We're building up a specification in Gherkin, and we'd like to present the feature files to the business stakeholders. How can we export all our feature files in some sort of 'pretty' format?

For example:

  • Generate a document containing all features
  • OR integrate features into other documentation
  • OR publish the feature files on a web portal (nicely formatted)
