mocha-nightwatch-cucumber

mocha-nightwatch-cucumber is a nightwatch compatible UI module for mocha that allows you to describe your features using Given/When/Then!

Installing

You should first have mocha installed:

npm install -g mocha

Then install mocha-nightwatch-cucumber, either globally or inside your project:

npm install -g mocha-nightwatch-cucumber

Usage

Write your feature(s):

{expect} = require 'chai'

Feature 'Math', ->
  Scenario 'Incrementing numbers', ->
    Given 'A number that starts at 0', ->
      @n = 0

    When 'the number is incremented', ->
      @n++

    Then 'it becomes 1', ->
      expect(@n).to.equal 1

Or if you prefer plan ole js:

var expect = require('chai').expect;

Feature('Math', function() {
  Scenario('Incrementing numbers', function() {
    Given('A number that starts at 0', function() {
      this.n = 0;
    });
    When('the number is incremented', function() {
      this.n++;
    });
    Then('it becomes 1', function() {
      expect(this.n).to.equal(1);
    });
  });
});

Then run mocha:

mocha --ui mocha-nightwatch-cucumber test/*

And you get:

What's going on?

mocha-cucumber aliases Scenario and Feature as alieses to mocha's exising describe, and Given/When/Then/And/But as aliases to mocha's it BDD methods.

describe and it still work as usual, so you can combine your cucumber features with BDD specs and it will Just Work(tm).
