PHPUnit error with Zend_Session
This post is more than 18 months old. Since technology changes too rapidly, this content may be out of date (but
that's not always the case). Please remember to verify any technical or programming information with the current
release.
Running a test, I ran into this error:
Zend_Session_Exception: Session must be started before any output has been sent to the browser; output started in /usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Util/Printer.php/173
In order to solve that, I added a line calling ob_start() to my test bootstrap file.
However, there is a better way!!
Instead, add the following line:
Zend_Session::$_unitTestEnabled = true;
This works flawlessly.
