feature(message, context \\ quote do _ end, contents)

View Source (macro)

Defines a feature with a message.

Adding import Wallaby.Feature to your test module will import the Wallaby.Feature.feature/3 macro. This is a drop in replacement for the ExUnit.Case.test/3 macro that you normally use.

Adding use Wallaby.Feature to your test module will act the same as import Wallaby.Feature, as well as configure your Ecto repos properly and pass a Wallaby.Session into the test context.

Sessions

When called with use, the Wallaby.Feature.feature/3 macro will automatically start a single session using the currently configured capabilities and is passed to the feature via the :session key in the context.

feature "test with a single session", %{session: session} do
  # ...
end

If you would like to start multiple sessions, assign the @sessions attribute to the number of sessions that the feature should start, and they will be pass to the feature via the :sessions key in the context.

@sessions 2
feature "test with a two sessions", %{sessions: [session_1, sessions_2]} do
  # ...
end

If you need to change the capabilities sent to the session for a specific feature, you can assign @sessions to a list of keyword lists of the options to be passed to Wallaby.start_session/1. This will start the number of sessions equal to the size of the list.

@sessions [
  [capabilities: %{}]
]
feature "test with different capabilities", %{session: session} do
  # ...
end

If you don't wish to use Wallaby.Feature in your test module, you can add the following code to configure Ecto and create a session.

setup tags do
  :ok = Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.checkout(YourApp.Repo)

  unless tags[:async] do
    Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.mode(YourApp.Repo, {:shared, self()})
  end

  metadata = Phoenix.Ecto.SQL.Sandbox.metadata_for(YourApp.Repo, self())
  {:ok, session} = Wallaby.start_session(metadata: metadata)

  {:ok, session: session}
end

Screenshots

If you have configured screenshot_on_failure to be true, any exceptions raised during the feature will trigger a screenshot to be taken.
