i have setup current project run selenium , phantomjs. (similar setup http://www.nuanced.it/2015/05/using-phantomjs-with-phpunit.html)

however keep on getting following error

{"errormessage":"can set cookies current domain","request":{"headers":{"accept":"application/json;charset=utf-8","content-length":"135","content-type":"application/json;charset=utf-8","host":"127.0.0.1:8080"},"httpversion":"1.1","method":"post","post":"{\"cookie\":{\"name\":\"phpunit_selenium_test_id\",\"value\":\"pepperleaf\\\\webbundle\\\\tests\\\\myproject\\\\testfirsttest__testtitle\",\"secure\":false}}","url":"/cookie","urlparsed":{"anchor":"","query":"","file":"cookie","directory":"/","path":"/cookie","relative":"/cookie","port":"","host":"","password":"","user":"","userinfo":"","authority":"","protocol":"","source":"/cookie","querykey":{},"chunks":["cookie"]},"urloriginal":"/session/0d022670-4f79-11e5-abbe-01f06bc40b42/cookie"}}

code run on phpunit

class testfirsttest extends \phpunit_extensions_selenium2testcase {      /**      * {@inheritdoc}      */     protected function setup()     {         $this->setbrowser('phantomjs');         $this->sethost("127.0.0.1");         $this->setport(8080);         $this->setbrowserurl('http://www.mywebsite.dev/');     }      public function testtitle()     {         $this->url('/');         $this->asserttitle('example www page');     } } 

disclaimer: i'm quite new front end testing, first go @ this. i'm confused why happening i'm not setting nor creating cookies/sessions.

i'm not sure has caused problem. however, symfony/phpunit.xml (this has caused problems)

this updated (working phpunit.xml script works). i'm not sure caused problem above.
