Symfony2：对在security.interactive_login事件中设置了会话变量的控制器的功能测试

Question

I have implemented a listener on the security.interactive_login event to set one session variable that is used all over my app, as advised in Symfony2: After successful login event, perform set of actions . The problem is that the security.interactive_login event is not fired in functional tests (I guess this is logical since there is no actual interactive login). Given this restriction: How can I run functional tests with session variables set upon user login?

Answer 1

如果您使用基本身份验证，则可以最终手动触发事件处理程序进行测试，但是我认为更合适的方法是通过使用登录表单与客户端提交来登录应用程序-应该以这种方式触发事件监听器。

Just to bring detail on the workaround:

In the functional test case I changed

$client = static::createClient(array(), array(
    'PHP_AUTH_USER'=>'alberto'
    ,'PHP_AUTH_PW'=>'********'
    )
);

For

$client = static::createClient();
$crawler = $client->request('GET','/secured/login');
$form = $crawler->selectButton('Aceptar')->form();
$form['_username'] = 'alberto';
$form['_password'] = '********';
$crawler = $client->submit($form);
