Gherkin Steps and additional module functions for the Codeception Database module
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[](#gherkin-steps-and-additional-module-functions-for-the-codeception-database-module)

### How to use

[](#how-to-use)

#### Extended module

[](#extended-module)

Use the module `PunktDe\Codeception\Database\Module\Database` instead of the default codeception module `db` in your `codeception.yaml`:

```
modules:
   enabled:
      - PunktDe\Codeception\Database\Module\Database:
         dsn: 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=testdb'
         user: 'root'
         password: ''
         dump: 'tests/_data/dump.sql'
         populate: true
         cleanup: true
         reconnect: true
         waitlock: 10
         ssl_key: '/path/to/client-key.pem'
         ssl_cert: '/path/to/client-cert.pem'
         ssl_ca: '/path/to/ca-cert.pem'
         ssl_verify_server_cert: false
         ssl_cipher: 'AES256-SHA'
         initial_queries:
             - 'CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS temp_db;'
             - 'USE temp_db;'
             - 'SET NAMES utf8;'

```

#### Gherkin steps

[](#gherkin-steps)

Just add the trait `PunktDe\Codeception\Database\ActorTraits\Database` to your testing actor. Then you can use `*.feature` files to write your gherkin tests with the new steps.

##### Example actor
