| Behat is a Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework. This document is a work in progress (STABLE team week off project) and it should not be taken into account for nothing out of this scope nor nothing official.
| | #redirect [[Acceptance testing]] |
| | |
| == Example ==
| |
| The expected behaviours are specified as scenarios.
| |
| | |
| === Basic scenarios ===
| |
| | |
| Scenario: Login as an existing user
| |
| Given I am on "login/index.php"
| |
| When I fill in "username" with "admin"
| |
| And I fill in "password" with "moodle"
| |
| And I press "loginbtn"
| |
| Then I should see "Moodle 101: Course Name"
| |
| | |
| Scenario: Login as an unexisting user
| |
| Given I am on "login/index.php"
| |
| When I fill in "username" with "adminasdasd"
| |
| And I fill in "password" with "moodlesdfasdf"
| |
| And I press "loginbtn"
| |
| Then I should see "Invalid login, please try again"
| |
| | |
| === Complex scenario ===
| |
| The aim of this project is to be able to define scenarios like this. Note the quoted strings are received as variables by the steps definitions which will process them.
| |
| | |
| Scenario: A teacher adds a discussion
| |
| Given I am logged as a "teacher"
| |
| And I go to a course
| |
| And I create a "forum" activity
| |
| And I view the "forum" activity
| |
| When I add a "forum_discussion" filling the fields "subject,message[text]" with "I'm the user subject,Dealing with \, split" # Wrapper step, it will redirect the petition to a "forum_discussion" method
| |
| Then I should see "Discussion"
| |
| And I should see "Subject"
| |
| And I should see "I'm the user subject"
| |
| | |
| In order to be able to process the "logged as a $roleshortname" or the "a course" statements a config file with test data must be set (http://docs.behat.org/guides/7.config.html)
| |
| | |
| == Contexts ==
| |
| Each step are processed in a step definition, which are defined in "context" classes
| |
| | |
| === Contexts Organization ===
| |
| The Features context class is split in different context to ease the step definitions location.
| |
| | |
| * A main FeaturesContext class which extends MinkContext, the basic web development set of actions (http://docs.behat.org/guides/2.definitions.html#definitions-home-featurecontext-class)
| |
| ** Contains all the basic steps definitions like visit($url), pressButton($button) to manage the browser
| |
| ** The cross-component and the most common Moodle actions like iAmLoggedAsA($roleshortname) or aUserAssignedInContextOfContextlevel($roleshortname, $instanceid, $contextlevel) to speed up the creation of scenarios
| |
| * An abstract BaseContext class with helper methods
| |
| * A context for each Moodle component extending BaseContext that has access to the main FeaturesContext class (http://docs.behat.org/guides/4.context.html#using-subcontexts)
