2.6.1+ Behat?! I just got ready to launch it, and I found this...

I am very much a novice, and I have never heard of behat. I am researching it, and I am trying to figure out...

1) What exactly is it?

2) Is it necessary?

3) How EXACTLY would I do it on MY site?

 

I am reviewing http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Acceptance_testing#Installation and https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-37046 and I may answer my own questions soon, but some of the information is in tech-speak, and I don't know the language well at all. I am a health care provider making courses for people....I am not a computer wizard....at all...

My site will not use forums...so do I not need this testing at all?

Wendi,

Behat is mainly a tool for developers to automate the testing of computer programs or web site function. You don't need it to run Moodle.  Just ignore it.

Hello Wendi,

As mentioned by Floyd, it is a developer tool for automating testing. If you are developing new feature or want to test existing feature then you can use Behat to test it without manually doing so.

For example: you have installed moodle site and not sure if assignment will work on your server (speed limitation, disabled etc.), then you can use behat to do that testing for you, rather then manually creating assignment and submitting assignment as student.

Would be nice to look at Behat introduction to get more idea http://docs.behat.org/quick_intro.html
