Available Contexts

In accordance with this new capability, The Drupal Extension includes the following contexts:

RawDrupalContext

A context that provides no step definitions, but all of the necessary functionality for interacting with Drupal, and with the browser via Mink sessions.

DrupalContext

Provides step-definitions for creating users, terms, and nodes.

MinkContext

Builds on top of the Mink Extension and adds steps specific to regions and forms.

MarkupContext

Contains step definitions that deal with low-level markup (such as tags, classes, and attributes).

MessageContext

Step-definitions that are specific to Drupal messages that get displayed (notice, warning, and error).

DrushContext

Allows steps to directly call drush commands.

Custom Contexts

You can structure your own code with additional contexts. See Behat’s testing features documentation for a detailed discussion of how contexts work.
