Provide a way to configure the Goutte driver

[elnur]

Right now, it's not possible to configure Goutte/Guzzle/cURL to ignore SSL errors.

[66Ton99]

Does MinkGoutteDriver support it?

[66Ton99]

@elnur I can't do it here if MinkGoutteDriver does not support this configuration

[stof]

@66Ton99 MinkGoutteDriver accepts a Goutte client in its constructor, so you can configure it the way you want

[elnur]

That's the way I'm doing it now. I subclass Behat\Mink\Driver\Goutte\Client and activate it the following way:

parameters:
    mink.goutte.class: Acme\Goutte\Client

But it would be nice to have a configuration option for such a common use case. Mink extension for Behat supports it, but Mink itself doesn't. That's another example of the Behat/Mink confusion.

[stof]

@elnur Mink itself supports configuring goutte (otherwise MinkExtension could not support it). The issue is only in MinkBundle.
And MinkBundle is actually a wrong tool for the job. It is integrating Mink into Symfony for the purpose of integrating it with PHPUnit actually. this is because it is from the old days were Behat was integrated the same way by BehatBundle before Behat had extensions). To use Mink in PHPUnit, I suggest using https://github.com/aik099/phpunit-mink instead (maintained by a core dev of Mink)

[elnur]

@stof For me the whole point of using the Mink bundle is to integrate with the Symfony DIC. I don't see a way to do that with PHPUnit-Mink — at least not an obvious one.

[stof]

but the point is that there is no valid reason to use Mink in your DIC. It is not meant to be used inside your app. It is meant to be used in your testsuite to test your app

[elnur]

How am I supposed to populate test data in the database and assert it after
interacting with the UI without the container then?

[elnur]

Hmm. I guess I could do it by extending KernelTestCase.

[stof]

yeah, the issue is that PHPUnit does not allow using several extensions at the same time, given that the common way to write a phpunit extension is to provide a base testcase class.

[elnur]

Seems like I need to extend BrowserTestCase in aik099/phpunit-mink. Therefore I won't be able to extend KernelTestCase. This bundle still looks like a better solution.
