Symfony 2: Form Data Submit and Models with Validation Unit Testing Issue
While creating a phpunit test against a form for Symfony 2, I encountered an interesting problem that made little sense to me at first (for reference, I was following an example for unit testing form types from the Symfony 2 website).

World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Guide (for the Uber Casual DPS Player) Part 2
Again, I’m writing this series just because I’ve gone through Throne of Thunder LFR so many times that I wanted to share my experience (and frustrations) with others who might be in a similar predicament. Also, I wanted to split up this blog to make it easier to digest as the entire thing will end…
