Document & Table Formatting¶
Format Document¶
Formatting the whole document (Shift+Alt+F, or your IDE’s equivalent
shortcut) re-indents the entire .feature file, providing consistent indentation per
nesting level, normalized spacing around keywords, and blank lines between
scenarios. Formatting rules are read from .editorconfig — see
Gherkin Formatting with EditorConfig for the full
settings reference.
Table formatting¶
Typing | or pressing Enter inside a Gherkin data table or Examples:
table pads the columns so the pipes stay aligned as you type. A table can
also be re-aligned by running Format Document. A row missing its trailing
| gets one appended automatically.
