Re: How to debug($result) during a test? (Cake 2.1)

&debug=1 does not work when testing controllers with the testAction
method using the web runner.

If you call the testAction method any debugs do not work. If you
remove the testAction method call it works again and prints out your
debug just fine.

--debug does work in the CLI still though with testAction so you can
use that instead.

Anyone know how to get debug to work with ControllerTestCase and
testAction?

Thanks.
