contract-generation

To generate API contracts from Gherkin scenarios, you need a tool that parses behavior-driven test files and extracts endpoint definitions. This process translates Given-When-Then steps into an OpenAPI-inspired YAML format, producing a structured API specification for development.

Yes, you can generate shared TypeScript types and Azure infrastructure definitions directly from Gherkin test files. This automation synchronizes frontend and backend type definitions while configuring necessary Azure infrastructure resources.

The best way to synchronize frontend and backend TypeScript types is by deriving them from a shared API contract. Using Gherkin scenarios as the source, you can automatically generate consistent TypeScript type definitions across your entire stack.

Yes, you need working knowledge of both Gherkin syntax and the OpenAPI-inspired YAML format. This prerequisite knowledge is required to properly structure behavior scenarios and define the resulting infrastructure resource configurations.

Generating Azure infrastructure definitions from Gherkin scenarios works by parsing behavior scenarios to identify required resources, then translating those requirements into infrastructure configuration files. This enables parallel development of features and their deployment environments.

A key limitation is that API contract generation from behavior-driven test scenarios requires strict adherence to Gherkin syntax and an OpenAPI-inspired YAML format. If test files lack clear endpoint definitions, the generated infrastructure and type definitions may be incomplete.
