This repository will provide all you need to get you up and running with Behat
and mink in a basic setup.
# Install
2015-11-14 21:16:23 +01:00
1. Clone the repository, or download.
2. Run `composer install` from within the repository.
You can verify with `bin/behat -di` whether Behat works and the language is
available to write website tests.
## For non headless browser
Headless means without a GUI, just CLI. This is default for this setup. So all
your tests are run without a GUI of an actual browser.
To use a real browser like Firefox, you need to install selenium standalone
server, in addition, by downloading from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/
# Execute
Per default you just can run your tests. Therefor execute: `bin/behat features`.
If you wanna see your tests running in real time inside the browser, or need a
specific feature, you need to start the selenium server before running the
tests.
Start selenium server: `java -jar bin/selenium-server-standalone-2.48.2.jar`.
Modify the call to match path and filename of downloaded server.
Uncomment the line containing `default_session` in `behat.yml`, then run your
tests again.
# Extending
Once the tests work you are set to start your own. Just follow the [official
documentation](http://behat.org) and write your own tests.
# Support
Native support is given for Firefox. This repository aims to provide basic
support to get you started. For full support contact us or dive deeper on your
own.
