NAME

       Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile - Functions for creating and loading Step Definitions

VERSION

       version 0.11

DESCRIPTION

       Provides the Given/When/Then functions, and a method for loading Step Definition files and returning the steps.

SYNOPSIS

       Defining steps:

	#!perl

	use strict; use warnings; use Test::More;

	use Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile;
	use Method::Signatures; # Allows short-hand func method

	Given 'something',	    func ($c) { print "YEAH!" }
	When  qr/smooooth (d+)/,   func ($c) { print "YEEEHAH $1" }
	Then  qr/something (else)/, func ($c) { print "Meh $1" }
	Step  qr/die now/,	    func ($c) { die "now" }

       Loading steps, in a different file:

	use Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile;
	my @steps = Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile->load('filename_steps.pl');

EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

   Given
   When
   Then
   Step
       Accept a regular expression or string, and a coderef. Some cute tricks ensure that when you call the "load()" method on a file with these
       statements in, these are returned to it...

   load
       Loads a file containing step definitions, and returns a list of the steps defined in it, of the form:

	(
	 [ 'Given', qr/abc/, sub { etc } ],
	 [ 'Step',  'asdf',  sub { etc } ]
	)

NAME

       Test::BDD::Cucumber::Executor - Run through Feature and Harness objects

VERSION

       version 0.11

DESCRIPTION

       The Executor runs through Features, matching up the Step Lines with Step Definitions, and reporting on progress through the passed-in
       harness.

METHODS

   steps
   add_steps
       The attributes "steps" is a hashref of arrayrefs, storing steps by their Verb.  "add_steps()" takes step definitions of the item list form:

	(
	 [ Given => qr//, sub {} ],
	),

       and populates "steps" with them.

   execute
       Execute accepts a feature object, a harness object, and an optional Test::BDD::Cucumber::TagSpec object and for each scenario in the
       feature which meets the tag requirements (or all of them, if you haven't specified one), runs "execute_scenario".

   execute_scenario
       Accepts a hashref of options, and executes each step in a scenario. Options:

       "feature" - A Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Feature object

       "feature_stash" - A hashref that should live the lifetime of feature execution

       "harness" - A Test::BDD::Cucumber::Harness subclass object

       "scenario" - A Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Scenario object

       "background_obj" - An optional Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Scenario object representing the Background

       "scenario_stash" - We'll create a new scenario stash unless you've posted one in. This is used exclusively for giving Background sections
       access to the same stash as the scenario they're running before.

       For each step, a Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepContext object is created, and passed to "dispatch()". Nothing is returned - everything is played
       back through the Harness interface.

   add_placeholders
       Accepts a text string and a hashref, and replaces " <placeholders" > with the values in the hashref, returning a string.

   dispatch
       Accepts a Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepContext object, and searches through the steps that have been added to the executor object, executing
       against the first matching one.

       You can also pass in a boolean 'short-circuit' flag if the Scenario's remaining steps should be skipped.

   skip_step
       Accepts a step-context, a result-type, and a textual reason, exercises the Harness's step start and step_done methods, and returns a
       skipped-test result.
