cucumber-java and cucumber-junit after version 1.0.14 does not work

Question

I am using Cucumber-JVM and Selenium WebDriver together. I have a Maven project in eclipse and dependency of pom.xml file is as below:

<dependency>
    <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
    <artifactId>cucumber-java</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.2</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
    <artifactId>cucumber-junit</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.2</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

The content of RunCukesTest.java file is:

import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@Cucumber.Options(format = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-htmlreport","json-pretty:target/cucumber-report.json"})
public class RunCukesTest {
}

I am getting the error in the following lines of code:

import cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@Cucumber.Options(format = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-htmlreport","json-pretty:target/cucumber-report.json"})

But when I used the version 1.0.14 it works well. What's the wrong with the latest version?

what error message do you have? – Tate

The import cucumber.junit cannot be resolved for "import cucumber.junit.Cucumber;" and Multiple markers at this line - Cucumber cannot be resolved to a type - Class<Cucumber> cannot be resolved for next 2 lines of code – Gorga

Answer 1

@Cucumber.Options is deprecated use @CucumberOptions instead

@CucumberOptions(
    format = "pretty",
    features = "//refer to Feature file"  
)

Hope this helps you

Answer 2

The annotation has changed to @CucumberOptions:

And I think json-pretty has changed to json in this cucumber version.

This should work:

@CucumberOptions(
      format = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-htmlreport","json:target/cucumber-report.json"}
)

Moreover, according to cucumber-jvm specifications format is deprecated. You should replace by plugin. This also should work:

plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-htmlreport","json:target/cucumber-report.json"}

Hope it helps

with cucumber 1.2.2

<cucumber.version>1.2.2</cucumber.version>
....
    <dependency>
        <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
        <artifactId>cucumber-java</artifactId>
        <version>${cucumber.version}</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
        <artifactId>cucumber-junit</artifactId>
        <version>${cucumber.version}</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
....

here a sample working test:

import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(features = "classpath:features/myfeature.feature", tags = "@Mytag", plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber"})
public class MYAcceptanceTest {

}

note the import is cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber instead of cucumber.junit.Cucumber and you need to add the import for the cucumber options. The stereotype for the option is @CucumberOptions instead of @Cucumber.Options

Answer 4

replace @Cucumber.Options with @CucumberOptions and format with plugin

@CucumberOptions(plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-htmlreport","json-pretty:target/cucumber-report.json"})
public class RunCukesTest {
}

Answer 5

You can try putting both RunCukesTest.java file and your Feature file in same folder or package.

Cucumber version is now updated to version 2.0.1. Replace

<groupId>info.cukes</groupId>

with

<groupId>io.cucumber</groupId>
