cucumber-steps-parser

So you are using cucumber.js to test your Typescript project in a BDD fashion. That's a great choice! 🎉 However, as the project grows, you start to have problems to remember all the step definitions you have created when writing new feature tests.

Here is where cucumber-steps-parser might come handy for you. This simple utility crawls a file or folder and looks for all the existing step definitions. Easy as that!

You can use it inside your application:

const { getFolderCucumberSentences } = require('cucumber-steps-parser');
const sentences = getFolderCucumberSentences('path/to/your/project');

And you can also run it from the terminal:

npm install --global cucumber-steps-parser
cucumber-steps-parser path/to/your/project

Options

You can customize how cucumber-steps-parser finds the step definition files in your application through the following configuration parameters:

recursive: Whether the folders found in the given path are recursively crawled. Defaults to true
filenameRegExp: Only the filenames matching this regular expression will be parsed. Defaults to typescript files only (/^.*\.ts$/)

const { getFolderCucumberSentences } = require('cucumber-steps-parser');
const sentences = getFolderCucumberSentences('path/to/your/project', {
    recursive: false,
    filenameRegExp: /^.*\.step\.ts$/
});

cucumber-steps-parser path/to/your/project --no-recursive --filename "^.*\.step\.ts$"

Have fun!
