Configures Behave for Python BDD scenarios - `pip install behave`, authors `.feature` files in Gherkin, writes step implementations in `features/steps/*.py`, configures via `environment.py` for setup/teardown hooks, organizes via tags, runs via `behave`. Use for Python codebases that want Cucumber-family BDD without Cucumber-Ruby / Cucumber-JS.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# behave-testing ## Overview Per [behave-docs][bd]: [bd]: https://behave.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ > "**behave is behaviour-driven development, Python style.**" It > employs "tests written in a natural language style, backed up > by Python code." Per [behave-docs][bd]: "Behavior-driven development encourages collaboration between developers, QA and non-technical or business participants in a software project." Per [`cucumber-install`](https://cucumber.io/docs/installation/), Behave is in the **semi-official** Cucumber tier (uses Cucumber components but maintained outside the main org). ## When to use - The codebase is Python and the team uses BDD. - Acceptance criteria are authored in Gherkin (per `gherkin-from-stories`). - pytest with parametrize isn't sufficient - non-engineers read the tests. ## Step 1 - Install ```bash pip install behave ``` ## Step 2 - Project layout Behave's conventional layout: ``` project/ ├── features/ │ ├── cart.feature # Gherkin features │ ├── steps/ │ │ ├── cart_steps.py # step implementations │ │ └── shared_steps.py │ └── environment.py # setup/teardown hooks └── ... ``` …

How to install
mdr add testland/qa/behave-testing@sha256:5d7272882cd0f889The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.83125c6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
