How to skip Cucumber steps?

问题

I have the scenario like:

Given I go to this page
When I type cucumber
And I click
Then I should see the text
And I should not see the line

If I run this scenario it will execute all the 5 steps. But I want to skip the 4th step (Then I should see the text) and execute the 5th step.

Please give me your suggestions. Thanks in advance. :)

TL;DR - don't do it - you're (probably) getting it wrong. And you can't (easily) do it. As Aslak wrote (one of Cucumber main creators):

A step can have the following results:

undefined (no matching stepdef)

pending (a matching stepdef that throws PendingException)

passed (a matching stepdef that doesn't throw anything)

failed (a matching stepdef that throws an exception that isn't PendingException)

skipped (a step following a step that threw any exception (undefined, pending or failed))

What you're asking for is a new kind of result - ignored. It could be implemented by throwing an IgnoredException. This would mean that skipped would have to be changed to: (a step following a step that threw any exception (undefined, pending or failed) - unless the exception was IgnoredException)

I'm not sure I like this. It sounds like more complicated than it needs to be. You already have the necessary information that something is amiss - your step will either fail or be pending. I don't see the value in continuing to execute the following steps. You still have to implement the failing/pending step.

As long as you're reminded that "there is work to be done here" I don't think it's wortwhile complicating Cucumber to tell you what kind of work needs to be done...

I have had to skip steps conditionally based on environments. I used next to skip steps. Here is an example on how to do what you wanted.

Then /^I should see the text/$ do
    next if @environment == 'no text'

    ...
       <The actual step definition>
    ...
end
