Class NarrativeReader

java.lang.Object

net.thucydides.core.requirements.model.NarrativeReader

public class NarrativeReader
extends Object

Load a narrative text from a directory. A narrative is a text file that describes a requirement, feature, or epic, or whatever terms you are using in your project. The directory structure itself is used to organize capabilities into features, and so on. At the leaf level, the directory will contain story files (e.g. JBehave stories, JUnit test cases, etc). At each level, a "narrative.txt" file provides a description.
