Cucumber-Java Skeleton

This is the simplest possible build script setup for Cucumber using Java. There is nothing fancy like a webapp or browser testing. All this does is to show you how to install and run Cucumber!

There is a single feature file with one scenario. The scenario has three steps, two of them pending. See if you can make them all pass!

Get the code

Git:

git clone https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-java-skeleton.git
cd cucumber-java-skeleton

Subversion:

svn checkout https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-java-skeleton/trunk cucumber-java-skeleton
cd cucumber-java-skeleton

Or download a zip file.

Use Maven

Open a command window and run:

cd maven
./mvnw test

This runs Cucumber features using Cucumber's JUnit Platform Engine. The Suite annotation on the RunCucumberTest class tells JUnit to kick off Cucumber.

Use Gradle

Open a command window and run:

cd gradle
./gradlew test --rerun-tasks --info

This runs Cucumber features using Cucumber's JUnit Platform Engine. The Suite annotation on the RunCucumberTest class tells JUnit to kick off Cucumber.

Configuration

The Cucumber JUnit Platform Engine uses configuration parameters to know what features to run, where the glue code lives, what plugins to use, etc. When using JUnit, these configuration parameters are provided through the @ConfigurationParameter annotation on your test.

For available parameters see: io.cucumber.junit.platform.engine.Constants

Run a subset of Features or Scenarios

Specify a particular scenario by line

@SelectClasspathResource(value = "io/cucumber/skeleton/belly.feature", line = 3)

In case you have multiple feature files or scenarios to run against repeat the annotation.

You can also specify what to run by tag:

@IncludeTags("zucchini")

When using Maven, tags can be provided from the CLI using the groups and excludedGroups parameters. These take a JUnit5 Tag Expression. Note: When using JUnit, the @ is not part of the tag.

mvn verify -DexcludedGroups="Haricots" -Dgroups="Zucchini | Gherkin"

Running a single scenario or feature

Maven and Gradle do not (yet) support selecting single features or scenarios with JUnit selectors. As a work around the cucumber.features property can be used. Because this property will cause Cucumber to ignore any other selectors from JUnit it is prudent to only execute the Cucumber engine.

With Maven

To select the scenario on line 3 of the belly.feature file use:

./mvnw test -Dsurefire.includeJUnit5Engines=cucumber -Dcucumber.features=src/test/resources/io/cucumber/skeleton/belly.feature:3 

Note: Add -Dcucumber.plugin=pretty to get a more detailed output during test execution.

With Gradle

TODO: (I don't know how to do this. Feel free to send a pull request. ;))
