Is there a Visual Studio Code extension that will write cucumber step definitions?

Question

For example, with IntelliJ if I type

When I login as "fred" with password "barney"

into a feature, then press alt-enter on the undefined step, IntelliJ will auto-generate

When(/^I login as "([^"]*)" with password "([^"]*)"$/) do |arg1, arg2|
  pending
end

in one of my step definition files.

Can Visual Studio Code do this also? (I do have Cucumber Full Support installed; but, it seems to only autocomplete existing steps.)

So far as I see Cucumebr VS Code extension does not provides auto-generation/update of test steps as IntelliJ or SpecFlow.

Yes, use the SpecFlow plugin from SpecFlow and it will automatically generate all your cucumber feature steps.

It's a **visual studio** extension, not a **visual studio code** extension. – Munim Munna Oct 01 '20 at 17:26

There is Cucumber (Gherkin) Full Support plugin. It has auto-completion of steps, as well as many other features.

Does it have auto-generation of step files as OP is asking for? – Munim Munna Oct 01 '20 at 16:34
OP is not asking for auto-generation of step files. – Mate Mrše Oct 01 '20 at 16:44
Can you please re-read the question and verify? sounds to me like he is asking for auto-generation of step definitions rather than auto-completion. – Munim Munna Oct 01 '20 at 16:51
"in one of my step definition files" - step definition files are there, step definition themselves are missing. – Mate Mrše Oct 01 '20 at 20:34
So does this extension generate step definitions? – Munim Munna Oct 03 '20 at 06:32
