Isolated Drupal Extension

This behat extension is intended to work together with Drupal Extension and uses Drupal multisite possibilities in order to run tests on separate test site installation.

It works much more like Drupal's BrowserTest. If you have a Drupal site and run a behat command then :

• A new site will be created at sites/simpletest/{timestamp} with an SQLite database and with given in configuration profile name.
• Behat tests will run on this new installation.
• At the end of testing, sites/simpletest directory will be cleaned up if reuse_installation configuration value isn't set to TRUE.

Requirements

This extension is tested with Drupal 8.6. Previous versions are not supported.

Quick start

Modify your behat.yml, add next lines :

  extensions:
    Drupal\DrupalExtension:
     ...
     ...
    undertext\idrupalextension\IsolatedDrupalExtension:
      profile: "standard"
      reuse_installation: TRUE

This extension provides 2 configurable parameters:

• profile : name of the profile to install
• reuse_installation: do not reinstall test site installation each time if set to TRUE
