Few months ago this was working fine but after this recent commit it started to create issue.
6e2dc63

SuiteGenerator::getInstance()->generateAllSuites($testManifest); function was able to create "_generated" DIR and then testManifest.txt file getting created successfully within _generated DIR but this function get moved after $testManifest->generate(); call and its started to throwing errors because _generated DIR not getting created before creating testManifest.txt file
