Basic usage

Activate the extension by specifying its class in your behat.yml:

Configuration

• output_path - The location where Behat will save the HTML reports. The path defined here is relative to %paths.base% and, when omitted, will be default set to the same path.
• renderer - The engine that Behat will use for rendering, thus the types of report format Behat should output (multiple report formats are allowed, separate them by commas). Allowed values are:
  • Behat2 for generating HTML reports like they were generated in Behat 2.
  • Twig A new and more modern format based on Twig.
  • Minimal An ultra minimal HTML output.
• file_name - (Optional) Behat will use a fixed filename and overwrite the same file after each build. By default, Behat will create a new HTML file using a random name ("renderer name"_"date hour").
• print_args - (Optional) If set to true, Behat will add all arguments for each step to the report. (E.g. Tables).
• print_outp - (Optional) If set to true, Behat will add the output of each step to the report. (E.g. Exceptions).
• loop_break - (Optional) If set to true, Behat will add a separating break line after each execution when printing Scenario Outlines.

Screenshot

The facility exists to embed a screenshot into test failures.

Currently png is the only supported image format.

In order to embed a screenshot, you will need to take a screenshot using your favourite webdriver and store it in the following filepath format:

results/html/assets/screenshots/{{feature_name}}/{{scenario_name}}.png

The feature_name and scenario_name variables will need to be the relevant item names without spaces.

Below is an example of FeatureContext methods which will produce an image file in the above format:

Note that the currentScenario variable will need to be at class level and generated in the @BeforeScenario method as Behat does not currently support obtaining the current Scenario in the @AfterStep method, where the screenshot is generated
