Pause On Fail
=============

[](#pause-on-fail)

This repository demonstrates the usage of Codeception Extension API.

Pause on Fail Extension for Codeception
---------------------------------------

[](#pause-on-fail-extension-for-codeception)

When doing acceptance testing in Codeception, it is often useful to pause when a failure or error occurs, while developing the tests themselves. It lets you inspect the state and find a better way to solve the same problem and continue onwards.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Install [Codeception](http://codeception.com) via Composer
2. Run `composer require --dev ipeevski/pauseonfail`.
3. Include extensions into `codeception.yml` configuration:

Sample:

```
paths:
    tests: tests
    log: tests/_log
    data: tests/_data
    helpers: tests/_helpers
extensions:
    enabled:
      - Codeception\Extension\PauseOnFail
```

4. For the pause to have an effect, you need to run codeception in debugging mode, with the `--debug` flag

Pause
-----

[](#pause)

Class: **Codeception\\Extension\\PauseOnFail**.

If tests run into failure or error, pause and bring up console.
