📄️ Typed Data Tables
The default LISTOFOBJECT_PARAMS data-table mode — Gherkin data tables generate type-safe inner classes with typed accessors. No Cucumber dependency.
📄️ DocStrings
Gherkin doc strings (triple-quoted blocks) become a trailing String parameter on the step method, with formatting preserved via Java text blocks.
📄️ Sharing Steps via a Base Class
Place common step implementations in a base class that multiple markers extend. The generator detects step methods already present anywhere in a marker's class hierarchy and reuses them — it emits no abstract declaration (or stub) for a step a base class already implements.
📄️ Type Refinement with Enums
Refine generated String types to enums — in data-table Param classes and in quoted step parameters alike — to turn data drift into a compile error.
📄️ TDD Workflow
Iterative red-green development backed by failing tests generated from incomplete feature files.
📄️ Glob Patterns
A glob pattern in @Gherkin2JUnit lets a single marker class drive many spec files — one generated test class per spec, all extending the same marker, even across sub-packages.
📄️ Config Inheritance
Share generation options across many marker classes via @Gherkin2JUnitOptions on a base class. Override specific options per marker as needed.
📄️ Scenario Outline Parameters
Examples table values don't only fill quoted parameters. They reach every kind of step
