Question

I have this step implementation

Given /^entity URI “([^”]*)”$/ do |arg1|
@entityUri = arg1
end

I copied this step from an existing feature file to a new feature file

   Given entity URI <Entity Resource URI>

Cucumber states
1 scenario (1 undefined)
8 steps (2 skipped, 4 undefined, 2 passed)
0m0.009s

You can implement step definitions for undefined steps with these snippets:

Given /^entity URI “(.*?)”$/ do |arg1|
pending # express the regexp above with the code you wish you had
end

P.S: I checked the directory structure of my old and new feature files and they are at the same level. Even this solution did not work for me: Cucumber: undefined step, although step should be defined

Answer 1

Based on the step matcher regex, I’d expect the step to match with double-quotes around the step:

Given entity URI "<Entity Resource URI>"
