When I run the phing target in Jenkins, I get following error. unrecognized option -- b

What am I doing wrong? or any help how to debug this issue ?

Note - This is laravel-5.4 application and when I run phpunit from application's root folder its working.

The message unrecognized option -- b obviously originates from PHPUnit. Maybe the Phing task uses it the wrong way? — Joe
@Joe yes, but I wonder If I'm doing it wrong? Any way I can find what is that option b, it may helpful to find the issue — Saumini Navaratnam
Sounds pretty much like this Issue. According to the commit mentioned there it might work with an older version of PHPUnit (< 4.8). — Joe
Running phing -verbose or even phing -debug might reveal the options phing actually uses to start phpunit. Maybe you'll find your b there. — Joe

You said you are using Phing version - 0.13.3, which is not very plausible. You should try using Phing 3.0.0-alpha3, it has a lot of improvements.

Also, I think the following answer can help you: Phing and PHPUnit, just cant get even the most basic thing running
