Thanks! After I have analyzed that the half of those packages are need to use a
pear (run-tests) instead of phpunit:
   php-config, php-console-table, php-mail, php-xml-parser, php-log,
   php-net-smtp , php-mail-mime

By default, PHPUnit will install an error handler that converts the following
errors to exceptions:

 E_WARNING, E_NOTICE, E_USER_ERROR, E_USER_WARNING, E_USER_NOTICE,
 E_STRICT,E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR, E_DEPRECATED, E_USER_DEPRECATED
