Cucumber::Rake::Task

Defines a Rake task for running features.

The simplest use of it goes something like:

Cucumber::Rake::Task.new

This will define a task named cucumber described as ‘Run Cucumber features’. It will use steps from ‘features/*/.rb’ and features in ‘features/*/.feature’.

To further configure the task, you can pass a block:

Cucumber::Rake::Task.new do |t|
  t.cucumber_opts = %w{--format progress}
end

This task can also be configured to be run with RCov:

Cucumber::Rake::Task.new do |t|
  t.rcov = true
end

See the attributes for additional configuration possibilities.

Attributes

binary[RW]

Name of the cucumber binary to use for running features. Defaults to Cucumber::BINARY

cucumber_opts[RW]

Extra options to pass to the cucumber binary. Can be overridden by the CUCUMBER_OPTS environment variable. It’s recommended to pass an Array, but if it’s a String it will be split by ‘ ’.

fork[RW]

Whether or not to fork a new ruby interpreter. Defaults to true. You may gain some startup speed if you set it to false, but this may also cause issues with your load path and gems.

libs[RW]

Directories to add to the Ruby $LOAD_PATH

profile[RW]

Define what profile to be used. When used with cucumber_opts it is simply appended to it. Will be ignored when CUCUMBER_OPTS is used.

rcov[RW]

Run cucumber with RCov? Defaults to false. If you set this to true, fork is implicit.

rcov_opts[RW]

Extra options to pass to rcov. It’s recommended to pass an Array, but if it’s a String it will be split by ‘ ’.
