Release Policy

We use Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. We depend on rubygems to ensure correct dependency versions, so dropping support for older dependencies and Ruby versions will not result in a major version bump.

Supported Ruby versions

Aruba is supported on Ruby 2.6 and up, and tested against CRuby 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2, and JRuby 9.3 and 9.4.

Supported Cucumber versions

Aruba is supported on and tested with Cucumber versions 4 through 8.

Supported operating systems

Aruba is fully tested in CI on Linux and MacOS. On Windows, only RSpec tests are run, so YMMV. Full Windows support is a work in progress.

Contributing

Please see the CONTRIBUTING file.
