Time Traveller Bundle
=====================

[](#time-traveller-bundle)

It helps you in writing tests for project which has time dependencies. You can control what `now` means.

```
// Original way:
$entity->setCreatedAt(new \DateTime());

// New way with the TimeManager:
$entity->setCreatedAt($timeManager->getNow());
```

> ### Limitations
>
> [](#limitations)
>
> - The `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()` in Doctrine or the PDO `NOW()` functions will get back the "right" dates and times. You have to avoid these "outside" functions.
> - Some (third party) listeners (eg: TimestampableListener) use the original `new DateTime()` method. You have to pay attention to this, and you have to override, or fix in the background with your own listener.
