This fixes the testsuite in master.
For the Redis storage, the test failure seems to come from a bad resolution when merging 2.1 into master.

I still have some failing tests in master locally:

- some tests with the incremental output tests in the Process component
- a timing test for the Stopwatch component (but passing when running only the Stopwatch tests)
- some mock expectations in the Form component.

However, all these tests are passing on Travis so it looks weird.

[2.2] [Serializer] Configurable Serializer

Bug fix: no
Feature addition: yes
Backwards compatibility break: yes
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: #4907, #4938
License of the code: MIT
Todo:

This is an extension of GH-6574 that removes the context state in favor of passing this information around.

@fabpot @lsmith I think this is how it should work from an OOP/OOD perpesctive, avoiding the context state. This makes for a much cleaner code and dependency graph.

makes sense. anything fancier would lose this components simplicity which IMHO is the main benefit versus JMS serializer.

Looks very good. :+1:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

by beberlei at 2013-01-18T14:37:32Z

I need to fix the failures with the JsonEncoder and then this is good to merge

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

by stof at 2013-01-18T14:40:21Z

you also need to update the CHANGELOG of the component

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

by beberlei at 2013-01-18T23:17:57Z

Fixed, only the Redis Profiler problem still failing the Travis builds. Also I updated the CHANGELOG.md.

@fabpot  Good to merge from my POV
