Redundant Boolean literals should be removed from expressions to improve readability.

Noncompliant Code Example

if ($booleanVariable == true) { /* ... */ }
if ($booleanVariable != true) { /* ... */ }
if ($booleanVariable || false) { /* ... */ }
doSomething(!false);

Compliant Solution

if ($booleanVariable) { /* ... */ }
if (!$booleanVariable) { /* ... */ }
if ($booleanVariable) { /* ... */ }
doSomething(true);

Exceptions

The use of literal booleans in comparisons which use identity operators (=== and !==) are ignored.
