You know you see a badly formated code when you see it.
But there are several good formating styles and choosing one is (if
you are lucky) just a matter of personal taste or (if not so lucky) a
matter of coding style in your company.
But there is not one provably best style.

This is very close to how I would format it.
Just two unimportant notes.
1) I would (if I cared about formating, which I sometimes forget) put
a space after the = in
$value = 1;
2) I'd probably use
$testus = 6 if $testus == 2;
or
$testus = 6
if $testus == 2;
(I guess the single = in the condition was a typo :)

There is a reason for living. There must be. I've seen it somewhere.
It's just that in the mess on my table ... and in my brain.
I can't find it.
