How to reuse Minitest support code in Cucumber step definitions?

Question

I have a test suite that uses Minitest. As per the Minitest docs, when I had common functionality, I extracted it into a module, then included that module into ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest , giving me access in my tests. In this case, the extracted functionality formatted the requests and parsed the responses in my integration tests.

Now, I'm bringing in Cucumber, but when I add include MyHelperModule in my steps definition file, it raises NameError: undefined constant .

How can I include this functionality in my Cucumber step definitions without rewriting the module underneath features/ ?

The module currently lives at test/support/my_helper_module.rb .

Answer 1

In features/support/env.rb , or in another .rb file in features/support , do

require_relative '../../test/support/my_helper_module'

MyHelperModule will then be available in step definitions.
