1.8.0 / 2020-03-11

New features:

• Auto-start the session on first call to visit. Mink::getSession() will no longer start the session automatically.
• Added support for symfony/css-selector 4 and 5

Bug fixes:

• Fixed the message when reporting the deprecation of ExpectationException::getSession()
• Fixed support for XPath selectors using | inside strings or conditions rather than as a top-level union
• Fixed compatibility with PHP 7.2 not allowing to use count on strings

Testsuite:

• Added PHP 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4 in the CI
• Removed HHVM from CI as they stopped supporting PHP compatibility

Driver testsuite:

• The driver testsuite is no longer part of this package. Use mink/driver-testsuite to run driver tests instead.

Misc:

• Changed phpdoc types from Boolean to boolean to be compatible with psalm type checking

1.7.1 / 2016-03-05

Bug fixes:

• Refactored the CssSelector to use the new API of the Symfony CssSelector component to be compatible with Symfony 3

Testsuite:

• Disallowed failures on PHP 7 on Travis (tests were passing since a long time)

Driver testsuite:

• Fixed the driver testsuite to account for driver inheritance when checking recommended practices
• Added a test for cookie values with semicolon, to ensure all drivers support it
• Improved the window resize test to consider headless browsers
• Fixed the compatibility of the testsuite with PHPUnit 5
• Added a test ensuring that wait() always return a boolean even when the JS expression does not cast the value
• Added HTML escaping of submitted values in the driver testsuite web-fixtures

Misc:

• Removed the Mink testsuite from archives generated by Github to make them smaller

1.7.0 / 2015-09-20

New features:

• Added Session::getResponseHeader to access a response header easily
• Added support for header assertions
• Added a forward compatibility layer for drivers to allow them to prepare for Mink 2.0 (they won't require any change if they use it). They should now overwrite CoreDriver::findElementXpaths instead of implementing find and setSession themselves.
• Added escaping of the locator in the NamedSelector rather than expecting the caller to perform the escaping. Passing an escaped locator is still supported but deprecated.
• Remove the dependency on the Session in expectation exceptions. Passing the session in the exception constructor is now deprecated. The driver should be passed instead.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed the URL assertions when comparing paths ending in .php
• Silenced deprecation warnings (following the Symfony convention) to make them less invasive. Use the symfony/phpunit-bridge to get them reported when using Mink in your PHPUnit tests.
• Fixed NodeElement::hasClass in case the class attribute contains newlines

Testsuite:

• Made the testsuite compatible with PHPUnit strict timing mode (only the library testsuite, not the driver one)
• Added testing against PHP 7
• Added testing against lowest version of dependencies to ensure we got the lower bounds right

Driver testsuite:

• Added an extra test to ensure the right behavior when getting the HTML with empty elements
• Added a few more safeguards to ensure test failures rather than fatal errors for misbehaving drivers
• Added a test ensuring that drivers follow recommended practices

Misc:

• Added a few missing deprecation warnings for deprecated APIs or classes.

1.6.1 / 2015-02-04

Bug fixes:

• Added a check for empty path in WebAssert::cleanUrl()

Driver testsuite:

• Added an extra test to ensure the right behavior for traversal

• Switched the repository structure to use PSR-4
• Updated URLs for the move to the new Github organization

1.6.0 / 2014-09-26

• [BC break] Changed the named selector to prefer exact matches over partial matches
• [BC break] Changed NodeElement::getValue for checkboxes to return the value rather than the checked state (use isChecked for that)
• Fixed the XPath prefixing when searching inside an existing element
• Refactored the driver testsuite entirely and expand it to cover drivers entirely (covering many more cases for consistency)
• Changed NodeElement::setValue to support any fields rather than only input elements
• Removed the wrapping of any driver-level exception in a MinkException on invalid usage as it was making the code too complex
• Fixed the matching of the input type in the named selector to be case insensitive according to the HTML spec
• Introduced Behat\Mink\Selector\Xpath\Escaper to allow reusing the XPath escaping
• Deprecated Element::getSession. Code needing the session should get it from outside rather than the element
• Changed ElementNotFoundException to extend from ExpectationException
• Added Element::getOuterHtml to get the HTML code of the element including itself
• Fixed the name selectors to match on the placeholder only for textual inputs
• Enforced consistent behavior for drivers on 4xx and 5xx response to return the response rather than throwing an exception
• Added Element::waitFor to allow retrying some code until it succeeds or the timeout is reached
• Added Element::isValid to check whether an element still exists in the page
• Made Session::executeScript compatible across drivers by ensuring they all support the same syntaxes for the JS expression
• Made Session::evaluateScript compatible across drivers by ensuring they all support the same syntaxes for the JS expression
• Removed hasClass from DocumentElement (instead of triggering a fatal error)
• Added testing on HHVM to ensure consistency
• Fixed NodeElement::getTagName to ensure that the tag name is lowercase for all drivers
• Fixed Element::hasAttribute to ensure it supports attributes with an empty value
• Fixed the field selector to avoid matching inputs with the type submit or reset
• Changed the button XPath selection to accept reset buttons as well
• Changed Session::wait to return the condition value rather than nothing
• Added Session::getWindowName and Session::getWindowNames to get the name of the current and of all windows
• Added Session::maximizeWindow to maximize the window
• Added NodeElement::isSelected to check whether an <option> is selected
• Added NodeElement::submitForm to allow submitting a form without using a button
• Added assertions about the value of an attribute
• Added the anchor in the assertion on the URL in WebAssert
