Issue can be fixed by applying filter Zend_Filter_Word_DashToCamelCase in ControllerFile and TestApplicationControllerFile contexts:

Fixed in trunk r24120

Problem also affects the following contexts: * DbTableFile (zf create db-table -> class Test-mod_Model_DbTable_Test extends Zend_Db_Table_Abstract) * FormFile (zf create form -> class Test-mod_Form_Test extends Zend_Form) * ModelFile (zf create model -> class Test-mod_Model_Test)

All of which rely upon AbstractClassFile context to create their class names.

Fix is to apply Zend_Filter_Word_DashToCamelCase in AbstractClassFile:
