Standalone Cucumber Test Suite

Introduction

Sometimes you inherit a non Rails or non Rack based web app such as PHP, Perl, Java / JEE, etc. I like using cucumber for functional testing so I put together this project structure to use as a starting point for testing non Ruby web based applications.

I’ve included a simple search.feature examples that uses Google. To switch to use your own development or staging server adjust the URL in features/support/env.rb. I have this example project setup to use Capybara with Webdriver (Selenium) but you can easily switch this to use Culerity or Webrat by editing features/support/env.rb.

Pull requests with updates/enhancements/bug fixes are always welcome!

  • features/*.feature : cucumber features

  • features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb : generic steps that apply to all features

  • features/step_definintions/_steps.rb : steps specific to an individual feature file
