Integration of TestCafe and CucumberJS

Integration of TestCafe and CucumberJS

This is a demonstration of integration TestCafé into CucumberJS tests using TestCafe and Cucumber.

Big thank you to helen-dikareva for your help in starting the integration with your repo. This is a fork of all of the hard work you've put in.

Also, thanks to the team at TestCafé for allowing testers to break away from Selenium.

Depreciation Notice - There are talks to officially support the Gherkin syntax in TestCafé. Once those changes are in place I will no longer support this repo. Please voice your support of these changes becoming native to TestCafé.

Notes

• As of the time I am writting this, there is only 1 passing test of 3. I decided to not make all of the tests passing, so you could see how failures are handled.

• My solution closes the TestCafé browser between each scenario. I tried to keep it open between scenarios but had trouble with handling failures. If you find a solution, I'd like to know.

• With TestCafé version 0.19.0, you no longer have to manually update stack-chain. Thank you to the TestCafé crew for making the integration much easier.
