It is easy to use cucumber with PHP, even managing the database.

Problem

Is it possible to use Cucumber outside Rails? I'd like to start using it for testing some of my PHP applications, but I really don't know how to start. Probably the easiest way would be creating a Rails project only to run Cucumber features, but that seems like to me as overkill. What is the simplest way to set up Cucumber for testing a non-Rails application?
