Use Behat step through extension which is a module that will allow you to easily to step through a certain feature without having to add specific code for it. This is the GitHub overview:

When debugging a particular scenario, use the --step-through flag at the CLI:

bin/behat --step-through features/my-failing-feature

After each step you will see the message

[Paused after "" - press enter to continue]

The Behat test suite will stay in this suspended state until a carriage return is received, to allow you to do any inspections necessary.
