As part of this commitment to compatibility, WooCommerce Custom Orders Table also targets PHP 5.2 as a minimum PHP version for the core plugin files (with the exception of the `WooCommerce_Custom_Orders_Table_CLI` class, which uses the WP-CLI minimum of PHP 5.3). The `tests/` directory, however, is accepting of modern (7.x) PHP.
