Codeception PhpBrowser grabAttributeFrom throws Exception DOMDocument::loadXML()

问题

I updated my tests from Codeception 2.0.9 to 2.1.5.

Everything works fine except the PhpBrowser::grabAttributeFrom() method. I'll get a PHPUnit exception like this:

[PHPUnit_Framework_Exception] DOMDocument::loadXML(): Entity 'nbsp' not defined in Entity, line: 3

or

[PHPUnit_Framework_Exception] DOMDocument::loadXML(): Opening and ending tag mismatch: img line 141 and a in Entity, line: 142

It seems, that the grabAttributeFrom is very strict with HTML-DOM parsing. I googled the message and found, that the DOMDocument::loadHtml() is a bit less strict and would work.

How can I fix this grabAttributeFrom? I need the content of a href/src attribute of a HTML file.

The hint of @Naktibalda guides myself to the resolution. It's a conflict of the modules REST and PhpBrowser. Both modules have implemented the function grabAttributeFrom. To get the right one, you have to change the order in the configuration, to get the one of PhpBrowser:

modules:
  enabled:
    - REST:
        depends: PhpBrowser
        url: 'http://www.domain.com'
    - PhpBrowser:
        url: 'http://www.domain.com'

This works for me, because PhpBrowser now overrules the method in the builded AcceptanceTester.php.
