azPHP - E2E Testing in Symfony with PHPUnit

This month, Peter Adams will present show us how to end-to-end (E2E) Testing in Symfony with PHPUnit.

In addition to crafting PHPUnit tests that cover all the events that take place when a particular request is made, I'll cover different tools (both built-in and external to Symfony) to verify configuration, templates, and check for known vulnerabilities in dependencies. We'll also point out similar tools and commands, where they exist, in Laravel. I'll also talk about some of the limitations I've found with this specific testing implementation.
