I've got this very simple acceptance test using Codeception and its Symfony2 module:

public function myTest(AcceptanceTester $I)
{
    $I->wantTo('test something');
    $I->amOnRoute("acme_site_home.es");
    $I->dontSee('hello');
}

When I run it I get an Undefined index: localhost PHPUnit_Framework_Exception triggered by a call to $request->server->get("HTTP_HOST") in my route action.

I already tried the following:

  • Adding this to phpunit.xml:
    <phpunit>
        <php>
            <server name='HTTP_HOST' value='http://some.host.com' />
        </php>
    </phpunit>
  • Adding this to my test:
    $_SERVER['HOST_NAME'] = "some.host.com";
  • Adding this to my test:
    $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] = "some.host.com";

None of this works, I always get the same error message.

How could I fix this?

Notes

[everything given here is sanitized (passwords, hostnames, etc.) and some line breaks and indentation were added for readability]

Just in case, my acceptance suite settings are as follows:

class_name: AcceptanceTester
modules:
    enabled:
        - Asserts
        - Db
        - Symfony2
        - Doctrine2
        - \Tests\Helper\Acceptance

And my Codeception settings:

namespace: Tests
actor: Tester
paths:
    tests: tests
    log: tests/_output
    data: tests/_data
    support: tests/_support
    envs: tests/_envs
settings:
    bootstrap: _bootstrap.php
    colors: true
    memory_limit: 1024M
extensions:
    enabled: [ Codeception\Extension\RunFailed ]
modules:
    config:
        Db:
            dsn: 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=acme_test'
            user: 'root'
            password: 'blahblah'
            dump: 'tests/_data/dump.sql'
            populate: false
            cleanup: false
        Doctrine2:
            depends: Symfony2
            cleanup: false
        PhpBrowser:
            url: http://acme.com
        WebDriver:
             browser: firefox
             url: http://acme.com
        REST:
            depends: Symfony2
            url: http://acme.com

Here is the result of running the test with the -vvv flag:

$ bin/codecept run tests/acceptance/ExtranetBundle/Controller/DefaultControllerCest.php -vvv

  • Run codeception with -vvv flag to get the stack trace, then add stack trace to you question. Commented Nov 27, 2015 at 21:23
  • @Naktibalda Thanks. I added it as well as the Symfony error stack trace. Commented Nov 28, 2015 at 11:06
  • So it happens in /Volumes/Utilisateurs/marc/Sites/acme.com/src/Acme/SiteBundle/Controller/DefaultController.php line 160 , right? Commented Nov 28, 2015 at 18:24
  • Yes, this is the line with the $request->server->get("HTTP_HOST") I mentioned in my question. Commented Nov 28, 2015 at 22:04
  • But the bug is in your code. HTTP_HOST is always set in Server Parameters. Your problem is that there is no localhost in typeAppFb and you don't check with isset() before reading out of it. Commented Nov 29, 2015 at 10:59

It was a two-sided issue:

  1. The code doesn't handle unknown domains well and emits a warning, PhpUnit turns the warning into exception.

  2. To test the request to specific domain, you must make request to that domain, e.g. $I->amOnPage('http://acme.com/es');. Since you are using a Symfony2 module, it doesn't make the actual HTTP request to that sites, but handles it internally. If you are using amOnRoute() method, make sure that the url generated by the route includes the hostname component.

P.S. I don't know how does the site bundle work, but I recommend having at least one hostname based route for that domain or your test may stop working with future versions of Codeception.

Could you clarify "having at least one hostname based route for that domain", please? I work in a team, and my local hostname is not the same as my teammates' or the production website. Ideally, I would expect the Symfony2 module to accept some kind of a baseUrl setting in codeception.yml (which is developer specific) but it's not the case...
Symfony2 module does not make HTTP requests, so you can use any domains or no domain at all in the tests. As you could see before, localhost is used by default and that is just fine for Codeception and Symfony2.
By hostname based route I meant this: symfony.com/doc/current/components/routing/…
I understand all of this, but how should I define a hostname based route if every developer in my team uses a different hostname, for instance? The Symfony2 module doesn't seem to accept such setting.
