Cucumber step documentation.
This is a small script that reads Cucumber/Gherkin step definition files and outputs pretty-printed documentation of those steps. It is meant as a tool for developers to easily see what step definitions already exist.
Currently supported output formats include HTML and Confluence wiki markup. The documentation can be pushed into a wiki using the [Confluence Publisher Plugin] cpp for Jenkins. Adding outputters for other formats is straightforward.
ruby cuke-steps.rb [options] <directories...>
In its simplest form:
ruby cuke-steps.rb features/
Supported options:
-
-f FORMAT, --format FORMAT
Select output format, either "html" or "cf" -
-o FILE, --output FILE
Output to FILE, default "steps.html" or "steps.cf" -
-h, --help
Usage instructions
This will scan the provided directories for step definition files (*.rb) and output the documentation in the specified file.
The tool supports having step definitions in multiple directories. It will generate a separate section for each directory specified on the command line.
- Create a gem out of it
- Add options for defining a base URL prefix and postfix, and make the file names in the output link to a source repo or Jenkins workspace
