So I've just got it working by upgrading to doctrine/orm 2.6.

The tutorial says to include this composer.json requiring 2.4 :
"require": { "doctrine/orm": "2.4.*",

Maybe the tutorial should be updated to include whatever version number fixed this

[Majkl578]

Yes, it should be ^2.6 and YAML reference removed completely.

In case of 2.6, YAML ist still in use but needs a deprecation note. This is a fitting change for #7374.

_Getting Started_ needs to be tested with the current and the upcoming versions and the documentation needs an update with the resulting changes of the tests in a new PR.

7412 has been merged which fixes the ORM version in the tutorial.
