Codeception - how to test for redirects

Acceptance.php

<?php 
// Simply place the following two functions in _support/Helper/Acceptance.php
// Then you can call $I->verifyRedirect(...) inside your tests

     * Ensure that a particular URL does NOT contain a 301/302

        $phpBrowser = $this->getModule('PhpBrowser');

        // Disable the following of redirects
        $guzzle->followRedirects(false);

Thanks!

nice staff

Star for you!
Thanks

Very helpful, thanks!!

$response->getStatus(); was throwing an error, changed to $response->getStatusCode(); and it seems to work.

Thanks mate.

Thanks a lot!

One small thing:
The parameters are swapped in line 53:

$this->assertEquals($responseCode, $redirectCode);

should be

$this->assertEquals($redirectCode, $responseCode);
