Linter for Gherkin feature files, written in Python

Simply run pip install gherlint.

Linting Feature Files

gherlint comes with a command line interface. To recursively lint all feature files in a directory, run gherlint lint.

Computing Metrics

gherlint can also create some metrics for you if you want to know how many features, scenarios and steps you have in your test suite. To do so, run gherlint stats.

Disclaimer

gherlint is still in an early development phase. New checks will be added over time. If you want to contribute, feel free to open issues suggesting useful checkers, or open a pull request if you want to!
