Functional tests on Symfony 2 - issue with the default autoload.php.dist

Question

I have been trying to run FunctionalTest which extends the Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Tests\Functional\WebTestCase with not so much success.

The issue is that:

the code in FrameworkBundle\Tests\Functional\app\AppKernel.php attempts to load autoload.php.dist in the framework bundle (not the one in the app/).
And autoload.php.dist then tries to load vendor\autoload.php which does not exist within this path.

If I remove the autoload.php.dist in the FrameworkBundle then everything is fine, but I want to avoid doing that because each time I do composer update I will then have to remove that specific fine.

I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

The exact error from the console is posted below for your information:

Configuration read from D:\xampp\htdocs\demo\app\phpunit.xml. dist

require_once() called at [D:\xampp\htdocs\demo\vendor\sym fony\symfony\src\Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Tests\Functional\app\AppKernel.p hp:26]

The test class simply extends WebTestCase with the setUp looks like this:

static::$kernel = static::createKernel(array('test_case'));
static::$kernel->boot();
$this->containter = static::$kernel->getContainer();

I just ran a test on my unix machine and it's working. Don't have a windows machine handy. You just have MyTest extends WebTestCase? Have you gotten tests to run under xampp before? I use xampp at home and have not had a problem. What version of symfony? — Cerad

All my tests are running fine, but those are just basic unit tests, this is the first time I extends WebTestCase. You are right, MyTest simply extends WebTestCase, also I simly get the container in the setUp. Let me add that in the question — mr1031011

Are you using the supplied phpunit.xml file either with phpunit -C or just by running phpunit in the app directory? Did you make any tweaks to phpunit.xml? There is a bootstrap line in there. — Cerad

Okay. I see the problem. You are extending from Tests\Functional\WebTestCase. That is actually a test for testing the WebTestCase. You want to extend from Test\WebTestCase.

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

class PersonRepositoryTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testProject()
    {
        $client = static::createClient();

        $manager = $client->getContainer()->get('cerad_person.manager');

And you might want to get one or two working using the $client line shown above. All the setup stuff can be a bit tricky.
