Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase class not found

[tomaszturkowski]

I created fresh Symfony 4.1.x project, but when I'm trying to create and execute functional test I am getting error:

PHP Fatal error: Class
'Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase' not found in
/home/tomasz/my_project/tests/ExampleControllerTest.php on line 7

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create project

   composer create-project symfony/skeleton my_project

2. Install phpunit, functional tests components and maker for generating skeleton of functional test

   composer req --dev symfony/phpunit-bridge symfony/css-selector symfony/browser-kit symfony/maker-bundle

3. Create example functional test

   bin/console make:functional-test ExampleControllerTest

Content of created file:

<?php

namespace App\Tests;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

class ExampleControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testSomething()
    {
        $client = static::createClient();
        $crawler = $client->request('GET', '/');

        $this->assertSame(200, $client->getResponse()->getStatusCode());
        $this->assertContains('Hello World', $crawler->filter('h1')->text());
    }
}

4. Run tests

   bin/phpunit

Output (after installing phpunit dependencies):

PHP Fatal error: Class
'Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase' not found in
/home/tomasz/my_project/tests/ExampleControllerTest.php on line 7

I checked and class Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase does exist in vendor/. Any clues?

phpunit.xml.dist: https://pastebin.com/MYjgpFbA
composer.json: https://pastebin.com/WQaYFBq1
composer.lock: https://pastebin.com/pwRsmnY8
PHP Version: 7.2.12

Either composer doesn't find the class or phpunit doesn't use phpunit.xml.dist.
try running composer dump-autoload and/or bin/phpunit -c phpunit.xml.xsd

I have no idea yet what is causing this issue, but I can confirm it.

seems to be caused by symfony/recipes#481

[nicolas-grekas]

Does symfony/recipes#491 fix it?

@nicolas-grekas I'm not sure how to test the recipe, but changing the code of bin/phpunit in my project and removing the following lines like what you did solved the issue:

$classLoader = require dirname(__DIR__).'/vendor/autoload.php';
App\Kernel::bootstrapEnv('test');
$classLoader->unregister();

So, I think it does fix the issue.

[nicolas-grekas]

Thanks for the feedback.

Even after removing the 3 lines, it still doesn't solve the issue for me =(

I don't have the issue when starting a new project from scratch.
You should compare your files with those of a new project and spot the diff.

I had the same issue with a new project from scratch. However, I could get through it thanks to the answer below.

In your class under tests folder, just replace this line
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Tests\TestCase;
By this
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;
And it will work fine
