Are you doing more than one request with the Client? If so, you problem might be that the client shutdowns the kernel after one request was performed. But you can disable that with $this->client->disableReboot() So this snippet snippet should be idempotent:

public function setUp()
{
    $this->client = $this->createClient(['environment' => 'test']);
    $this->client->disableReboot();
    $this->em = $this->client->getContainer()->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager');
    $this->em->beginTransaction();
}

public function tearDown()
{
    $this->em->rollback();
}

public function testCreateNewEntity()
{
    $this->client->request('GET', '/create/entity/form');
    $this->client->request('POST', '/create/entity/unique/123');
}
