This PR was submitted for the master branch but it was merged into the 3.4 branch instead (closes #8218). Discussion ---------- Added a note about the new behavior of BrowserKit and redirects This fixes #8164. I couldn't find any mention to the old behavior, but I consider important to add a note about this to help users upgrading to newer Symfony versions and facing failing tests.
