Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “Gherkin files have the .feature extension and always start with a Feature: line followed by a description.”

A block of code is set as follows:

Package blog.softwaretester.gherkin;
import io.cucumber.java.en.Given;
import io.cucumber.java.en.Then;
import io.cucumber.java.en.When;

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

public class StepDefinitions {    @Given("I am on the Web shop homepage")
    public void goToHomepage() {        System.out.println("Go to homepage");    }

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

java -cp C:\Users\bbischoff\Desktop\karate-1.2.1.RC1\karate.jar com.intuit.karate.Main

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “To trigger one of the saved requests, click Send.”
