Scenario: Set up Cucumber
    Given I have Ruby installed
     When I type "sudo gem install cucumber"
      And I type "sudo gem install rspec"
      And I type "cucumber --help" 
     Then I should see Cucumber help text


Scenario: Set up Capybara
    Given I have Ruby installed
      And I have Qt installed (http://bit.ly/HvCG2s)
     When I type "sudo gem install capybara"
      And I type "sudo gem install capybara-webkit"
     Then I should be good to go


Scenario: Set up a Cucumber folder structure
    Given I have Cucumber installed
      And I am in the directory in which I want to store my tests
     When I create a directory called "features"
      And I create a directory called "features/step_definitions"
      And I create a directory called "support"
     Then I should be ready to start building my test environment


Scenario: Create the Cucumber/Capybara test environment
    Given I have created the Cucumber folder structure
      And I have installed Cucumber
      And I have installed Capybara
     When I create a file called "env.rb" in "features/support"
      And I type "require 'capybara/webkit'" in env.rb
      And I type "require 'capybara/cucumber'" in env.rb
      And I create a file called "hooks.rb" in "features/support"
      And I type "Capybara.app_host = 'http://my_site_to_test.com'" in hooks.rb
      And I type "Capybara.default_driver = :webkit" in hooks.rb
      And I type "Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit" in hooks.rb
     Then I should be ready to start testing


Scenario: Creating Cucumber tests
    Given I have created the Cucumber folder structure
      And I have installed Cucumber
     When I create a file called "myfeature.feature" in "features"
      And I write Cucumber tests in "myfeature.feature"
      And I create a file called "mysteps_steps.rb" in "features/step_definitions"
      And I write Ruby code implementing the steps
     Then I should have Cucumber tests that can be executed
