Using Cucumber with Gradle with tags

I want to run Cucumber from Gradle with the possibility to specify tags. Here is a build.gradle to do this:

• gradle cucumber - will run all cucumber scenarios but not these tagged with @Ignore
• gradle cucumber -P tags=@Smoketest - will run all smoketests but again will ignore these with the tag @Ignore.

Define cucumber environment in .couchapprc

When you set-up a .couchapprc file you can define different databases, hosts ... for different environments (see couchapp doc).
To use these set-up when running cucumber I modify the env.rb mentioned here. It use the test environment defined in .couchapprc for cucumber scenarios.


Example .couchapprc file:

Culerity, Cucumber and Couchapp - Part 2

Some further modifications in the files mentioned here were necessary to get the initial setup runable.
(System configuration: WinXP, JRuby 1.5.1, CouchDB 0.11, couchapp 0.6.2)

1. step_definitions/common_culerity_steps.rb - add this
   
   1. def couchapp
   2.   'rem' # enter your couchapp name here
   3. end
2. support/paths.rb - modify
   
   Before:
   
   1.     when /start page/                                            
   2.       "/#{database}/_design/#{database}/index.html"
   3.     else                                                        
   4.  
   After:
   
   1.     when /start page/
   2.       "/#{database}/_design/#{couchapp}/index.html"
   3.     else
3. step_definitions/common_culerity_steps.rb - remove ":resynchronize => true," from
   
   1.     $browser = Culerity::RemoteBrowserProxy.new $server, {
   2.       :browser => :firefox,
   3.       :javascript_exceptions => true,
   4.       :resynchronize => true,
   5.       :status_code_exceptions => true}
   6.  
4. start_page.feature - modify the example scenario to
   
   1.   Scenario: go to the start page        
   2.     When I go to the start page          
   3.     Then I should see the text "Generated CouchApp"

After this modifications I got:

E:\projects\privat\rem>jruby -S cucumber --no-color
Feature: start page
  In order to feel welcome
  As a user
  I want to be welcomed on the start page

  Scenario: go to the start page                    # features\start_page.feature:7
2010-07-10 17:01:12 [INFO] Visit your CouchApp here:
http://localhost:5984/hejhej/_design/rem/index.html
    When I go to the start page                     # features/step_definitions/common_culerity_steps.rb:90
    Then I should see the text "Generated CouchApp" # features/step_definitions/common_culerity_steps.rb:119

Culerity, Cucumber and Couchapp

Starting a new couchapp application I want to try BDD. I found a small tutorial how to testing couchapps with cucumber and culerity. Unfortunatly I have to deal with WinXP, and so I run into some trouble because the culerity server doesn't start. Finally I can solve it by insert "jruby " in culerity-0.2.10/lib/culerity.rb, line 28.

Before:

def self.run_server
   IO.popen(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../bin/run_celerity_server.rb", 'r+').extend(ServerCommands)
end

After:

def self.run_server
   IO.popen("jruby " + File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../bin/run_celerity_server.rb", 'r+').extend(ServerCommands)
end

Generic Cucumber Steps

Zwei generische Steps, die das Ergebnis erster Gehversuche mit Cucumber sind. (Factory = factory_girl)

# Match steps like:
# * And I have projects named A, B, C
Given /^I have .+ named (.+)$/ do |names|
  names.split(', ').each do |name|
    Factory.create(name)
  end
end

# Match steps like:
# * And I should have 1 project
# * And I should have 5 users
Then /^I should have ([0-9]+) (.+)$/ do |count, classes|
  Kernel.const_get(classes.singularize.capitalize).count.should == count.to_i
end
