Does this support languages other than English?

Yes, it supports the full Gherkin specification, allowing you to configure languages like German, French, or Spanish via the language configuration option.

Why aren't my steps being recognized?

This is often due to glob pattern mismatches in the config or missing exports in step files; the skill provides troubleshooting steps to verify paths and registered steps.

What does the defineBddConfig() function do?

It maps your Gherkin feature files to their corresponding step definitions and specifies the directory where generated Playwright test files will be stored.

Can I use custom fixtures with this BDD setup?

Yes, the skill helps you configure the importTestFrom option to point to a custom test instance where your fixtures are defined and exported.

How do I run the BDD tests once configured?

You use 'npx bddgen' to generate the test files from your features and then 'npx playwright test' to execute them. These can be combined in your CI/CD pipeline.
