Hey Aslak,
Doesn't this sound a bit like your Kipling project, which we spoke
about at QCon London, back in March? ;)
(http://gitorious.org/projects/kipling)
A little bit, but the idea with Kipling was to make something similar
to ThoughtWorks Mingle or Pivotal Tracker, which are tools to manage
stories, iterations, estimates, burndown etc.
My goal with a fat Cucumber client is different (although it clearly
intersects):
* Browse features
* Edit features
* Run features
I think that some kind of autocomplete / syntax highlighting that
understands the currently-implemented set of step matchers would be
really useful too - I already find myself wondering whether I've
already implemented a step as I write the scenario.
So I'm thinking more along the lines of Fitnesse, but with a more
business-friendly UI, and focus on Cucumber (of course).
Essentially - I want this to be primarily a tool that replaces
TextMate and the CLI for editing and running features, and not so
much a Scrum/XP planning tool. And the target audience is not us
programmers (most of us are happy in TM/CLI) - it's the non-techies
that know Word and Excel only (and are experts in their business'
domain).
It would be good if it could integrate into a a planning tool though -
offer an API that returned the number of Running Tested Features, etc.
I think it would be a great app to have, which would work well inside
a web browser, rather than a fat client that customers and managers
have to download...?
Running like a web based application through something like like Adobe
Air or Mozilla Prisim would be nice. (Though these are reliant on
downloading plugins).
