The Drupal Extension is an integration layer between Behat, Mink Extension, and Drupal. It provides step definitions for common testing scenarios specific to Drupal sites.

The Drupal Extension 4.x supports Drupal 6, 7 and 8, utilizes Behat 3.2+ and runs on PHP 5.5+. It is compatible with Symfony components 2.x as well as 3.x so it can be used on Drupal 8.4.x.

If you're new to the Drupal Extension, we recommend starting with the Full documentation

1. Install using Composer:

   mkdir projectdir
   cd projectdir
   curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
   COMPOSER_BIN_DIR=bin php composer.phar require drupal/drupal-extension='~4.0'

2. In the projectdir, create a file called behat.yml. Below is the minimal configuration. Many more options are covered in the Full documentation

  suites:
    default:
      contexts:
        - Drupal\DrupalExtension\Context\DrupalContext

      goutte: ~
      base_url: http://example.org/  # Replace with your site's URL
    Drupal\DrupalExtension:
      blackbox: ~

1. In the projectdir, run

   bin/behat --init

2. Find pre-defined steps to work with using:

   bin/behat -di

Starting with 3.3.0 Behat Drupal Extension depends on Behat 3.2.0 which requires all callbacks to be defined as static methods.

Before 3.3.0:

/**
 * @afterUserCreate
 */
public function afterUserCreate(EntityScope $scope) {
  // ...
}

Starting with 3.3.0:

/**
 * @afterUserCreate
 */
public static function afterUserCreate(EntityScope $scope) {
  // ...
}
