About "behat --definitions" about behat HOT 3 CLOSED

U r doing something crazy :-) Explain how you installed behat and how you use it (what command you call from where).

from behat.

Hi Konstantin!

I just installed Behat as you say here http://docs.behat.org/quick_intro.html#method-1-pear

Anyway, when right now I call "behat --description" I'm getting this:

~$ behat -d

[InvalidArgumentException]
Features path "/home/me/features" does not exist

behat [-c|--config="..."] [-p|--profile="..."] [--init] [-f|--format="..."] [--out="..."] [--colors] [--no-colors] [--no-time] [--lang="..."] [--no-paths] [--no-snippets] [--snippets-paths] [--no-multiline] [--expand] [--story-syntax] [-d|--definitions] [--name="..."] [--tags="..."] [--rerun="..."] [--strict] [features]

Then I installed BehatBundle on Symfony 2.0.3

First, Behat doesn't gets step definitions from space :-) In order for him to read them, you should show him where to search.
By default, your descriptions live in Context class: http://docs.behat.org/guides/4.context.html. So in order to define and list them, you should create that class first. The shortest way to do this is with behat --init: http://docs.behat.org/quick_intro.html#basic-usage.

When you call behat without arguments, it assumes, that you have features folder (which contains your features AND context) inside the current working directory, which in your case is not.

Next, BehatBundle comes with it's own behat runner, which you should use instead of behat: app/console behat. How to use it you should read here: http://docs.behat.org/bundle/index.html#prepare-your-bundle-for-behat

To see the list of Mink steps as in article on our blog, you should follow the steps in this manual: http://docs.behat.org/cookbook/behat_and_mink.html. Or in this, in case you want to use BehatBundle: http://docs.behat.org/bundle/index.html#mink-integration-minkcontext

And i think it would be better if you could just read the documentation more carefuly, cuz everything i've just said are well explained there ;-)
