This repository contains two powerful extensions for integrating Cucumber-like syntax with Playwright and vitest, enhancing your testing workflow with behavior-driven development (BDD) capabilities.
@jagoral/playwright-cucumber: Extends Playwright with Cucumber-like fixtures which can be used to write your tests in a BDD style.@jagoral/vitest-cucumber: Adds Cucumber-like syntax to Vitest for structured, readable, and maintainable BDD tests.
The core philosophy behind @jagoral/vitest-cucumber and @jagoral/playwright-cucumber is to harness the advantages of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) while maintaining the simplicity and efficiency of test writing. These packages offer a streamlined, type-safe API to seamlessly incorporate Cucumber-like syntax into your Vitest and Playwright testing workflows, emphasizing the most frequently used BDD features.
-
❌ No Feature Files, Just Type-Safe API: Remove the need for separate feature files. Scenarios are defined directly in code, keeping them closer to their implementation and reducing maintenance overhead.
-
📚 Readability and Documentation: Utilize
Given-When-Thensyntax to create well-structured and self-documenting tests that are easy to read and understand, enhancing both technical and non-technical stakeholder engagement. -
📈 Low Learning Curve: Designed to be intuitive, the API minimizes complexity and provides a user-friendly experience, allowing quick adoption with minimal effort.
-
🔄 Interoperability and Flexibility: Blend BDD-style tests with Playwright's or Vitest test definitions, enabling a flexible and incremental approach allowing you to enhance test coverage progressively.
