Feature


Feature: Test feature

Scenario: I can handle dynamic response content
Given I am on "/"
Then the response status code should be 200
And I should see "Welcome to Application backend!"
Then I send a "GET" request to "user"
And the response status code should be 200
And the response type should be "application/json"
And the response should contain "Hello"

FeatureContext.php


You should print_r(get_class_methods($client)); and print_r(get_class_methods($this->getSession())); to see what's available for you to use.



namespace Application\BackendBundle\Features\Context;

use Behat\MinkExtension\Context\MinkContext;
use Exception;

class FeatureContext extends MinkContext
{
private $baseUrl;
private $response;

public function __construct(array $parameters)
{
$this->baseUrl = $parameters['base_url'];
}

/**
* @When /^I send a "([^"]*)" request to "([^"]*)"$/
*
* @param $method
* @param $uri
*/
public function iSendARequestTo($method, $uri)
{
$client = $this->getSession()->getDriver()->getClient();
$this->response = $client->request($method, $this->baseUrl.$uri);
}

/**
* @Then /^the response type should be "([^"]*)"$/
*
* @param $type
* @throws Exception
*/
public function theResponseTypeShouldBeJson($type)
{
$headers = $this->getSession()->getResponseHeaders();

if ($headers['Content-Type'][0] != $type) {
throw new Exception('Invalid response type');
}
}
}
