PHPUnit Extension warning in Yii - unit-testing

Question

I am setting up unit testing to work with the Yii framework. Apart from Yii, my PHPUnit works great. But along with Yii when I try to test it, it gives me the following warning every time.
Warning: include(PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase.php): failed to open stream:
No such file or directory in D:\xampp\htdocs\yii1112\framework\YiiBase.php on li
ne 423
Warning: include(): Failed opening 'PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase.php' for i
nclusion (include_path='.;D:\xampp\htdocs\sms_dev\protected\extensions\yii-mail;
D:\xampp\htdocs\sms_dev\protected\extensions\giix-components;D:\xampp\htdocs\sms
_dev\protected\components;D:\xampp\htdocs\sms_dev\protected\models;D:\xampp\php\
PEAR') in D:\xampp\htdocs\yii1112\framework\YiiBase.php on line 423
I have searched a lot and have also asked in the Yii forum, but nothing seems to be working out.
Does anyone have any idea what this warning means? How can I get rid of it?

Answer 1

The file PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase.php is part of the package PHPUnit_Story, which can be installed with:
pear install phpunit/PHPUnit_Story
See also: PHPUnit can't find PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase. What package is missing?

Answer 2

The protected/tests directory is not in your include path. I would suggest moving your protected directory from any public location, and just add the protected folder to the include path. so d:\xampp\htdocs\sms_dev\protected\ instead of listing each directory seperately.
Either this is the problem or the file doesn't exist and you have to check your code.

Answer 3

With pear install dependencies [ Now pear packages are not updated better install with composer ]
sudo pear channel-discover pear.phpunit.de
sudo pear install phpunit/PHPUnit_Story
sudo pear install phpunit/PHP_Selenium
Better if you install phpunit with composer these errors will not come
step 1:
Create a composer.json file in your project root:
{
"require-dev": {
"phpunit/phpunit": "4.6.*",
"phpunit/phpunit-selenium": ">=1.4",
"phpunit/dbunit": ">=1.3",
"phpunit/phpunit-story": "*",
"phpunit/php-invoker": "*"
},
"autoload": {
"psr-0": {"": "src"}
},
"config": {
"bin-dir": "bin/"
}
}
step 2:
Install composer into your project using:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Ensure composer is executable:
chmod +x composer.phar
Let composer install the dependencies:
./composer.phar install --dev
Check you have a project specific phpunit version installed:
bin/phpunit --version
the above specified is a softlink
ls -la bin/phpunit
bin/phpunit -> ../vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit
Afterwords you can make softlink of 'phpunit' from vendor directory into directory of php in use.
This will remove all warnings related to
PHP Warning: include(classes/PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase.php)
PHP Warning: include(): Failed opening 'classes/PHPUnit_Extensions_Story_TestCase.php'
PHP Warning: include(classes/Composer\Autoload\ClassLoader.php)
