Overview

Using a Python BDD test runner like behave, create living documentation from your BDD feature files. This library will create documents that contain up-to-date information about your BDD specs.

Current supported document types:

• *.mmark files (to be used by Hugo)

Installation

pip install livingdocs

Quick Start

Using a test runner like behave, you can generate documents for each feature, scenario and step. In environment.py, you can use the DocsMaker to capture this information:

from livingdocs.maker import DocsMaker

def before_all(context):
    context.docs = DocsMaker('feature')

def before_scenario(context, scenario):
    context.docs.start_scenario(context, scenario)

def after_scenario(context, scenario):
    context.docs.end_scenario(context, scenario)

def before_feature(context, feature):
    context.docs.start_feature(context, feature)

def after_feature(context, feature):
    context.docs.end_feature(context, feature)

def before_step(context, step):
    context.docs.start_step(context, step)

def after_step(context, step):
    """
    if context.browser is an instance
    of Selenium Webdriver, then it will
    take a snapshot of this step.
    """
    context.docs.end_step(context, step)

Development

First create a virtual env, then to run the tests use:

tox -e py27
