Unit testing error issue with Doctrine PHP

I am trying to unit test my models using Doctrine. I have followed the examples on the Doctrine website however because I am integrating with Zend Framework 1.10, I need to tweak it slightly i.e. custom bootstrap that contains some from Zend Framework & some from Doctrine.

The error I am getting is...

Code:

Unexpected PDOException thrown in [Default_Model_BrowserTest] with message [could not find driver] in /var/www/vhosts/realbrowser.svn/trunk/library/Doctrine-1.2.1/tests/DoctrineTest/Doctrine_UnitTestCase.php on line 138

However I am able to get data out of the database so there is a connection and I am using MySQL not PDO.

Solution

Looking through the Doctrine library code, I realised that it is taking the driver for the database out of the class name, the 3rd element of the class name to be exact.

So I renamed my class from Default_Model_BrowserTest to Default_Model_Mysql_BrowserTest and it worked

Whooohooo hope that helps others and wont waste many hours like I did.
