I am getting this exception when trying to run my PHP unit tests:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function openssl_random_pseudo_bytes()
What does it mean?

I had the same issue. I solved it by editing my php.ini file - changing ;extension=php_openssl.dll to extension=php_openssl.dll .
(For my installation, my php.ini file was located in my P:\Program Files\EasyPHP-12.1\conf_files\ directory.)

Your version of PHP wasn't compiled with the openssl module. If you are building from source, add the module like so:
cd /path/to/php-5.4/
./configure --with-openssl

It means you do not have the openssl extension enabled in your PHP install. It needs to be enabled for you to use openssl_* functions.

It means you possibly don't have openssl enabled.
If you are on windows its even easier to load it. Enable it from wamp icon on system tray.

Check your configuration php.ini:
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
; http://php.net/extension-dir
;extension_dir = "./"
; On windows:
extension_dir = "ext"
extension=php_openssl.dll

Your php installation either does not have openssl enabled, or you could be running a version of php < 5.3.
To enable openssl, you must re-compile and install php with the "–with-openssl" flag. See php installation documentation

For me this error occurred because i had not configured openssl correctly for my PHP. This is the exact step i followed to rectify this error. https://stackoverflow.com/a/36070260/1221096
