php - phpunit setup not picking up replacement version

Question

i'm trying to change phpunit version to 3.5 following this tutorial http://dustyreagan.com/downgrade-phpunit-3-6-to-3-5-15/

the correct files seem to be installed but i get errors like these

root@gerard:/home/gerard/sites/zf# phpunit /var/www/tests/unittests.php

PHPUnit 3.7.24 by Sebastian Bergmann.

.PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method RemoteConnectTest::hasPerformedExpectationsOnOutput() in phar:///usr/local/bin/phpunit/PHPUnit/TextUI/ResultPrinter.php on line 628

&&

root@gerard:/home/gerard/sites/zf# phpunit --version

PHPUnit 3.7.24 by Sebastian Bergmann.

// shows wrong version

the proper files all seem to be installed at /usr/share/php/PHPUnit the version shown in /usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Runner/Version.php is 'PHPUnit 3.5.15 by Sebastian Bergmann.'

thanks

You might need to update the phpunit binary PATH. You can check the path for this command by doing:

which phpunit

If it is pointing to the 3.7 folder, changing it to the 3.5 folder should resolve the issue.

If that doesn't work then remove both versions and reinstall 3.5 with all the correct dependencies. I have had similar issues in the past and it is much quicker to remove it and start from scratch.
