Sample Cucumber Test

[arihan]

Hi All,

I am completely new to the cucumber though I've good knowledge about
RUBY+watir which I've used for agile testing since long time.

I just want to make a sample cucumber test and run it.

Scenario say :- go to www.google.com
search with the term "Lancet"
click the search button
check lancet present

I've installed ruby version as ruby 1.8.7 (2010-06-23 patchlevel 299)
[i386-mingw32]
then installed gem install cucumber,
then installed gem install watir

I am using "Start command prompt with Ruby "

now i created three following things
C:\test\features\sample.feature
C:\test\features\step_definitions\sample.rb
C:\test\features\support\env.rb


contents of sample.feature

Feature: Search
In order to learn more
As an information seeker
I want to find more information

Scenario: Find what I'm looking for
Given I am on the Google search page
When I search for "Lancet"
Then I should see
"""
Lancet
"""
contents of sample.rb

require 'test/unit'
require 'test/unit/ui/console/testrunner'
require 'win32ole'

Given 'I am on the Google search page' do
@browser.goto 'http://www.google.com/'
end

When /I search for "(.*)"/ do |query|
@browser.text_field(:name, 'q').set(query)
@browser.button(:name, 'btnG').click
end

Then /I should see/ do |text|
@browser.text.should =~ /#{text}/m
end

contents of env.rb

begin require 'rspec/expectations'; rescue LoadError; require 'spec/
expectations'; end

if ENV['FIREWATIR']
require 'firewatir'
Browser = FireWatir::Firefox
else
case RUBY_PLATFORM
when /darwin/
require 'safariwatir'
Browser = Watir::Safari
when /win32|mingw/
require 'watir'
Browser = Watir::IE
when /java/
require 'celerity'
Browser = Celerity::Browser
else
raise "This platform is not supported (#{PLATFORM})"
end
end

# "before all"
browser = Browser.new

Before do
@browser = browser
end

# "after all"
at_exit do
browser.close
end


Please let me know if any wrong anywhere.

now i run from ruby command prompt
and getting following errors

Thanks . I did that and it started working fine as I ran like as below
and got the result.

Now I want to create multiple features files and corresponding
multiple step definition files
as example

sample1.feature
sample2.feature

and in the step_defination folder I would create the sample1.rb &
sample2.rb

now how i would run it as test suite. Any step by step guide would be
highly appreciated

Regards
Arihan

Hi Aridah,

If you would like to have the basic watir support for actions with
cucumber I would recommend to try watircuke.
There are a lot of defined steps already which helps to write a tests
really fast.

You can find in on the github http://github.com/richdownie/watircuke.

Don't get hung up on a 1:1 relationship between features and step
files, it's not needed. I find it a lot simpler to maintain a smaller
number of step files that are grouped kinda functionally, such as
'navigation' or for a related group of features.

learn about should 'matchers' it can help to create more readable
code. for example unless I'm mis-remembering there's a 'contain'
matcher, so your Then step could be done as

Then /I should see/ do |text|

@browser.text.should contain text
end
