Symfony 2 Functional Testing external URL

Question

Whatever I do, I always get a

Symfony\\Component\\HttpKernel\\Exception\\NotFoundHttpException: \"No route found for [...]\"

Answer 1

It's not possible, because $client actually doesn't send any http request (you may notice that when you try run your "functional" test with www server disabled - they still should work). Instead of that it simulates http request and run normal Symfony's dispatching.
