PHPUnit + Symfony does nothing

I just installed PHPUnit on OS X + MAMP. (My phpunit was installed in my MAMP folder, so I copied it to /usr/bin because I couldn't use the "phpunit" command in terminal without the path)

New Symfony folder

When I go to a new Symfony2 folder and I try phpunit -c App/the tests start and I get a green confirmation that all tests passed. 

PHPUnit 3.7.8 by Sebastian Bergmann.

Configuration read from     
/Users/username/Dropbox/www/symfonydev/Symfony/App/phpunit.xml.dist
.
Time: 0 seconds, Memory: 15.50Mb
OK (1 test, 1 assertion)


Own symfony website

But when I go to my own little Symfony2 project and execute the same command, nothing happens! He doesn't even load the phpunit.xml.dist. I get no output at all on my terminal window.

The test file, however, does exist and is readable, I can start it by explicitly specifying it on the command line of phpunit:

phpunit -c app/ src/MatchTracker/Bundle/Tests/Controller/AuthenticationControllerTest.phpand this works.

It seems that something is wrong with the phpunit.xml.dist. It's the default phpunit.xml.dist and I tried renaming it to phpunit.xml. But nothing happens. What could be the problem? I think he can't find my xml or use it, or maybe he can read the phpunit.xml but doesn't find my tests.

Here's an example from my terminal: You see that the phpunit command doesn't do anything, except when I specify the test file...

MacBook-Pro:www username$ ls
LICENSE     app     composer.json   composer.lock   composer.phar   src     vendor      web
MacBook-Pro:www username$ ls app/
AppCache.php        SymfonyRequirements.php cache           console         phpunit.xml.dist
AppKernel.php       autoload.php        check.php       logs
Resources       bootstrap.php.cache config          phpunit.xml

What's in your phpunit.xml? <testsuites> section of this file tells phpunit which directories scan for tests.

Remember that phpunit.xml overwrites phpunit.xml.dist.

Look at the original phpunit.xml.dist file and either remove the phpunit.xml or start by copying phpunit.xml.dist into phpunit.xml.
