#### 2.2.7

* **Config validation** with `codecept config:validate` command. Use it:

  Annotations can be parsed from line or block comments. `$scenario->skip()` and `$scenario->incomplete()` are still valid and can be executed inside conditional statements:
  ```
  if (!extension_loaded('xdebug')) $scenario->skip('Xdebug required')
  ```
* **PSR-4**: all support classes moved to `tests/_support` by default. Actors, Helpers, PageObjects, StepObjects, GroupObjects to follow PSR-4 naming style. Autoloader implemented by @splinter89.

* **Dependencies**: module can explicitly define dependencies and expect their injection by implementing `_inject` and `_depends` methods and relying on dependency injection container.
