Playwright + Currents + playwright-bdd (Cucumber)

This repository showcases running Playwright + Currents + playwright-bdd to run BDD tests, while using Currents as the reporting dashboard.

Why?

cucumber-js is a mature and popular test runner, however, it is different from the native Playwright test runner - those are not compatible. To utilize the native Playwright test runner with BDD it is suggested to use playwright-bdd.
