Class ExpressionFactory

io.cucumber.cucumberexpressions.ExpressionFactory

@API(status=STABLE)
public final class ExpressionFactory
extends Object

Creates a CucumberExpression or RegularExpression from a String using heuristics. This is particularly useful for languages that don't have a literal syntax for regular expressions. In Java, a regular expression has to be represented as a String. A string that starts with `^` and/or ends with `$` is considered a regular expression. Everything else is considered a Cucumber expression.
