+Drupal API Driver
+=================
+
+The Drupal API Driver is the fastest and the most powerful of the three
+drivers. Its biggest limitation is that the tests must run on the same server
+as the Drupal site.
+
+Enable the Drupal API Driver
+----------------------------
+To enable the Drupal API driver, edit the behat.yml file, change the api_driver
+to drupal and add the path to the local Drupal installation as shown below:
+
+.. literalinclude:: _static/snippets/behat-api.yml
+ :language: php
+ :linenos:
+ :emphasize-lines: 15,18-19
+
+.. note::
+ It's fine to leave the information for the drush driver in the file. It's
+ the api_driver value that declares which setting will be used for scenarios
+ tagged @api.
+
+Using this driver, you gain the ability to use all the steps in the
+examples below (and more).
+
+.. literalinclude:: _static/snippets/api.feature
