Predefined request, you will need to have a running Varbase website: - Apache/http/https server. - PHP server, and have the mod\_rewrite enabled. - MySQL server. - Configure your PHP/MySQL to work well with Varbase, Have a look at snippets. - Download Varbase from Drupal website. - Install Varbase by following the Installing Varbase 7.x-3.x - documentation page. - Download Varbase Behat: After that you can go through the following steps. --- 1. If you have a Varbase testing site at this location ``` /var/www/html/testing/docroot ``` --- 2. Download the latest Behat package from repository, and place it in the folder as below. ``` /var/www/html/testing/behat ``` --- 3. Change the base url value in behat.varbase.yml file, to the domain or the local virtual domain. ``` base_url: 'http://localhost/testing/docroot' ``` --- 4. Go to ../behat/ Then run the following commands to install all required packages, Libraries from vendors. ``` $ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php $ php composer.phar install ``` --- 5. Open a new terminal window then start selenium2 at the port 4445. You can change the worker selenium robot server and the port number by changing the parameter. ``` "wd_host: 127.0.0.1:4445/wd/hub" ``` in the behat.varbase.yml file. or you can get the selenium stand alone server from then you could run this command in the same location in the terminal ``` $ java -jar selenium-*.jar -port 4445 ``` You can Install and configure selenium server to run on the selenium worker server by using our command. ``` $ sh ./tools/install-selenium-server/install-selenium-server-2.53.1.sh ``` --- 6. Run the behat command at ../behat/ ``` $ bin/behat features/varbase/step2-apply-tests/01-website-base-requirements_user-registration_only-admins-login_v4-0.feature ``` ================================================================================ ``` Feature: Website Base Requirements - User Registration - Only admins login As an anonymous user I will not be able to register as a user in the website So that I will need a site admin or super admin to add me to the website Background: Given I am an anonymous user @local @development @staging @production Scenario: Check that create new account options does not appear for anonymous users. When I go to "/user" And I wait Then I should not see "Create new account" @local @development @staging @production Scenario: Check that only admin can create an account. When I go to "/user/register" And I wait Then I should see "Access denied" @local @development @staging @production Scenario: Verify that anonymous users cannot access admin pages. When I go to "/admin" And I wait Then I should see "Access denied" 3 scenarios (3 passed) 9 steps (9 passed) 0m2.21s (59.89Mb) ``` ================================================================================ --- 7. Run this command with the .feature file to run the Gherkin Script in it to the installed site. ``` $ bin/behat features/varbase/your-gherkin-feature.feature $ bin/behat features/project-name/your-gherkin-feature.feature ``` --- 8. Run this command to print all available step definitions ``` $ bin/behat -di ``` ``` - use -dl to just list definition expressions. - use -di to show definitions with extended info. - use -d 'needle' to find specific definitions. ``` All Varbase custom step definitions are tagged with #varbase tag. Example : after a run for bin/behat -di command. ================================================ [](#example--after-a-run-for--binbehat--di-command) ``` default | Then /^I should see image with the "([^"]*)" title text$/ | #varbase : To Find an image with the title text attribute. | Example 1: Then I should see image with the "Flag Earth" title text | at `VarbaseContext::iShouldSeeImageWithTheTitleText()` default | Then /^I should see image with the "([^"]*)" alt text$/ | #varbase : To Find an image with the alt text attribute. | Example 1: Then I should see image with the "Flag Earth" alt text | at `VarbaseContext::iShouldSeeImageWithTheAltText()` ``` ================================================================================ Scenarios are tagged with the Behat tags of: - @local = Local - @development = Development server. - @staging = Staging and testing server. - @production = Production live server. So that we only run bin/behat --tags with the right tag for the environment. Example: ================================================================================ ``` $ bin/behat --tags '@development' features/varbase/ ``` ``` Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @development tag. ``` ================================================================================ ``` $ bin/behat --tags '@staging' features/varbase/ ``` ``` Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @staging tag. ``` ================================================================================ ``` $ bin/behat --tags '@production' features/varbase/ ``` ``` Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @production tag. ``` ================================================================================ 9. To see the report in HTML.
