cucumber-for-jenkins/README.md

The unofficial JavaScript implementation of Cucumber.

This is a project based on Cucumber.js found at [https://www.npmjs.com/package/cucumber](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cucumber) and is only meant to be used alongside the project found there.

The purpose of this package is to save a JSON file of the cucumber report under the name output.json inside the Jenkins workspace to be used in generating cucumber reports.

I simply exchanged the process.stdout.write( data ) with a require('fs').writeFileSync('output.json', data, {encoding: 'utf-8'} ), all other functionality of cucumber is left alone and is taken from version 0.4.9

USAGE:

``` shell
$ npm install cucumber-for-jenkins
```

only use this inside of Jenkins, use cucumber-js for all local development, and only use the json format, as other formats will just be written to a file and not do you much good.

to run this in shell on Jenkins use the command

``` shell
node node_modules/.bin/cucumber-js -f json
```

All functionality is kept from cucumber-js so all the tags and scenario outlines and whatever other cool functionality you enjoy in version 0.4.9 is maintaned.
Once the feature test has completed, then check into your Jenkins workspace folder and you will find output.json in the root level.

Enjoy.
