Cucumber: Automatic step file creation?

When i run cucumber it displays the possible steps that i should define, an example from the RSpec book:

1 scenario (1 undefined)
4 steps (4 undefined)
0m0.001s
You can implement step definitions for undefined steps with these snippets:
Given /^I am not yet playing$/ do
  pending
end
When /^I start a new game$/ do
  pending
end
Then /^the game should say “Welcome to CodeBreaker”$/ do
  pending
end
Then /^the game should say “Enter guess:”$/ do
  pending
end

Is there a way that it will automaticly create the step definitions file, so i don't have to rewrite or copy paste by hand but i can just to customize them to be more generic?

Solution

  • Cucumber doesn't offer this feature. Probably because you would have to tell it where to put the step definitions file, and what to name it.
