title: PHPUnit and Extended Classes
body: <p>I am curious, I have a base class - called <code>Base</code> and a controller class called  - <code>Controller</code> - apparently you cannot test controller - in netbeans - because it cannot find Base class.</p>
  
  <pre><code>class Controller extends Base{}
  class Base{}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>netbeans will generate tests for Base but not for controller. Is this because A) every test must extend PHP unit and B) if you test the logic in Base and everything passes it's safe to assume that controller will too? - seems rather untrustworthy.</p>
  
  <p>What does one do in this situation?</p>
