How to skip tests on error in PHPUnit?

How do I get PHPUnit to skip tests when the dependent one has an error with a data set?

---

Works

If my data provider only has things that cause errors, then it will appropriately skip the dependent tests. Note the Skipped: 1

class DataProviderDependsTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
    public function getDataProvider(){
      return [
        ['non-existent_file.txt'],
      ];
    }

    /**
     *  @dataProvider getDataProvider
     */
    public function testCanBeDependedOn($data){
      $actual = file_get_contents($data);
      $this->assertSame('expected',$actual);
    }

    /**
     *  @dataProvider getDataProvider
     *  @depends testCanBeDependedOn
     */
    public function testCanDepend($data){
      $this->assertTrue(false);
    }
}

Does Not Work

However, if I add one piece of good data to the provider, then despite the errors caused by the rest, PHPUnit proceeds to execute all the dependent tests anyway (even the corresponding data sets with errors). It doesn't skip anything. Note the added ['real_file.txt'], to the data provider.

class DataProviderDependsTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
    public function getDataProvider(){
      return [
        ['real_file.txt'],
        ['non-existent_file.txt'],
      ];
    }

    /**
     *  @dataProvider getDataProvider
     */
    public function testCanBeDependedOn($data){
      $actual = file_get_contents($data);
      $this->assertSame('expected',$actual);
    }

    /**
     *  @dataProvider getDataProvider
     *  @depends testCanBeDependedOn
     */
    public function testCanDepend($data){
      $this->assertTrue(false);
    }
}

PHPUnit doesn't skip @depends tests on error when using @dataProvider

I would like to skip some tests all together if any part of the provided data in the depended test causes an error.

You can clone these files for quick tests if you want:
