 I'm now having issues with this in a plugin, due to the fact that
 `is_callable( 'parent::method' )` is apparently not supported on PHP 5.2
 when the method is actually on the grandparent.

 When using `setExpectedException()` in a testcase extending
 `WP_Ajax_UnitTestCase`, I now get this error:

 {{{
 Fatal error: Call to undefined method
 WordPoints_Breaking_Module_Check_Ajax_Test::expectException() in
 /tmp/wordpress/tests/phpunit/includes/testcase-ajax.php on line 215
 }}}

 However, `method_exists( 'PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase',
 'setExpectedException' )` would appear to work. See
