Unable to run unit tests in PHPStorm's IDE

Question

When I run vendor/bin/phpunit my tests all run successfully. However, when I right click on a tests file and click "Run tests" I end up seeing:

/usr/local/bin/php -dxdebug.coverage_enable=1 /private/var/folders/bj/t2w187x158g7rgghctgknwb80000gn/T/ide-phpunit.php --coverage-clover /Users/bkuhl/Library/Caches/WebIde70/coverage/services$tests.coverage --no-configuration /Users/bkuhl/Projects/myproject/services/app/tests Testing started at 3:09 PM ...

I have PHPStorm configured to use path/to/vendor/autoload.php

I've temporarily changed the path of this directory for the purpose of this screenshot, but it is a perfectly valid path.

Has anyone run into issues using PHPStorm's ability to run your tests?

composer.json:

"require-dev": {     "way/generators": "dev-master",     "way/laravel-test-helpers": "dev-master",     "mockery/mockery": "*",     "codeception/aspect-mock": "*",     "phpunit/phpunit": "3.9.*@dev" }, 

Answer 1

PhpStorm uses wrapper/helper script when executing PHPUnit tests (for integration purposes: monitor execution progress, stack trace etc).

At the moment that helper script does not support PHPUnit 3.8 or 3.9 -- only 3.7 and below.

Corresponding ticket: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-21666 -- watch it (star/vote/comment) to get notified when it will be resolved.

P.S.
This issue is now fixed and fix will be available in next public EAP build (newer than current 134.1456).

Answer 2

Another solution: Set

"phpunit/phpunit": "3.7" 

in composer.json

and run

composer update  

Then the issue will be resolved.

this worked for me also...
