Testing Area/Behat Testing/Steps

Use these steps to create Behat tests
Copy and paste the steps in the order your need into a text editor (ie gedit or vim) to create your tests.

Note: Replace the "And" with "Given, When, Then" where necessary. Replace Selectors and Elements with one from the list of Selectors and Elements

The fastest way to write test is using parts of previous tests. In the terminal type the following command to search through all the feature files for what you are looking for:

 grep --color=auto -RniP -C 3 --include *.feature '(given|when|then|and).*delete.*activity' *

Replace delete and activity with the words that you specifically need

To see the list of current tests from your Mahara directory

grep -RiPoh 'Scenario:(\s+)\K(.*)$' test/
