# trying out the scenario outlines cucumber feature
 
$ gem list cucumber; gem list webrat
*** LOCAL GEMS ***
cucumber (0.1.16)
webrat (0.4.1)
 
# the feature we are trying features/manage_cukes.feature
Feature: Manage cukes
  In order to use scenario outlines
  everything should work
 
  Scenario Outline: Testing scenario outlines
    Given there are <cuke_versions>
    Examples:
      |cuke_versions |
      |cuke_version 1|
      |cuke_version 2|
      |cuke_version 3|
      |cuke_version 4|
 
# and step features/step_definitions/cuke_steps.rb
Given /^there are <cuke_versions>$/ do
  cuke_version.should_not be_nil
end
 
Q 1. Is the wiki http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/scenario-outlines not accurate?
 
$ cucumber features/manage_cukes.feature 
  Scenario Outline: Testing scenario outlines  # features/manage_cukes.feature:5
    Given there are <cuke_versions>            # features/manage_cukes.feature:6
    |cuke_versions |
    |cuke_version 1|
    |cuke_version 2|
    |cuke_version 3|
    |cuke_version 4|
 
5 scenarios
4 steps pending (4 with no step definition)
 
A 1: lets solve it changing Example by More Examples in feature
 
Q 2. Are we receiving the data in step?
 
$ cucumber features/manage_cukes.feature
 
Feature: Manage cukes  # features/manage_cukes.feature
  In order to use scenario outlines
  everything should work
  Scenario Outline: Testing scenario outlines  # features/manage_cukes.feature:5
    Given there are <cuke_versions>            # features/manage_cukes.feature:6
 
    |cuke_versions |

A 2? lets upgrade cucumber (webrat is at its lattest version)
 
$ gem list cucumber 
cucumber (0.1.99.21)

:-( so, it is now webrat the one that fails. What do you think?
