Home Directory

As a developer
I want to configure the home directory
In order to have a better isolation of tests

Be careful to set the HOME-variable aka config.home_directory to something
else than <project_root>/tmp/aruba. This is a dance with the devil and
violates the isolation of your test suite. Thus will be not supported from
aruba as of 1.0.0.

Background

Given: I use the fixture "cli-app"

Scenarios

Default value
Set to current working directory
Set to aruba's working directory
Set to some other path (deprecated)

Default value

Given

a file named "features/support/aruba.rb" with:

Aruba.configure do |config|
  puts %(The default value is "#{config.home_directory}")
end

When

I successfully run cucumber

Then

the output should contain:

The default value is "/home/

Set to current working directory

Given

a file named "features/support/aruba.rb" with:

Aruba.configure do |config|
  # use current working directory
  config.home_directory = '.'
end

Aruba.configure do |config|
  puts %(The default value is "#{config.home_directory}")
end

Then

I successfully run cucumber

Then

the output should contain:

The default value is "."

Set to aruba's working directory

Given

a file named "features/support/aruba.rb" with:

Aruba.configure do |config|
  # Use aruba working directory
  config.home_directory = File.join(config.root_directory, config.working_directory)
end

Aruba.configure do |config|
  puts %(The default value is "#{config.home_directory}")
end

Then

I successfully run cucumber

Then

the output should contain:

The default value is "/home/

Set to some other path (deprecated)

Given

a file named "features/support/aruba.rb" with:

Aruba.configure do |config|
  # use current working directory
  config.home_directory = '/tmp/home'
end

Aruba.configure do |config|
  puts %(The default value is "#{config.home_directory}")
end

Then

I successfully run cucumber

Then

the output should contain:

The default value is "/tmp/home"
