phpunit throws Uncaught exception 'PHPUnit_Fra

Question

I have a Zend Framework project, and want to using unit testing to test it.

In tests folder, I have the phpunit.xml as following;

<phpunit bootstrap="./application/bootstrap.php" colors="true">
<testsuite name="Application Test Suite">
    <directory>./</directory>
</testsuite>

<filter>
    <whitelist>
        <directory suffix=".php">../application/</directory>
        <exclude>
            <directory suffix=".phtml">../application/</directory>
            <file>../application/Bootstrap.php</file>
            <file>../application/controllers/ErrorController.php</file>
        </exclude>
    </whitelist>
</filter>

<logging>
    <log type="coverage-html" target="./log/reprot" charset="UTP-8"
    yui="true" highlight = "true" lowUpoerBound="50" highLowerBound="80"/>
    <log type="textdox" target="./log/testdox.html" />
</logging>

And I have bootstrap.php in /tests/application folder as follows:

    <?php
error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);

// Define path to application directory
defined('APPLICATION_PATH')
    || define('APPLICATION_PATH', realpath(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../../application'));

// Define application environment
defined('APPLICATION_ENV')
    || define('APPLICATION_ENV', (getenv('APPLICATION_ENV') ? getenv('APPLICATION_ENV') : 'testing'));

// Ensure library/ is on include_path
set_include_path(implode(PATH_SEPARATOR, array(
    realpath(APPLICATION_PATH . '/../library'),
    get_include_path(),
)));

require_once 'Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php';

require_once 'controllers/ControllerTestCase.php';
Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();

when I go to the command line, run the following command

phpunit --configuration phpunit.xml

it throws the exception:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'PHPUnit_Framework_Exception' with message
'Neither "Application Test Suite.php" nor "Application Test Suite.php" could be
opened.' in D:\PHP\php5\PEAR\PHPUnit\Util\Skeleton\Test.php:102

How could I fix it?

Answer 1

Youll notice its throwing the exception because its looking for a file named the same as the name you provided for your test suite. You need to actually write a test suite and then supply the name of that test suite to your config: http://www.phpunit.de/manual/3.2/en/organizing-test-suites.html

Answer 2

I noticed that you're not using the <testsuites> which contains multiple occurences of <testsuite>.

Here is my phpunit.xml which works fine for Zend Framework projects:

<testsuites>
  <testsuite name="UnitTests">
    <directory>./library</directory>
  </testsuite>
  <testsuite name="ApplicationTests">
    <directory>./application</directory>
  </testsuite>
</testsuites>

Answer 3

I was having the same problem with the same setup. From what I understand, more recent versions of PHPUnit require at least one actual test to run properly. After creating a simple test, it worked.

myProject/tests/application/DemoTest.php

<?php
class DemoTest extends ControllerTestCase
{
    public function setUp() {
        parent::setUp();
    }

    public function testCanDoUnitTest() {
        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }
}
