I have researched how to do each of those items, and I could get them
working
very easily in a lite wiki using only Rails & Ajax. They would run on
any
platform, without special JS or plugins…

This sounds a lot like something I’ve been thinking off, although I
hadn’t got onto the idea of a wiki function for editing - just been
thinking about a HTTP/HTML interface for Cucumber test runs.
I think Aslak had something in mind that was lighter-weight than
Rails, built into Cucumber, though last time I looked at the 0.2 code
it didn’t really lend itself to building other UIs than the console
one - the logic for executing the test run is currently quite coupled
up with the console UI stuff I think.
The really nice thing (IMO) would be to avoid having to re-load a
rails env for the SUT every time, so you’d start to get the same
responsive feel as you get when you just code & fix in the browser in
development mode.
Anyway I’ve been thinking about this quite a bit and I’m definitely
interested in the concept. I’ve also pondered on the idea of a
‘unified’ test run API for RSpec and Cucumber so you could use the
same HTML UI / HTTP API to run both sets of tests. In my mind it would
look a bit like the good old JUnit test runner, but obviously sexier.
this was my vision with rcumber - I haven’t worked on it for a few
months, but it’s basically a rails plugin that provides a web interface
to edit and run cucumber tests… I’d love some help and ideas from
others to take this to a more universally usable tool - we use it right
now on 1 project. rcumber is at http://github.com/jgoodsen/rcumber/tree/master
I didn’t see a “plugin” here. Just a lite wiki, without even security or
other
heavy wiki features, that you prop up next to your projects. Put another
way, if
I were installing this, I didn’t want to have to plug it into an
existing project…
