keywords-in-logical-order

Keeps Given, When and Then in that order.

What it does#

A scenario reads as a small story: first the situation (Given), then the action (When), then the result (Then). Going backwards usually means two scenarios have been squashed into one.

Add this to your .gurkencheckrc:

{
  "keywords-in-logical-order": "on"
}

Settings#

This rule has no settings. Switch it on with "keywords-in-logical-order": "on".
