Cucumber has various strategies and implementations that provide users the ability of creating expressive scenarios. Explore Gherkin and the ability of creating expressive scenarios optimizing test outputs.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • Describe the purpose of gherkin in test-driven development and benefits along with the syntax used
    Recognize the purpose of using features in gherkin files and how to implement it to a project
    Define steps and step definitions and how it is implemented in an example
    Use features such as capture groups and wildcards and multiple arguments in cucumber steps
    Describe the available result states for a cucumber scenario and provide examples of scenarios containing steps that lead to these results
    Describe a background section in a cucumber feature file to outline steps common to all scenarios
    Use doc strings and data tables for data that doesn't fit on one line in cucumber scenarios
  • Use scenario outlines to define steps for cucumber scenarios
    Use nest steps in cucumber scenarios
    Describe the use of transforms to remove duplication in cucumber step definitions
    Describe the cucumber world object and refactor steps into ruby helper methods that are added to the world
    Describe the uses for directories and tagging cucumber scenarios at feature and scenario level
    Recognize the implementations of steps and step definitions, and how expressive scenarios work
