## Installation
If you're starting a new project, we recommend to use Symfony 4 with Flex as it's the most straightforward way.
If you're adding this extension to an existing project, pick the method that fits it the best.
### Symfony 4/5 (with Flex)
1. Require this extension using *Composer* and allow for using contrib recipes:
```bash
composer require --dev friends-of-behat/symfony-extension:^2.0
```
### Symfony 4/5 (new directory structure, without Flex)
1. Require this extension using *Composer*:
```bash
composer require --dev friends-of-behat/symfony-extension:^2.0
```
2. Enable it within your Behat configuration:
```yaml
# behat.yaml.dist / behat.yaml
default:
extensions:
FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension: ~
```
3. Register a helper bundle in your kernel:
```php
# config/bundles.php
return [
// ...
FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension\Bundle\FriendsOfBehatSymfonyExtensionBundle::class => ['test' => true],
];
```
4. Create `tests/Behat` directory for Behat-related classes:
```bash
mkdir -p tests/Behat
```
5. Set up autowiring and autoconfiguration for Behat-related services you'll create later:
```yaml
# config/services_test.yaml
services:
_defaults:
autowire: true
autoconfigure: true
App\Tests\Behat\:
resource: '../tests/Behat/*'
```
### Symfony 3 (old directory structure)
1. Require this extension using *Composer*:
```bash
composer require --dev friends-of-behat/symfony-extension:^2.0
```
2. Enable it within your Behat configuration:
```yaml
# behat.yml.dist / behat.yml
default:
extensions:
FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension: ~
```
3. Register a helper bundle in your kernel:
```php
# app/AppKernel.php
public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = array(
// ...
);
if ('test' === $this->getEnvironment()) {
$bundles[] = new \FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension\Bundle\FriendsOfBehatSymfonyExtensionBundle();
}
}
```
4. Create `tests/Behat` directory for Behat-related classes:
```bash
mkdir -p tests/Behat
```
5. Set up autowiring and autoconfiguration for Behat-related services you'll create later:
```yaml
# app/config/config_test.yml
# ...
services:
_defaults:
autowire: true
autoconfigure: true
Tests\Behat\:
resource: '../../tests/Behat/*'
```
## Usage
This tutorial assumes you're using the new directory structure with autowiring and autoconfiguration enabled.
Let's first create a sample feature file (which is quite useless for demo purposes):
```gherkin
# features/using_symfony_extension.feature
Feature: Using SymfonyExtension
Scenario: Checking the application's kernel environment
Then the application's kernel should use "test" environment
```
There are two methods to check the kernel's environment - either by calling `getEnvironment()` method on the kernel itself
or by injecting `%kernel.environment%` parameter.
We'll need also a dummy context implementation:
```php
<?php
# tests/Behat/DemoContext.php
namespace App\Tests\Behat;
// If using Symfony 3, use namespace "Tests\Behat" instead
use Behat\Behat\Context\Context;
final class DemoContext implements Context
{
/**
* @Then the application's kernel should use :expected environment
*/
public function kernelEnvironmentShouldBe(string $expected): void
{
}
}
```
And also a suite defined in Behat configuration:
```yaml
# behat.yaml.dist / behat.yaml
default:
suites:
default:
contexts:
- App\Tests\Behat\DemoContext
```
After running Behat, the scenario should be passing.
### Services injection
Modify the existing `DemoContext` to be able to inject a kernel instance:
```php
<?php
// ...
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\KernelInterface;
final class DemoContext implements Context
{
/** @var KernelInterface */
private $kernel;
public function __construct(KernelInterface $kernel)
{
$this->kernel = $kernel;
}
/**
* @Then the application's kernel should use :expected environment
*/
public function kernelEnvironmentShouldBe(string $expected): void
{
if ($this->kernel->getEnvironment() !== $expected) {
throw new \RuntimeException();
}
}
}
```
If you're using autowiring and autoconfiguration, that's all you need! After running Behat, you should see a passing scenario.
If you're not, you need to register your context as a public service and define its dependencies:
```yaml
# config/services_test.yaml (Symfony 4/5)
# app/config/config_test.yml (Symfony 3)
services:
App\Tests\Behat\DemoContext:
public: true
arguments:
- "@kernel"
```
### Parameters injection
Modify the existing `DemoContext` to be able to inject a kernel environment as a parameter:
```php
<?php
// ...
final class DemoContext implements Context
{
/** @var string */
private $environment;
public function __construct(string $environment)
{
$this->environment = $environment;
}
/**
* @Then the application's kernel should use :expected environment
*/
public function kernelEnvironmentShouldBe(string $expected): void
{
if ($this->environment !== $expected) {
throw new \RuntimeException();
}
}
}
```
If you're using autowiring and autoconfiguration, that's all you need! After running Behat, you should see a passing scenario.
