Generic steps

Since 6.4.0, vitest-cucumber supports generic step definitions with Step(...).

A generic step matches any keyword (Given, When, Then, And, But) when the step text or expression is the same.

Example

Feature: Generic step example
    Scenario: Same step with different keywords
        Given I have a generic step
        And I have a generic step
        But I have a generic step
        Then I can use it

import { loadFeature, describeFeature } from "@amiceli/vitest-cucumber"

const feature = await loadFeature("src/features/generic-step.feature")

describeFeature(feature, (f) => {
    f.defineSteps(({ Step, Then }) => {
        Step("I have a generic step", (ctx) => {
            ctx.calls = (ctx.calls || 0) + 1
        })

        Then("I can use it", (ctx) => {
            expect(ctx.calls).toBe(3)
        })
    })

    f.Scenario("Same step with different keywords", () => {})
})

Expressions

Generic steps also support expressions:

f.defineSteps(({ Step }) => {
    Step("I have {int} apples", (ctx, count: number) => {
        expect(count).toBeGreaterThan(0)
    })
})

It matches any keyword when the text matches the same pattern.
