There is issue when returning value from depended-upon test. It will always return null when using data sets.

Fix will be introduced in #3449

This issue can be closed when #3449 is merged.

@Niko9911 What is the exact issue here? In case it is a variant of the issue demonstrated below, the TL;DR is that this is a result of the current architecture and cannot be changed easily. If you search the github issues for 'dataprovider' and 'depends' you will find quite a lot of discussion.

The code below shows that depending on a dataprovidered tests will not automatically rerun the test for every dataprovider row of the test referenced in @depends.

<?php
class DataproviderAsDependencyParameterTest extends \PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase
{
    /**
     * @testdox testA($value)
     * @depends testB
     */
    public function testA($value): void
    {
        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }

    /**
     * @testdox testB($value)
     * @dataProvider someProvider
     */
    public function testB($value): void
    {
        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }

    public function someProvider()
    {
        return [
            [1],
            [2],
            [3],
        ];
    }
}

Can this be closed?

I think so, yes. It is a request that pops up every now and then. Having looked at the way dataproviders work it won't be a simple change to get this working.
