Codeception utilities
=====================

A handful of generic helper and utility methods for Codeception.

- **seeLinkInSelector/dontSeeLinkInSelector** - looks for a link in a particular CSS or XPath selector.
- **seeElementHasStyle/dontSeeElementHasStyle** - see an element has been applied a style. Allows you to check a single element has a CSS style assigned, e.g. you can check that ".icon-r" class is floated right. Requires WebDriver.
- **seeRegexInSource/dontSeeRegexInSource** - see page source matches a regular expression.

- **fillCkEditor** - Fill a [CKEditor](http://ckeditor.com/) WYSIWYG field.
