rspec users - Feb 2009 - [Cucumber] Enforce a skip on a non-implemented step

Hi,

When we create step defintions. For example:

When /^that data is loaded$/ do
	
end

The above is seen in the Cucucmber run as implemented.

Is it possible to put something within this method to enforce a skip flag?

I''m not sure I understand what you mean. You want to skip running
certain step definitions if a certain condition is true?

When /^that data is loaded$/ do
  unless ENV[''MAGIC'']
    # load the data
  end
end

$ MAGIC=true cucumber ...

Do you mean something like the ''pending'' function but it
instead marks
the step as skipped?

When /^that data is loaded$/ do
  skip	
end

Are you familiar with the "pending" method?

i.e.

When /^that data is loaded$/
  pending
end

I was not familiar, but it is exactly what I needed.
