We use Robo for releases.

using assert for expectations

Peridot sets ASSERT_CALLBACK via assert_options in order to throw exceptions when using the native assert function. Peridot specs are considered passing if they don't throw an exception; if you are using assert for expectations and you find your specs are triggering false positives, you may need to update zend.assertions to 1 in your php.ini. This is set to -1 by default in PHP 7+

If you aren't too keen on using assert for testing, there are a ton of assertion/expectation libraries out there. Anything that throws exceptions in response to a failed assertion will do. The peridot-php org has authored Leo, and this library offers a richer assertion vocabulary for testing.
