You need to have a getDataSet() method otherwise PHPUnit assumes you have no data to fixturize.

http://www.phpunit.de/manual/3.6/en/database.html

The getDataSet() method defines how the initial state of the database should look before each test is executed. The state of a database is abstracted through the concepts DataSet and DataTable both being represented by the interfaces PHPUnit_Extensions_Database_DataSet_IDataSet and PHPUnit_Extensions_Database_DataSet_IDataTable. The next section will describe in detail how these concepts work and what the benefits are for using them in database testing.

 

For the implementation we only need to know that the getDataSet() method is called once during setUp() to retrieve the fixture data-set and insert it into the database. In the example we are using a factory method createFlatXMLDataSet($filename) that represents a data-set through an XML representation.
