Can I rename the step_definitions folder for Cucumber?

Question

Cucumber is great for behavior-driven development, but I would like to use shorter directory names. Features / step _definitions? Why are there no functions / steps? I assume there is some way to change this in the cucumber.yml file, but I could not find the .yml file that does.

Answer 1

You don’t have to do anything. Cucumber looks for definitions of steps in the subdirectories of "functions", so functions / steps work just like functions / step_definitions.
