PHPUnit + Symfony: Crawler Follow Redirects Causes SegFault

I have a simple PHPUnit/Symfony WebTestCase set up to test our site's login form. 

$form = $crawler->filter("#register")->form();

// set form values

$crawler = $this->client->submit($form);

The form will submit to /register, and then redirect to /registered on success (and 200/OK back to /register on failure).

If I use either $this->client->followRedirects(); before block above, or $this->client->followRedirect(); after the submit, I get a segfault. There's really no indication of where the segfault is taking place.

Something else of note: if I run JUST the tests in this tests parent class (2 tests) i.e. using --filter [THE CLASS] it runs fine. If I try to run this test, along with the full suite (~15 tests), I get the segfault.

I've tried giving phpunit more memory using the -d flag, but that doesn't really help.

The problem can be in controller work in conjunction with other component.

I suggest you to use the Process Isolation in PHPUnit so you can run the critical test in a separate PHP process. As Example, you can use the following annotations for:

Indicates that all tests in a test class should be run in a separate PHP process:

/**
 * @runTestsInSeparateProcesses
 */
class MyTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
    // ...
}

Indicates that a test should be run in a separate PHP process:

class MyTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
{
    /**
     * @runInSeparateProcess
     */
    public function testInSeparateProcess()
    {
        // ...
    }
}

Hope this help
