I had to develop an application as modules for the Typolight php cms recently, and I really missed rspec and cucumber. While I found a quite acceptable alternative for rspec in phpspec (with a few tweaks), there were nothing as cucumber.

Good news : it can simply works. Webrat can use Mechanize to make some http requests and parse the result. As is, cucumber can be totally used through webrat and don’t care anymore about what kind of application is used.

Here is the env.rb I used for Typolight (should work for anything) : http://gist.github.com/82813