If you're not, you need to register your context as a public service and define its dependencies:
```yaml
# config/services_test.yaml (Symfony 4/5)
# app/config/config_test.yml (Symfony 3)
services:
App\Tests\Behat\DemoContext:
public: true
arguments:
- "%kernel.environment%"
```
## Mink integration
_SymfonyExtension_ provides an integration with [Mink](https://github.com/minkphp/Mink) and defines a dedicated,
isolated driver to use for Symfony application testing.
### Installation
1. Require the packages needed for the driver using _Composer_:
```bash
composer require --dev friends-of-behat/mink friends-of-behat/mink-extension friends-of-behat/mink-browserkit-driver
```
_Those `friends-of-behat` packages are forks of the original ones, adding support for Symfony 5 and dropping support for Symfony <4.4._
2. Enable the bundled driver:
```yaml
# behat.yaml.dist / behat.yaml
default:
extensions:
# ...
Behat\MinkExtension:
sessions:
symfony:
symfony: ~
```
### Usage
In order to use Mink, pass the Session to the constructor and call methods on it in the context.
```php
use Behat\Behat\Context\Context;
use Behat\Mink\Session;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\RouterInterface;
final class DemoContext implements Context
{
/** @var Session */
private $session;
/** @var RouterInterface */
private $router;
public function __construct(Session $session, RouterInterface $router)
{
$this->session = $session;
$this->router = $router;
}
/**
* @Then I visit some page
*/
public function visitSomePage(): void
{
$this->session->visit($this->router->generate('some_route'));
}
}
```
_Calling any method on Mink-related services in the constructor is not permitted and will cause errors._
### Shared services
This integration provides the following services to use inside Symfony container:
* **`behat.mink`** (autowired by `\Behat\Mink\Mink`) - the Mink service
* **`behat.mink.default_session`** (autowired by `\Behat\Mink\Session`) - the default Mink session for the current scenario
* **`behat.mink.parameters`** (autowired by `\FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension\Mink\MinkParameters`) - an object
containing the configuration parameters of `MinkExtension` (implementing `\ArrayAccess` so that it can be treated as an array)
* **`behat.driver.service_container`** - service container used by the `symfony` Mink driver, useful for assertions based on
application state after a request has been handled
## Differences from Behat/Symfony2Extension
### Contexts as services
In _Behat/Symfony2Extension_ the dependencies of a context are defined in the Behat configuration file. In this extension,
contexts are defined as services - this makes reusing suites effortless, also allowing to support autowiring and autoconfiguration.
### Isolated driver
The Mink driver provided with this extension differs from the one provided with _Behat/Symfony2Extension_,
as it uses an isolated application kernel instance, so that services state changes within your contexts does not affect
the driver results. With that limitation, changing the driver to a different one is seamless. For more information, look
at [this issue](https://github.com/Behat/Symfony2Extension/issues/112).
## Configuration reference
By default, if no confguration is passed, _SymfonyExtension_ will try its best to guess it.
The full configuration tree looks like that:
```yaml
# behat.yaml.dist / behat.yaml
default:
extensions:
FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension:
bootstrap: ~
kernel:
class: ~
path: ~
environment: ~
debug: ~
```
* **`bootstrap`**:
It is a path to the file requried once while the extension is loaded. You can use this file to set up your testing
environment - set some enviornment variables or preload an external file.
If you do not pass any, it would look for either `config/bootstrap.php` (Symfony 4/5) or `app/autoload.php` (Symfony 3).
If none are found, no file would be loaded.
* **`kernel.class`**:
It is a fully qualified class name of the application kernel class.
If you do not pass any, it would look for either `App\Kernel` (Symfony 4/5) or `AppKernel` (Symfony 3).
If none are found, an exception would be thrown and you would be required to specify it explicitly.
* **`kernel.path`**:
It is a path to the file containing the application kernel class. You might want to set it if your kernel is not
autoloaded by Composer's autoloaded.
If `kernel.class` is not defined, it would automatically use `app/AppKernel.php` if `AppKernel` class was autoconfigured.
* **`kernel.environment`**:
It allows you to force using a given environment. If it is not set, it uses `APP_ENV` environment variable if defined
or falls back to `test`.
* **`kernel.debug`**:
It allows you to force enabling or disabling debug mode. If it is not set, it uses `APP_DEBUG` environment variable
if defined or falls back to `true`.
