Symfony2 functional test authentication

votes

I'm trying to set my functional tests up and I'm having problems with getting authenticated. I've read over this guide: http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/testing/http_authentication.html and implemented what they have said to do but I still get stuck on redirecting login. I'm sure this is something trivial but I'm not sure what.

Test Controller

namespace HvH\ClientsBundle\Tests\Controller;

use HvH\ClientsBundle\Controller\ClientsController;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\HeaderBag;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;

class ClientsControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{

    public function testGetClientsAction()
    {

        $client = static::createClient();

        $client->request(
           '/clients/123456', 
           'GET', 
            array(), /* request params */ 
            array(), /* files */
            array('X-Requested-With' => "XMLHttpRequest", 'PHP_AUTH_USER' => 'testuser', 'PHP_AUTH_PW' => 'testpass')
        );

        print_r($client->getResponse());
        die();
    }
}

Any suggestions on how to get around this?

Either use:

$crawler = $client->followRedirect();

or make that client always redirects:

$client->followRedirects();

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' => '[email protected]','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
