Prerequisites: Cucumber Again. From Requirements to Java Test
To create any simple Cucumber+Java test, we will need to create a glue file, that is pretty simple to do, because, if you don’t need all vhistles and blows on your first step – this will be enough:
package com.cucumber.StepDefinitions;
import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
features="src/test/resources/feature",
glue = "com.cucumber.StepDefinitions"
)
public class CukesRunner {
}
My favorite report engine is ExtentReports, so, let’s add a proper class:
package com.framework.common;
import com.relevantcodes.extentreports.ExtentReports;
import com.relevantcodes.extentreports.ExtentTest;
import com.relevantcodes.extentreports.LogStatus;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterSuite;
public class ExtentReport {
public static ExtentReports extentReports;
protected static ExtentTest extentTest;
public static ExtentReports getExtentReport() {
if (extentReports == null){
extentReports = new ExtentReports(System.getProperty("user.dir") +"/ExtentReport/index.html", true);
}
return extentReports;
}
public static ExtentTest getExtentTest(String testName) {
if (extentReports == null) {
getExtentReport();
};
if (extentTest == null){
extentTest = extentReports.startTest(testName);
extentTest.log(LogStatus.INFO, testName + " configureation started");
}
return extentTest;
}
@AfterSuite
public void endSuite(){
ExtentReport.getExtentReport().close();
}
}
and implementation is extremely simple:
ExtentReport.getExtentTest(getClass().getSimpleName()).log(LogStatus.INFO, "Run test for " + className);
This is how it looks like:
After that I tried to research if there are any ready to go plugins or examples about how to make reports in Gherkin-like format. I easily found one, but that was working with no problems only with Eclipse. Here is an example – (https://automationissues.wordpress.com/2017/09/29/cucumber-extent-reporting/):
