 If the tests are failing then indeed these should be fixed. That said PHP
 5.6 is still 'beta' and a flexible, not rigid, test resulst for PHP 5.6
 should not reflect the pass/fail Travis CI build status of BuddyPress.

 In the attached patch I updated it for testing WordPress /trunk

 It could be easily set also include 3.7.x, 3.8.x, 3.9.x and /trunk within
 the `allow_failures` section of the config.

 Travis CI docs here http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/build-configuration
 /#Rows-That-are-Allowed-To-Fail
 > You can also define rows that are allowed to fail in the build matrix.
 Allowed failures are items in your build matrix that are allowed to fail
 without causing the entire build to be shown as failed. This lets you add
 in experimental and preparatory builds to test against versions or
 configurations that you are not ready to officially support.
