Symfony2 functional test authentication
Either use:
$crawler = $client->followRedirect();
or make that client always redirects:
$client->followRedirects();
Related doc: http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/testing.html#redirecting
You should be able to do the following:
1) 'browse' to the page
$client = static::createClient();$crawler = $client->request('GET', '/login');
2) Select the form via the submit button
$buttonCrawlerNode = $crawler->selectButton('submit');
3) Pass the login credentials as data and submit the form
$form = $buttonCrawlerNode->form();$data = array('username' => 'u@u.com','password' => 'pass');$client->submit($form,$data);
4) Follow the redirect
$crawler = $client->followRedirect();
5) At this point you should be able to check the response code
$this->assertEquals(302, $client->getResponse()->getStatusCode());
or access a secured page
$crawler = $client->request('GET', '/dashboard');//do other stuff
