Request to Upgrade Dependent Gems

[chiraggarg2906]

🤔 What's the problem you're trying to solve?

I’m currently working on upgrading the following cucumber-related gems in my project but am running into issues due to dependency constraints or compatibility problems. Here are the gems and the versions I’m trying to upgrade:

Gem | Current Version | Latest Version

cucumber-core | 13.0.3 | 15.1.0

cucumber-cucumber-expressions | 17.1.0 | 18.0.1

cucumber-gherkin | 27.0.0 | 32.1.1

cucumber-messages | 22.0.0 | 27.2.0

Despite relaxing version constraints in my Gemfile, I’m still unable to complete the upgrade due to dependency resolution conflicts.

Could you please advise if:

• These versions are intended to work together?

• Any major breaking changes or known upgrade paths are documented?

• There are any specific steps or compatibility notes I should follow?

✨ What's your proposed solution?

So once cucumber v10 is released you'll be able to directly see all gems updated. For now these aren't designed to work together.

Cucumber v10 will also see a cleaner upgrade path whereby cucumber core will control most of the restrictions. But in essence the gems are reasonably tightly coupled, so you're not meant to upgrade them outside of the constraints that are specified.

See #1782 for a PR that relaxes most of the constraints
