Question

I have my PHPUnit setup and coverage report working fine without a white list filter. Once I add one however, the report seems to only partially generate as if PHPUnit quit unexpectedly. I do not get any errors or warnings.

My configuratoon looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<phpunit bootstrap="./bootstrap.php"
         colors="true">
    <testsuites>
        <testsuite name="...">
            <testsuite name="...">
                <directory>./path/to/suite</directory>
            </testsuite>
            <testsuite name="...">
                <directory>./path/to/suite2</directory>
            </testsuite>
            <testsuite name="...">
                <directory>./path/to/suite3</directory>
            </testsuite>
        </testsuite>
    </testsuites>

    <filter>
        <whitelist>
            <directory suffix=".php">../path/to/files</directory>
        </whitelist>
    </filter>

    <logging>
        <log type="coverage-html" target="log/" charset="UTF-8" yui="true" />
    </logging>
</phpunit>

Any idea on what could be going wrong?

Turns out there was some script halting procedural code in the files I was white listing.
