I find it hard to connect certain given/then/when to the relevant steps in larger projects.
But maybe that's just me :) Any ideas around that would be appreciated.
I take it in steak you just call a general method.
Just do a find in project and bom :) there it is. It's harder with steps (longer sentences)
I guess it is doable though...
> Plain text have no value if people writing and reading the specs are developers.
I disagree. Language shapes thinking to a certain degree, and Cucumber can help put yourself in a useful mindset for describing specs.
I think he has a point with the last comment though, most (though not all) of the benefit comes upfront. Mind you, that's the best place to have a benefit :)
