification worked fine in PHPUnit 10 using the annotation syntax.

How to reproduce

Here's a minimal example with two test functions. The second one depends on the first one and uses a data provider. Running the test yields this error:

1) dependencyTest::testTwo with data set "case 1" ('')
Error: Cannot use positional argument after named argument during unpacking

Code example:

<?php

class dependencyTest extends \PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase
{
    public function testOne(): void
    {
        $this->assertEmpty([]);
    }

    #[\PHPUnit\Framework\Attributes\Depends('testOne')]
    #[\PHPUnit\Framework\Attributes\DataProvider('dataProvider')]
    public function testTwo(string $example): void
    {
        $this->assertEmpty($example);
    }

    public static function dataProvider(): array
    {
        return [
            'case 1' => [
                'example' => ''
            ]
        ];
    }
}

Expected behavior

I'd expect this to work because the data provider uses an associative array, i.e. the (single) argument IS a named one.
(Note: If I remove the dependency specification, the test runs successfully.)
