If you're on PR# release:

git submodule add -f git://github.com/Behat/BehatBundle.git vendor/Behat/BehatBundle

git submodule add -f git://github.com/Behat/Gherkin.git vendor/Behat/Gherkin
git submodule add -f git://github.com/Behat/Behat.git vendor/Behat/Behat

If you follow with deps:

[BehatBundle]
    git=https://github.com/Behat/BehatBundle.git
    target=/bundles/Behat/BehatBundle

[Gherkin]
    git=https://github.com/Behat/Gherkin.git
    target=/behat/Gherkin

[Behat]
    git=https://github.com/Behat/Behat.git
    target=/behat/Behat

Create your bundle and run:

app/console behat:test:bundle --init Acme\\YourBundle

this will create next structure:

path/to/Acme/YourBundle
├── Features
│   ├── feature1.feature
│   ├── feature2.feature
│   ├── feature3.feature
│   └── Context
│       └── FeatureContext.php
├── ...
└── ...

If you look closely at path/to/Acme/YourBundle/Features/Context/FeatureContext.php, you'll see, that it extends base BehatContext, which comes with BehatBundle and just gives you ability to get applications kernel or container.

If you want to test web interface of your application with Mink:

1. Install MinkBundle and Mink as described here.
2. Extend MinkContext instead of basic BehatContext in your FeatureContext class.

If you extended your FeatureContext from MinkContext, then you could use one of the predefined web steps. You can check all available for specific context (bundle) definitions with:

app/console behat Your\\Bundle\\Namespace --definitions

or even in your language:

app/console behat Your\\Bundle\\Namespace --definitions --lang fr

BehatBundle provides some very useful CLI commands for running your features.

This command will create initial bundle features directory:

php app/console behat --init Acme\\DemoBundle

This command runs all features inside single bundle:

php app/console behat Acme\\DemoBundle

This command runs specified feature:

php app/console behat src/Application/HelloBundle/Tests/Features/SingleFeature.feature

All features inside src/Application/HelloBundle/Tests/Features folder:

php app/console behat src/Application/HelloBundle/Tests/Features

Single scenario on line 21 in specified feature:

php app/console behat src/Application/HelloBundle/Tests/Features/SingleFeature.feature:21
