fix: allow gherkin keywords as supported by cucumber

[ebo-zig]

Motivation/Description of the PR

• Description of this PR, which problem it solves
• Resolves #issueId (if applicable).

Because managing translations of Gherkin keywords happens in this repo, the features cannot be run in every language. When setting the language of the feature to Dutch (nl), CodeceptJS threats it as English.

Therefore, the translations of keywords should be loaded from Cucumber: https://github.com/cucumber/gherkin/blob/main/javascript/src/gherkin-languages.json

Type of change

hi @ebo-zig actually, we are not only translating gherkin keywords, but also the codeceptjs actions are translated as well, so that's why there is now separated file for each language, for instance https://github.com/codeceptjs/CodeceptJS/blob/3.x/translations/de-DE.js

@ebo-zig may you help review this translation?

[ebo-zig]

Done! Came to the conclusion that the Dutch language is a little bit strange after reviewing this 😄

[kobenguyent]

Haha, yeah, I could imagine that as I asked help from chatgpt to translate them. Thanks for the review!

Hi @kobenguyent, I agree with the fact that not only Gherkin keywords should be translated.

But re-defining the Gherkin translations feels a little bit duplicate to me. So, if that is what we want, then that is allright.

May you happen to have any better approaches for this?

[ebo-zig]

I think there are two possible solutions:

1. Fully support all languages, which means that you proposal is the way to go.
2. Use the keywords of Gherkin as managed by Cucumber, as I am proposing.

The con of 1 is that using BDD tests in CodeceptJS doesn't work out of the box. And we are defining what already is defined by Cucumber.
The con of 2 is that you can use a language in BDD but using the same language in acceptance tests isn't always possible.

So there is no better approach IMO, other than chosing between the possible solutions.

@kobenguyent is there any chance this change will be available soon in a new tag?

@ebo-zig I could not say for certain when there would be a release, but of course, you could try [email protected] with latest changes.
