Test::...::Step(3pm)

💖 Test::...::Step — the manual page, but make it a group chat 💖

okay so bestie, you're looking at Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Step, which is a Perl module from the User Contributed Perl Documentation pile. it's the lil guy that models one single step inside a scenario. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Step — a model that represents a step in a scenario. literally its whole job. iconic behaviour, honestly. 💅

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 0.87 — yes, she's on 0.87, write it down, bestie 🦋

---

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

Model to represent a step in a scenario. that's it, that's the description. she's a model, she models a step, she slays, periodt. ✨

👑 ATTRIBUTES 👑

these are her fields. her little pockets of data. let's go through them one by one, no skipping, we do NOT skip in this house 🧚

• text — the text of the step, once Scenario Outlines have been applied. so like, the final glow-up version of the sentence, not the template one 🌈
• verb — the verb used for the step ('Given' / 'When' / etc.). this is the main character word at the front, okay? 💅
• verb_original — also the verb used for the step, BUT this one is the one that actually appeared in the physical file. and heads up: this will sometimes be "and". yes. "and". because the file said and and verb_original is a truth-teller who doesn't lie about what was written down 🙈
• line — the corresponding <Test:BDD::Cucumber::Model::Line>. the lil line object she's attached to, iykyk 💜
• data — step-related data. either a string, in the case of """, or an arrayref of hashrefs for a data table. so she can hold a plain blob of text OR a whole table situation, she's flexible like that 🍓
• data_as_strings — an arrayref of strings containing the original step's data, for printing out by harnesses. this one exists so the harnesses can print stuff nicely, it's giving helpful 🎀
• columns — if the data was in a table format, then the column names will be here, in the order they appeared. order preserved, bestie, we respect the original layout 👑
