@windyroad/cucumber-js-throwables v1.0.4

cucumber-js-throwables

Provides Error classes for cucumber-js that can be used to generate pending and skipped results

Why

I used to heavily use PendingException when writing Java code as it allowed me to focus on the task at hand. For everything else, (methods not implemented or branches not implemented) I'd just throw a PendingException.

This isn't as doable in cucumber-js, because in the step definition, you either need to return 'pending' (for no callback) or call

I really miss PendingException from cucumber-jvm

Usage

Add Wrapper

In your world.js (or similar) add

import { stepDefinitionWrapper } from '@windyroad/cucumber-js-throwables'
import { setDefinitionFunctionWrapper } from 'cucumber'

setDefinitionFunctionWrapper(stepDefinitionWrapper)

Use Errors

import { PendingError, SkippedError } from '@windyroad/cucumber-js-throwables'

You can now call

throw new PendingError();

and

throw new SkippedError();

in you code instead of having to return 'pending' or 'skipped', or call callback(null, 'pending') or callback(null, 'skipped')

Snippets

Add

--format-options '{\"snippetInterface\": \"async-await\", \"snippetSyntax\": \"./node_modules/@windyroad/cucumber-js-throwables/lib/custom-cucumber-syntax.js\"}'

in your cucumber-js command
