cucumber-wire

This gem was extracted from the cucumber gem, and remains a runtime dependency to that gem.

Its tests are a bit hairy and prone to the occasional flicker.

In the future, it may become an opt-in plugin rather than a direct dependency on every Cucumber.

Configuration

You can configure the connection using a YAML file called a .wire file:

host: localhost
port: 54321
timeout:
  connect: 11
  invoke: 120
  begin_scenario: 120
  end_scenario: 120

Timeouts

The default timeout is 120 seconds. connect has a default timeout of 11 seconds.

YAML with ERB templating

The file format is YAML, with ERB templating, so you could make the configuration configurable:

host: localhost
port: 54321
timeout:
  connect: <%= (ENV['MY_CONNECT_TIMEOUT'] || 11).to_i %>
  invoke: 120
  begin_scenario: 120
  end_scenario: 120
