Zend Framework 2 extension for Behat
, (*1)
Behat extension for Zend Framework 2 inspired by Symfony2extension by Konstantin Kudryashov., (*2)
Behat (http://behat.org/) is a php framework for Behavior Driven Development. This extension allows you to use it in your Zend Framework 2 projects. It initializes Behat, allowing you to quickly use your Gherking features within ZF2., (*3)
This extension is installed through composer and has following dependencies:, (*4)
"php":">=5.3.3", "behat/behat":"=2.4@stable", "zendframework/zendframework":">=2.2.0"
Composer will take care of installing these for you (see below)., (*5)
In order to install this extension, you only need to add the following in your Zend Framework 2 composer.json:, (*6)
"require": {
"mvlabs/zf2behat-extension" : "dev-master"
}
and then run composer.phar install (or update). At this point, you need to create a file named behat.yml in your application root folder with following content:, (*7)
default:
extensions:
MvLabs\Zf2Extension\Zf2Extension:
If you don't have an existing test suite, please proceed to 4.Initialization within a Module. Otherwise, you can use this extension within your existing test suite in 2 different ways:, (*8)
Both methods call a method setZf2App(Application $zf2Application) needed to set in a private property Zend\Mvc\Application to be reused on every step needed, (*9)
In order to initialize your feature suite inside a Zend Framework 2 module, you need to execute:, (*10)
$ php bin\behat --init "<module name>"
So, for example, if you want to initialize the skeleton application, you could just do from your application root directory:, (*11)
vendor/bin/behat --init Application
After the command is executed it will create a Features folder inside your module with a extension ready FeatureContext inside the Context subfolder. You should see following output in console:, (*12)
+d module/<module name>/src/<module name>/Features - place your *.feature files here +f module/<module name>/src/<module name>/Features/Context/FeatureContext.php - place your feature related code here
Now that you have your Features directory within your module source folder (module/
At this point, you only need to run:, (*14)
vendor/bin/behat <module_name>
to run the feature against your module., (*15)
If you often find yourself running a specific module suite it's possible to set a module parameter inside a profile in your behat.yml file like in the example below:, (*16)
default:
extensions:
MvLabs\Zf2Extension\Zf2Extension:
module: <module_name>
You can then just call behat without arguments:, (*17)
vendor/bin/behat
Within a profile you can use a specific Zend Framework config/application.config.php file, through the following:, (*18)
default:
extensions:
MvLabs\Zf2Extension\Zf2Extension:
module: <module_name>
config: <my_custom_config_file_path>
You can also use multiple profiles, such in the example below:, (*19)
default:
extensions:
MvLabs\Zf2Extension\Zf2Extension:
module: User
example:
extensions:
MvLabs\Zf2Extension\Zf2Extension:
module: Albums
After setting those profiles, you can your Albums module suite executing:, (*20)
``` $ php bin\behat -p=example, (*21)
8.Specific Feature Execution ============================ You can run specific features specifying file name:
$ php bin\behat "
9.Appication Level Feature Suite ============================== If you don't want to use module-centric structure it's possible maitain an application structure specifing a features path and context class in your behat.yml file like in the example:
default: paths: features: features context: class: ModuleDemo\Features\Context\CustomContext ```, (*23)
Using this path you shuold only remember to add your context class in the autoloader., (*24)
Supported options for profiles are:, (*25)
