Where does cucumber.yml live?

Testing RSpec

Where do I put cucumber.yml? I can’t find anything mentioned in the
documentation.

Thanks

In the project root (or wherever you’re typing commands from).

Ok, I tried config and features to no avail, I guess that’s the only
option left

Is this documented anywhere, or are people expected to just know it?

I added the information to the wiki in one or two places, having been
bitten by the same expectation you had, and having read through the code
that seeks out that file.

I think it should look in places named in the options, plus the config/
directory, personally. The config directory is where I’d want to put
it, but not every project in the world is a rails project, so I add a
grain of salt to that impulse.

Randy, John: You really don’t read my responses, do you? Or is there
some gmail lag issue going on here?

Since ppl are having a hard time finding this, I added
http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/cucumberyml, which
references
http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/running-features.
I also changed the header of the relevant section to “Defining
‘profiles’ in cucumber.yml”

Should be easy to find now.

Not sure who’s causing the lag, but yeah.

My hope was to help in a way that I could, freeing the “big guns” to
focus on things I’m less suited for at this moment.

That reminds me: Was there a reason for using : to run a
feature at a line instead of spec’s -l ?

I think it was to keep in line with how Cucumber outputs the backtrace
in the CLI. So you can simply copy and paste the line from the output
to run just that one scenario.

I actually much prefer the concise notation and I would like to see
RSpec adopt it.

Exactly as Ben said. In addition it was also used as it made it nicer
when running multiple lines in the same file

I agree. RSpec will adopt it as soon as it receives your patch :slight_smile:

That would be great. I’ve been used to seeing the colon notation for a
quarter of a century. :slight_smile:

I know this post is from a few years ago, and so these
links are broken now. Any updated links have the same information?

All I see is links to Cucumber. Maybe try the Cucumber mailing list?

I’m curious - why after all these years do so many Cucumber-related
issues still get posted on the RSpec list? Is there an outdated FAQ
lurking somewhere?

Gayle,

I’ve set a reply-to pointing to the cucumber list. I’d advise going to
http://groups.google.com/group/cukes and joining that list.
