I've just installed phpunit via pear in a mac osx 10.7 and everything works fine except I got memory limit errors (xdebug enabled for reports).
I tried to add the -d memory_limit=512M parameter to phpunit but it is not applying because, on the very first error, I added var_dump(ini_get('memory_limit')); exit; and it prints string(3) "32M"
So, why is it not being applied?
Besides that, if I run
php -d memory_limit=256M -r "echo ini_get('memory_limit');" it echoes "256M"
Is it possible that phpunit is not executing same php?

The default memory limit is 256M and this is usually more than sufficient for most needs. If you need to raise this limit, you must create a phprc file.
The PHP memory_limit is the maximum amount of server memory that each PHP script is allowed to consume. Per the PHP documentation: “This sets the maximum amount of memory in bytes that a script is allowed to allocate. This helps prevent poorly written scripts from eating up all available memory on a server.”
To increase the PHP memory limit setting, edit your PHP. ini file. Increase the default value (example: Maximum amount of memory a script may consume = 128MB) of the PHP memory limit line in php. ini.
Yes you can set every php option with phpunit -d that can be set with ini_set.
You already opened a bug over in the phpunit bug tracker but well I'm going for the more verbose answer here
Reproduce to show it works in general:
echo "<?php var_dump(ini_get('memory_limit')); " > foo.php phpunit -d memory_limit=12M --bootstrap foo.php Produces:
string(3) "12M" PHPUnit 3.6.5 by Sebastian Bergmann. But phpunit only applies this option once before the first test is run!
So chances are your code is somewhere changing the memory limit back to 32M which is something phpunit can't "fix".
Same goes for setting the memory limit in the phpunit.xml file.
