You need to add PHPUnit to your path. Include the ./vendor/bin/phpunit into your PATH environment (to be searched when looking for programs) in your OS.

It should not have to be. You would have 1 PHPUnit, and test all your projects with it. Relative paths may still be added to your PATH environment, if needed. Also, I believe you can add PHPUnit to the include path in the Bootstrap.php file, in case you want to use that method.

I had the same problem and got tired of fiddling with PATHs on all my machines, so I wrote a small tool that makes composer behave a bit more like PEAR did:

You can use it to install Composer packages globally by running:

poser require phpunit/phpunit

Afterwards, calling phpunit on the shell will work as expected.
