Symfony Unit Testing - Set Value for Javascript Rendered Elements

Question

In Unit Testing, How can I set a value to the Select box options in which drop down options are rendered from Javascript ?

When I set a value, I am getting Invalidargument exception.

Note: Form is a general HTML Form

Referred links: symfony unit tests: add/modify form action

Have you tried to directly post the form without take it and populate? — Matteo

Thanks for @ Matteo comments.

In Unit testing,

For setting values for the Select box, which are not available in the Drop down, Use Posting the data instead of submitting the form,

$this->client->request('POST', $postUrl, $formValueArray);

$formValueArray = array('data' => 'value');

or

$formValueArray = array( 
                'myform' => array(
                    'data' => 'value'
                ))
            );

Note: It can be used to set all the form fields which are not available in the forms.
