Note that seek() and count() are not always available. At least not on ZendServer CE with PHP 5.2.12 on Mac OSX.
Simple test:
<?php
echo "php ".phpversion().": ";
$dirit = new DirectoryIterator( '.' );
var_dump( method_exists( $dirit, 'seek' ) );
var_dump( method_exists( $dirit, 'count' ) );
?>
You can implement them using existing methods:
seek(): rewind() and then $pos times next()
count(): clone iterator (to keep position), rewind() and then ++$count while ( valid() )
The DirectoryIterator class
Introduction
The DirectoryIterator class provides a simple interface for viewing the contents of filesystem directories.
Class synopsis

Shows us all files and catalogues in directory except "." and "..".
<?php
foreach (new DirectoryIterator('../moodle') as $fileInfo) {
if($fileInfo->isDot()) continue;
echo $fileInfo->getFilename() . "<br>\n";
}
?>

DirectoryIterator::getBasename() has been also been available since 5.2.2, according to the changelog (not documented yet). It takes a parameter $suffix, and is useful if, for instance, you use a naming convention for your files (e.g. ClassName.php).
The following code uses this to add recursively All*Tests.php in any subdirectory off of tests/, basically, suites of suites.
<?php
// PHPUnit boilerplate code goes here
class AllTests {
public static function main() {
$parameters = array('verbose' => true);
PHPUnit_TextUI_TestRunner::run(self::suite(), $parameters);
}
public static function suite() {
$suite = new PHPUnit_Framework_TestSuite('AllMyTests'); // this must be something different than the class name, per PHPUnit
$it = new AllTestsFilterIterator(
new RecursiveIteratorIterator(
new RecursiveDirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__) . '/tests')));
for ($it->rewind(); $it->valid(); $it->next()) {
require_once($it->current());
$className = $it->current()->getBasename('.php');
$suite->addTest($className::suite());
}
return $suite;
}
}
?>
Also, the AllTestsFilterIterator above extends FilterIterator, and contains one method, accept():
<?php
class AllTestsFilterIterator extends FilterIterator {
public function accept() {
if (preg_match('/All.*Tests\.php/', $this->current())) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
?>

Implements Iterator so you can foreach() over the content of the given directory
