cypress-cucumber-preprocessor 4.1.0 - TSX and Multiline Step Arguments support
We've just released a new version of the cypress-cucumber-preprocessor package.
Multiline Step Arguments:
Thanks to @Enrico126 it allows usage of multiline step arguments, as showcased with a simple .feature example:
Scenario Outline: DocString
When I use DocString with argument like this:
"""
Hey,
You have been granted <Role> rights.
-The Admins
"""
Then I should have a string with argument "<Role>"
Examples:
| Role |
| Manager |
| Admin |
and matching step definition:
let argString = "";
When("I use DocString with argument like this:", (dataString) => {
argString = dataString;
});
Then(/^I should have a string with argument "([^"]*)"$/, function (argument) {
expect(argString).to.contain(argument);
});
TSX support:
Thanks to @mallison you should be able to use .tsx files as your step definitions. As noted by @azamuddin this change also allows the use of @cypress/react to test react components in isolation with cucumber.

Add types to your AWS lambda handler

How to expose a local service to the internet
From time to time you might need to expose your locally running service to the external world - for example you might want to test a webhook that calls your service. To speed up the test/development feedback loop it would be great to be able to point that webhook to your local machine.
For loops in JavaScript (vs _.times)
From time to time I still see a for loop in JavaScript codebases. Linters are frequently angry about them. Let's see how we can replace them.
