This repository will provide all you need to get you up and running with Behat
and mink in a basic setup.

# Install

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.
