Automated Testing Without Coding

Functionally test your web application through simple, readable Gherkin scripts. No programming required!

Getting Started

Installing kosher

Download the installer from the latest published release of kosher: https://github.com/cbush06/kosher/releases/latest
Run the installer with administrative privileges. You can do one of the following:
- Simply double-click the kosher.jar file (this may work for some)
- If double-clicking fails on a linux system, open a terminal and run sudo java -jar kosher.jar
- If double-clicking fails on a Windows system, skip to the next section Install using Windows Command

Install using Windows Command Line

Navigate to the Windows Command Line shortcut, right-click, and Open as Administrator
When the terminal opens Chage Directory (cd) into the following file path: (C:\Users\user\Downloads)

a.

b.
Execute the following command to begin the install: (java -jar “kosher(version#).jar)
The kosher installation wizard should appear. Follow its prompts to complete installation.

The installer will suggest several tools to aid in writing Gherkin scripts and running kosher tests. At a minimum, we recommend Chrome, Git (and Git Bash, if you’re using Windows), and Visual Studio Code.
The installer should automatically add kosher to the PATH. To verify the installation, open a new terminal and key in the command below. Your output should look similar.
$ kosher version
1.0.0

Trying it Out

Create a new directory to house your first kosher project. Using a bash terminal, enter:
```
$ mkdir kosher-project
$ cd kosher-project
```
Initialize the project (create its basic structure, configuration files, and an example test script):
```
$ kosher init KosherProject
Project [KosherProject] initialized...
```
Assuming you have Chrome installed, run the example test with the following command:
```
$ kosher run features/
```
