The problem is right here: for the form's elementPrefixPath setting to
have any effect on an element, the element must be created using the
form object's addElement() or createElement() methods. Try this instead:
$testing = $this->createElement('text', 'testing');
and you should see better results (you'll need to do it for all
methods). If you use createElement(), don't forget to attach the
elements later using addElement(), addElements(), or setElements().
