Varbase Behat
Varbase Behat is a standalone testing framework, with a set of Gherkin Features and custom Varbase Context with custom step definitions, and assets, which help with the automatic testing for Varbase websites https://www.vardot.com, (*1)
This page can help you to have all steps, which you need to run the
Behat Gherkin Features to test a varbase website in your localhost machine., (*2)
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 https://bitbucket.org/snippets/Vardot/8rGL/dev-tools-installs snippets.
* Download Varbase from https://www.drupal.org/project/varbase Drupal website.
* Install Varbase by following the Installing Varbase 7.x-3.x
* https://www.drupal.org/node/2570843 documentation page.
* Download Varbase Behat: https://github.com/Vardot/varbase-behat/releases, (*3)
After that you can go through the following steps., (*4)
- If you have a Varbase testing site at this location
/var/www/html/testing/docroot
- Download the latest Behat package from https://github.com/Vardot/varbase-behat
repository, and place it in the folder as below.
/var/www/html/testing/behat
- Change the base url value in behat.varbase.yml file, to the domain or the
local virtual domain.
base_url: 'http://localhost/testing/docroot'
- 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
- 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
http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/
then you could run this command in the same location in the terminal, (*5)
$ java -jar selenium-*.jar -port 4445
You can Install and configure selenium server to run on the selenium worker
server by using our command., (*6)
$ sh ./tools/install-selenium-server/install-selenium-server-2.53.1.sh
- 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
================================================================================, (*7)
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

- 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
- 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., (*9)
Example : after a run for bin/behat -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()`
================================================================================, (*10)
Scenarios are tagged with the Behat tags of:
* @local = Local
* @development = Development server.
* @staging = Staging and testing server.
* @production = Production live server., (*11)
So that we only run bin/behat --tags with the right tag for the environment., (*12)
Example:
$ bin/behat --tags '@development' features/varbase/
Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @development tag.
================================================================================, (*13)
$ bin/behat --tags '@staging' features/varbase/
Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @staging tag.
================================================================================, (*14)
$ bin/behat --tags '@production' features/varbase/
Which it will run Scenarios which has got the @production tag.
================================================================================, (*15)
-
To see the report in HTML. Go and open this file in a browser.
../behat/reports/index.html
You will see the latest report for latest run., (*16)
if you want to custom a report you can add
--format pretty --out std
--format html --out reports/report-$( date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S' ), (*17)
to format and select your output., (*18)
Example:, (*19)
$ bin/behat features/example.feature --format pretty --out std --format html --out reports/report-$( date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S' )
-
If you want to run all Gherkin Features over a new Varbase site.
You will need to create the list of Testing users, and Add French, and Arabic
languages to the site., (*20)
You can run the following command:
$ bin/behat features/varbase/ --format pretty --out std --format html --out reports/report-$( date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S' )
After that you can see the report in the ../behat/reports folder.
If you want to run the test in steps, if you are not interested in the
initialization and cleaning up after the test.
$ bin/behat features/varbase/step1-init-tests
$ bin/behat features/varbase/step2-apply-tests
$ bin/behat features/varbase/step3-cleanup-tests
- If you want to test the installation process feature, you will need to use the
varbase Install config file, as you can see in the following command.
$ bin/behat --config=behat.varbase-install.yml tools/install-varbase/default-installation.feature
