Behat v0.2.4 (formatters bugfix)

I’ve introduced very serious bug in v0.2.3, that causes Behat to fails on UNIX (not MacOS) systems, because for UNIX 'prettyFormatter.php' != 'PrettyFormatter.php', but for MacOS fs 'prettyFormatter.php' == 'PrettyFormatter.php'. And i’m on MacOS =/ Sorry for that, i’ve fixed bug and uploaded new Behat version to pear.everzet.com & to GitHub.

Also, v0.2.4 introduces console colors support autodetection. So, on systems, that not supporting colors (hey, Windows!) there’s no need to specify --no-color option anymore.

Update now!

I’ve updated Behat to 0.2.3 version. It includes bunch of bug-fixes and code improvements:

http://github.com/everzet/Behat/compare/v0.2.2…v0.2.3

I’ve moved Loading routines for Features, StepDefinitions, Hooks inside their own Containers with ability to specify custom loaders (annotated classes for example).

Also, i’ve updated sfBehatPlugin to 1.1.0:

http://github.com/everzet/sfBehatPlugin/compare/v1.0.2…v1.1.0

upgrade it with:

./symfony plugins:upgrade sfBehatPlugin

And update configuration with:

./symfony behat:setup

Now behat.yml moved from project root into config/behat.yml. So all your configs now live in one place!

Also, i’m very happy to say that Symfony2 BehatBundle is on finish line & i will release it tomorrow!

BDD in PHP or “Just Be Hat”

Today is a great day. Why? Because from today we can write Cucumber-like behavior tests in php.

I’ve finished first alpha of Behat. Behat – is behavior driven development framework for php, based on Cucumber’s Gherkin syntax. It means, that it works with same feature files, Cucumber does & generate almost the same output, Cucumber does. But inside… Inside it’ modern, beautifull php 5.3 project build on top of:

  • Symfony Dependency Injection Container component
  • Symfony Event Dispatcher component
  • Symfony Console component

It means, Behat very fast, flexible and even beautifull to use right now. Go to official site. Or check the code.
