Gherkin is a domain-specific language used in behavior-driven development (BDD) to describe software behaviors in a human-readable format. It allows stakeholders to write test cases in plain language, bridging the gap between technical and non-technical team members.

Features

  • Uses a simple syntax with keywords like Given, When, Then
  • Supports multiple languages for internationalization
  • Parses .feature files into abstract syntax trees (ASTs)
  • Integrates with various programming languages and testing frameworks
  • Facilitates collaboration between developers, testers, and business analysts
  • Enables automated testing through tools like Cucumber
