Practise Symfony App using Vagrant and Chef

This is a simple Symfony application that runs from a Vagrant powered VM. The VM is running on Ubuntu 12.04 with PHP 5.3.10.

Usage

1. Install Vagrant and VirtualBox by the appropriate method for your OS
2. Run vagrant up from the project root to fire up the VM
3. Ensure Symfony's dependancies are pulled in with composer
4. Visit http://localhost:1337 to see the output

Tests

The tests require the dependancies to be pulled in with Composer, and Selenium >= 2.31. Once Selenium is running execute ./run_behat.sh.

Composer

Get Composer if it not already installed and run php composer.phar install

Selenium

Download and run Selenium with the default settings:

wget http://selenium.googlecode.com/files/selenium-server-standalone-2.31.0.jar
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.31.0.jar
