Minq

Installation

Mink is a php 5.3 library that you’ll use inside your test suites or project. Before you begin, ensure that you have at least PHP 5.3.1 installed.

The recommended way to install Mink with all its dependencies is through Composer:

$ composer require behat/mink

Note

For local installations of composer you must call it like this: $ php composer.phar require behat/mink . In this case you must use the different call php composer.phar everywhere instead of the simple command composer.

Everything will be installed inside vendor folder. Finally, include Composer autoloading script to your project:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

Note

By default, Mink will be installed with no drivers. In order to be able to use additional drivers, you should install them (through composer). Require the appropriate dependencies:

GoutteDriver - behat/mink-goutte-driver

Selenium2Driver - behat/mink-selenium2-driver

BrowserKitDriver - behat/mink-browserkit-driver

ZombieDriver - behat/mink-zombie-driver

SeleniumDriver - behat/mink-selenium-driver

SahiDriver - behat/mink-sahi-driver

WUnitDriver - behat/mink-wunit-driver

If you’re newcomer or just don’t know what to choose, you should probably start with the GoutteDriver and the Selenium2Driver (you will be able to tuneup it later):
