    100)) ->andWhere($criteria->expr()->eq('active', 1)); $posts = $em->getRepository('Post')->matching($criteria); // Eloquent $posts = Post::where('votes', '>', 100) ->where('active', 1) ->get(); // Eloquent (using query scopes) $posts = Post::popular()->active()->get();
  6. It's clean and readable // Symfony $client = static::createClient(); $client->request('GET',
