PHPUnit is giving me autoload.php not found exception

Question

UPDATE

I've fixed the problem, It was all about the right permissions in app/cache and app/logs.

When I try to run PHPUnit in symfony2, Using this command phpunit -c app/ i get this huge error message:

PHPUnit 3.7.28 by Sebastian Bergmann.

Configuration read from /var/www/task/app/phpunit.xml.dist

<?php

if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.4', '>=') && gc_enabled()) {
    // Disabling Zend Garbage Collection to prevent segfaults with PHP5.4+

    gc_disable();
}

$loader = require_once __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';

use Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationRegistry;

AnnotationRegistry::registerLoader(array($loader, 'loadClass'));

return $loader;

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm stuck in this error for like 4 hours.

Answer 1

UPDATE

I've fixed the problem, It was all about the right permissions in app/cache and app/logs.

sudo chmod -R 777 app/cache
sudo chmod -R 777 app/logs

Answer 2

This error message also occurs if you are not careful enough when auto-importing use statements with your IDE. That said, importing

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Tests\Functional\WebTestCase;

by mistake instead of

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

causes the same error.

Answer 3

It looks like you forgot to install your vendors. To do that execute composer update (you need Composer for this). After that, you can execute the tests and use your app.
