Eyemask is a tool to help you make richer specifications for your stakeholders, including easy diagrams and other pictures. This will help you collaborate more effectively, and increase the value you get from Behaviour Driven Development practices.

The tool works using the output of the Cucumber JSON formatter and can function as a UNIX filter. This lets you do any preprocessing you want, and send the output into another tool. This can be used as part of a pipeline of tools to deliver up to date rich specifications. Adding this as a job on a CI system would let you combine the benefits of a traditional specification document, with those of living documentation.

• Special support for embedded diagrams using a simple text syntax if you install PlantUML.
