R – How to access the scenario and example names in Cucumber

cucumber

I'm using cucumber to generate test scripts that can be executed by a tool or human… so not the standard use.

However I would like to pass through the scenario and example names through to my output.

Is this possible?

Best Solution

Found it.. (with some help from Tim Walker)

Before do |scenario|
 puts "Before Scenario: #{scenario.to_sexp[2]}"
 .
 .
 .
end

Your SExpression may differ, so it's worth doing a scenario.to_sexp.inspect to see what that tree is.

Aslak is keen to avoid exposing properties on his classes (which is a decision I happen to agree with, so I'm happy to do this work around).
