Im new to behat, and i wonder how can i do a Background entry on a feature file ??

i would like to use a table for defining some data

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

new here, too :)

Kevin Abatan

@carere

welcome then :)

here is what im trying to do, can anyone tell me if i have the wrong syntax in my gherkin feature ?

    Background:
        Given the following connections exist:
            | name    | user  | password | port | host      | scheme
            | default | neo4j | neo4j    | 7687 | localhost | bolt

when i do that i got the following error during parsing:

Expected Step, but got text: "            | name    | user  | password | port | host      | scheme" in file: features/create-node.feature

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

same here

Kevin Abatan

@carere

do you have the same problem ? @paoloooo_twitter

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

yes, same problem

but I fix it by adding | at the end of line

Kevin Abatan

@carere

indeed, that was the problem :)

thx a lot, have a nice day ;)

  Background:
    Given the following connections exist:
      | name    | user  | password | port | host      | scheme |
      | default | neo4j | neo4j    | 7687 | localhost | bolt   |

yw :)

but are you trying to connect to a database?

Kevin Abatan

@carere

im creating a "Neo4j Companion" in PHP, and im writing some features, since it's my first project in BDD / TDD style

so i need to be able to provide some connections, in my main domain :)

im not building a project, im building a library

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

ah ok

Kevin Abatan

@carere

so if my features a domain oriented, i should be able to use them in order to build a "neo4j companion" in any langage

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

Good luck :)

Kevin Abatan

@carere

thx :)

Nino Paolo

@paoloooo_twitter

I think, it would be good if you can add the configuration on behat.yml

but I’m not 100% of it :)

Kevin Abatan

@carere

hello all :)

it's me again XD

i need some help in order to tell to behat where to find my gherkin files, do you know how to do this ?

can i put them elsewhere than features folder ??

Kevin Abatan

@carere

i found it :) it's the option paths in suite


  suites:
    default:
      paths:
        - '%paths.base%/../tests/Behaviors'

Hi all

Is there any way with Behat 3.5 to store failed tests result in a file to be able to rerun it after ?

Code

public function iShouldSeeGithublogin()
    {
        $session = $this->getSession();        
        $session->start();
        $session->visit('https://github.com/login');
        $page = $session->getPage();
        //var_dump($this->getSession()->getPage());
        $pageContent = $this->getSession()->getPage()->getContent();
        $titleStart = strpos($pageContent, "<title");
        $titleEnd = strpos($pageContent, "</title");
        if(null === $titleStart || null === $titleEnd) {
            throw new \Exception('title not found by strpos');
        } else {
            echo "\n TitleStart:".$titleStart." TitleEnd:".$titleEnd."\n";
        }

        $title = $page->find('css', 'title');
        if (null === $title) {
           throw new \Exception('Couldn\'t locate the title.');
        }
    }

@javascript
Scenario: Show the Login Screen # features/githublogin/githublogin.feature:4
Given I visit the GitbubLogin Page # GithubLoginFeatureContext::iVisitTheGitbubloginPage()
When I see the GithubLoginPage # GithubLoginFeatureContext::iSeeTheGithubloginpage()
Then I should see GithubLogin # GithubLoginFeatureContext::iShouldSeeGithublogin()
│
│ TitleStart:1471 TitleEnd:1505
│
Couldn't locate the title. (Exception)

seems like $page->find is never working however whyt i try

Hi there, is there a nice way to use phpunit assertions inside Behat? Pros / cons for doing that? I find using phpunit within Behat context a bit more productive. Just the way to include the library from vendors folder does not seem nice.

require_once DIR . '/../../../../../../vendor/phpunit/phpunit/src/Framework/Assert/Functions.php'; does not seem nice or the other way I have to do it with 'use' in every class.

Tadas Davidsonas

@tdavidsonas88

so in general not sure if it is a good idea using phpunit assertions inside Behat contexts

Hello everyone, i have a question can you help me please? I have to work project with multiple rest api and i want use behat for testing. But for best practice and best evolution It's more efficient to use one behat/composer.json/context for test all api with different base_url like explain here Behat/MinkExtension#155 or just init behat test for each repo with one configuration by project. Thanks
