Drive javascript chapter

Quick Questions:

• After creating my ControlPanel.coffee file . in order to run cucumber do I need to compile all the .coffee files to js?

• This example is really simple which is fine. But I was hoping for something more substantial such as working with zombie or phantomjs or casperjs

• Can cucumberjs be used to drive something like sahi or webdriverjs ?

Hi, gb.

Once you’ve got ControlPanel.coffee in place, cucumber-js will run it for you—you don’t need to compile explicitly.

cucumber-js can indeed drive headless browsers; the NodeBDD example uses zombie. I’d imagine it could also drive webdriverjs, though that use would likely be very similar to regular Cucumber + Selenium WebDriver.
