Symfony Extension

Integrates Behat with Symfony (^3.4 and ^4.1).

Inspired by Behat/Symfony2Extension.

Differences

• Built-in symfony driver uses different kernel than the one that is used in the contexts. This means you can always change it to any other driver without any issues and ensures that application behaviour will not be affected by stateful services.

Usage

1. Install it:

   $ composer require friends-of-behat/symfony-extension --dev
   

2. Enable and configure in your Behat configuration:

   # behat.yml
   default:
       # ...
       extensions:
           FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension: ~
   

   Symfony 3 configuration

   FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension:
       kernel:
           bootstrap: 'var/bootstrap.php.cache'
           path: app/AppKernel.php
           class: 'AppKernel'
           env: test
           debug: true
   

   Symfony 4 configuration

   FriendsOfBehat\SymfonyExtension:
       # .env.dist file will be used if .env file does not exist  
       env_file: .env
       kernel:
           class: 'MyTrip\Kernel'
           path: src/Kernel.php
           debug: true
   

   Symfony 4 does not have bootstrap file anymore and the environment is configured in the .env file.
