That's a really good feature for professional who want to add more quality to their projects.

I'm using the symfony framework for one year and a half and I can say that, like any new language or framework, that the learning curve is pretty flat. But when it comes to practices or methodology and especially TDD, which I am currently experiencing, the adoption curve is more steepy, even with the best testing tools in hands.

Personally, I don't think it is possible to engage in TDD when one is first learning the Symfony framework (or any new technology). It takes a certain confidence to write tests that fail. But once one knows the framework, yes, tests are the best way to both prevent errors and document the software for future programmers who will have to learn the system. This is useful post.
