Symfony2 - Tests with FOSUserBundle

Question

i would write a test for Symfony2 with FOSUserBundle.

At the moment i tried some ways and no one works.

I need a function like \"createAuthClient\".

Answer 1

Create an AbstractControllerTest and create an authorized client on setUp() as follow:

client = $this->createAuthorizedClient();
    }

    /**
     * @return Client
     */
    protected function createAuthorizedClient()
    {
        $client = static::createClient();
        $container = $client->getContainer();

        $session = $container->get('session');
        /** @var $userManager \FOS\UserBundle\Doctrine\UserManager */
        $userManager = $container->get('fos_user.user_manager');
        /** @var $loginManager \FOS\UserBundle\Security\LoginManager */
        $loginManager = $container->get('fos_user.security.login_manager');
        $firewallName = $container->getParameter('fos_user.firewall_name');

        $user = $userManager->findUserBy(array('username' => 'REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_TEST_USERNAME'));
        $loginManager->loginUser($firewallName, $user);

        // save the login token into the session and put it in a cookie
        $container->get('session')->set('_security_' . $firewallName,
            serialize($container->get('security.context')->getToken()));
        $container->get('session')->save();
        $client->getCookieJar()->set(new Cookie($session->getName(), $session->getId()));

        return $client;
    }
} 

NOTE: Please, replace the username with your test username.

Then, extends the AbstractControllerTest and use the global $client to make requests as follow:

class ControllerTest extends AbstractControllerTest
{
    public function testIndexAction()
    {
        $crawler = $this->client->request('GET', '/admin/');

        $this->assertEquals(
            Response::HTTP_OK,
            $this->client->getResponse()->getStatusCode()
        );
    }
}

This method tested and works fine
