BehatChainedStepsExtension
==========================

[](#behatchainedstepsextension)

This Behat Extension does two things:

- Trigger BeforeStep and AfterStep hooks when using Chained Steps
- Display pass/fail output in console for Chained Steps

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Install using composer:

```
"jmauerhan/chained-steps-extension": "dev-master@dev"

```

Configuration
=============

[](#configuration)

Configure the Extension in behat.yml. You must use the formatter.

```
default:
  extensions:
    JMauerhan\ChainedStepsExtension\Extension:
      trigger_hooks: true
      show_chained_steps: true
  formatter:
    name: 'JMauerhan\ChainedStepsExtension\PrettyChainedStepsFormatter'

```

Options/Defaults
----------------

[](#optionsdefaults)

```
trigger_hooks: true
show_chained_steps: true (If trigger_hooks is false, show_chained_steps must be false).
tester:
  step:
    class: JMauerhan\ChainedStepsExtension\StepTester

```

#### Known Limitations or Quirks

[](#known-limitations-or-quirks)

- Currently the teigger\_hooks and show\_chained\_steps options do not change when set to false, this is a todo. The extension needed some options to work, so I put these in as placeholders
- Chained Steps used within Scenario Outlines will not be printed by the formatter. The @BeforeStep and @AfterStep hooks will still be triggered between chained steps during the Scenario Outline Examples execution.
