Gherkin

Build Status

A Swift package for working with gherkin based .feature files.

Warning: This package only handles a limited subset of Gherkin. I'd like to improve this. If you would like to help, see the Gherkin Subset section.

Usage

You can initialize a Feature from a String or from some Data. These initializers will throw an Error if the parser cannot read the content.

import Gherkin

do {
  let text = """
             Feature: Registration
             Users may want to register to save lists

             Scenario: Successful registration
             Given I am on the registration screen
             When I enter <email> into the email field
             And submit the form
             Then I see the registration page

             Examples:
             | email                  |
             | [email protected]       |
             | [email protected] |
             """

  let feature = try Feature(text)
  print(feature.name) // Registration
  let firstScenario = feature.scenarios[0]
  print(firstScenario.steps.count) // 4

  print(firstScenario.examples) // ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"]
}

The Scenario type is an enum that has two cases .simple(ScenarioSimple) & .outline(ScenarioOutline). The parser ensures that a 'Scenario Outline:' must have at least one example.

Installation

Swift Package Manager

To install using Swift Package Manager, add this to the dependencies: section in your Package.swift file:

.package(url: "https://github.com/iainsmith/SwiftGherkin.git", .upToNextMinor(from: "0.2.0")),
Example Swift 4 Package
let package = Package(
    name: "MyPackage",
    products: [
        .library(
            name: "MyPackage",
            targets: ["MyPackage"]),
    ],
    dependencies: [
        .package(url: "https://github.com/iainsmith/SwiftGherkin.git", .upToNextMinor(from: "0.2.0")),
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(
            name: "MyPackage",
            dependencies: ["Gherkin"])
    ]
)

Gherkin Subset

This package currently has some support for the following Gherkin keywords:

  • Feature:
  • Scenario:
  • Scenario Outline:
    • Examples:
  • Steps

Obvious areas of improvement include:

  • Adding support for
    • Comments
    • Background steps
  • Converting a feature file back to the canonical gherkin text
  • General Gherkin parsing improvements
  • CocoaPods support

If you'd like to add any of these please:

  1. Add a test case to GherkinTests.swift
  2. Update Parser.swift & Transform.swift until all the tests pass
  3. Create a Pull Request

Gherkin is built on top of Consumer. You will probably want to read the Consumer documentation to work on the parse & transform.

If you'd like to add a different feature to this library, please raise an issue to discuss the details.

Acknowledgements

Gherkin is built on top of a parser generator called Consumer by Nick Lockwood.

Supported swift versions

SwiftGherkin currently supports swift 4.2 and higher.

Adding new tests

If you add new tests, run swift test --generate-linuxmain to make sure they are added to the XCTestManifests.swift file.

Versioning Notes

The Feature type conforms to Codable. It's likely that the JSON representation will not be compatible between versions.
