I am using the Java implementation of Selenium WebDriver (version 2.53.0) to run some automated tests against a web application. The tests are written in Behaviour Driven Testing format using the Java implementation of Cucumber (version 1.2.3). I use Maven (version 3.3.9) to import all my dependencies and also to build and run the tests. The tests are organised into different categories using Cucumber tags. For example, I can run one category of tests tagged with @JohnnyBravo from the command line using the following commands:
cd path_to_Maven_POM_file
mvn clean test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @JohnnyBravo"
After doing some research, I found out that you can use the Maven SureFire plugin to rerun failed tests by adding "-Dsurefire.rerunFailingTestsCount=2" to the Maven command above according to this link. I then tried to rerun that category of tests using the command below while ensuring that some of them will definitely fail so as to see if they will be rerun or not:
mvn clean test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @JohnnyBravo" -Dsurefire.rerunFailingTestsCount=2
Unfortunately, the failed tests did not rerun. What am I doing wrong here ?

}
cleanin your maven command. That will probably remove the run results to rerun from. Can you try without clean, e.g.mvn test ...? – Careenmvn test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @JohnnyBravo"but the failed test did not rerun. – Niacin
