As a professional Python coder I had to look up Cucumber and Gherkin. I wasn't sure whether it was sarcasm either. And then I learned that Lettuce actually exists as a free alternative to Cucumber.

Who named these things, Javascript devs? (I jest, but Python has pretty clear naming usually)

EDIT: For those of you downvoting - consider the impression this gives to someone who doesn't know what Cucumber is (particularly in a ranty blog): you tell them "Oh no sorry, I was expecting to see Cucumber, but they were using Lettuce which isn't Gherkin compatible". I think it's entirely reasonable to think that those aren't real packages...
