NAME

       Test::BDD::Cucumber::Extension - Abstract superclass for extensions

VERSION

       version 0.45

DESCRIPTION

       Provides an abstract superclass for extensions.  Loaded extensions will have their hook-
       implementations triggered at specific points during the BDD script execution.

PROPERTIES

   config
       A hash, the configuration read from the config file, verbatim.  Extensions should look for
       their own configuration in
         $self->config->{extensions}->{<extension>}

METHODS

   steps_directories()
       The returns an arrayref whose values enumerate directories (relative to the directory of
       the extension) which hold step files to be loaded when the extension is loaded.

   pre_feature($feature, $feature_stash)
       Invoked by the Executor before executing the background and feature scenarios and their
       respective pre-hooks. Reports errors by calling croak().

   post_feature($feature, $feature_stash)
       Invoked by the Executor after executing the background and feature scenarios and their
       respective post-hooks. Reports errors by calling croak().

   pre_scenario($scenario, $feature_stash, $scenario_stash)
       Invoked by the Executor before executing the steps in $scenario and their respective pre-
       hooks. Reports errors by calling croak().

   post_scenario($scenario, $feature_stash, $scenario_stash, $failed)
       Invoked by the Executor after executing all the steps in $scenario and their respective
       post-hooks. Reports errors by calling croak().

       $failure indicates whether any of the steps in the scenario has failed.

   pre_step($step, $step_context)
       Invoked by the Executor before executing each step in $scenario.  Reports errors by
       calling croak().

       Feature and scenario stashes can be reached through
        $step_context->{stash}->{feature} and
        $step_context->{stash}->{scenario}

       Note: *executed* steps, so not called for skipped steps.

   post_scenario($step, $step_context, $failed)
       Invoked by the Executor after each executed step in $scenario.  Reports errors by calling
       croak().

       $failure indicates whether the step has failed.

       Note: *executed* steps, so not called for skipped steps.
