    A hope my ignorance is acceptable here. I have, to this point,
    programmed in Ruby mostly using my awareness of procedural

    for myself. I'm starting to use classes now - just starting.

    I have a small project I'm working on - setting up a database
    based on the directed acyclic graph (DAG) model (using Ruby only).
    I'm been studying test-directed development, which led me to BDD,
    at which point I got really excited. I truly want to go forward
    with learning cucumber, and rspec.

    So here I am trying to started using cucumber, and I'm having a little
    trouble. The documentation in the cucumber wiki isn't, to my poverty
    stricken perception, at all procedural, although individual pages seem
    quite lucid and accessible. After reading and rereading (I've
    looked at
    every page, and most several times), it appears that the "start"
    page is
    "Cucumber Backgrounder". The problem is that this assumes you are
    working with Rails, about which I know little and desire to know
    less. I get stuck, on that page, at the phrase...

    ==When you run "script/generate cucumber" ==

    Huh? Is this something you do in Rails?


Yes, this is Rails only.

I recommend you take a look at the examples/i18n folder. You'll find some really simplistic Cucumber code that is simple Ruby. No Rails or other complex material.

Thanks - yes that's the complete picture I needed. I'm launched. Fantastic!
