Would be great if this "transpiled" into a more robust and popularly supported formalism so that the functionality could be refined over time.
I could see implementing this script as being a requirement for a new feature delivered by engineering, and then having test engineering use that functionality as a foundation for more thorough qualification.
I worry that this approach by itself will fall into the same issues that Cucumber does, which is the amount of manual definition you would need to implement through what they're referring to as "macros". Over time those become as brittle as the code you intend to test.
