This series has been absolutely great. I needed to convert my Python Behave automated tests to Cucumber Java (we're going to do just Java going forward at the agency where I work) and I understand enough to get working and learning further. I will, of course, be doing your series of java classes as well. But this was an immense help and I have advertised your site on my work agency's blog and shared it with my fellow automated test developers. Thanks very very much.

[@anushrikher372]

This is very useful. Thanks for explaining HTML Report. Can you please make a session on how to attach screenshot in cucumber html report for every test steps and how to attach screencast of test cases

[@RaghavPal]

Sure Anushri.. I will plan.. for now here are some steps to help you: ### Attaching Screenshots to Cucumber HTML Report (for Every Test Step) 1. Using Cucumber Hooks (Java): - Cucumber provides hooks that allow you to execute code before or after scenarios, steps, or other events. - 'll use the `@After` hook tcapture screenshots after each step. - Here's an example of how to do this: ```java import io.cucumber.java.After; import io.cucumber.java.Scenario; import org.openqa.selenium.OutputType; import org.openqa.selenium.TakesScreenshot; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; public class MyStepDefinitions { private WebDriver driver; // Initialize your WebDriver instance @After public void captureScreenshot(Scenario scenario) { if (scenario.isFailed()) { byte[] screenshot = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES); scenario.attach(screenshot, "image/png", "Screenshot"); } } } ``` - In this example, if a scenario fails, a screenshot is captured and attached to the report. 2. Configure Your Cucumber Runner: - Make sure your Cucumber runner class (where you specify features and glue code) includes the necessary configation. - For example: ``java import io.cucumber.junit.Cucumber; import io.cucumber.junit.CucumberOptions; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; @RunWith(Cucumber.class) @CucumberOptions( features = "src/test/resources/features", glue = "path.to.step.definitions", plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-reports"} ) public class TestRunner { // Your runner configuration } ``` - The `html:target/cucumber-reports` option generates the HTML report. ### Including Screencasts in Cucumber Reports 1. Screencast Videos: - Embedding screencast videos directly into Cucumber reports is not a built-in feature. - However, you can provide linkso external video sting platforms (e.g., KZbin, Vimeo) in your report. - In your step definitions, capture the video URL (if available) and include it in the report. 2. Custom Reporting: - Consider using custom reporting tools or frameworks that allow more flexibility. - For example, Extent Reports or AllurReports provide tter support for attaching various types of media (including videos). Remember to adapt the code snippets above to your specific project structure and WebDriver setup Happy testing

[@madhumitapatil7200]

Very detail and useful videos. I have oe question if I am using Cucumber and Selenium for UI testing which one would be the best automation tool for API/Backend testing?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Madhumita When it comes to API/Backend testing, there are several automation tools available that can be used effectively in conjunction with Cucumber and Selenium. The choice of tool depends on various factors such as your project requirements, the programming language you are comfortable with, and the specific features and functionalities you need Here are a few popular automation tools for API/Backend testing: 1. Postman: Postman is a widely used tool for API testing. It provides a user-friendly interface to send requests, validate responses, and perform various tests on APIs. Postman supports scripting using JavaScript, making it flexible for complex testing scenarios. It also offers features like environment variables, data-driven testing, and easy collaboration 2. Rest-Assured: Rest-Assured is a Java library specifically designed for API testing. It provides a simple and intuitive syntax for writing API tests in Java. Rest-Assured integrates well with popular testing frameworks like JUnit and TestNG, and it supports various authentication methods, request/response validation, and data-driven testing 3. Karate: Karate is an open-source API testing framework that combines API testing, mock server capabilities, and API documentation in a single tool. Karate uses a BDD syntax, making it easy to write and read tests. It supports JSON and XML request/response handling, data-driven testing, parallel execution, and various authentication methods 4. WireMock: WireMock is a library for stubbing and mocking HTTP-based services. It allows you to create mock servers and define custom responses for API calls. WireMock is useful when you need to simulate API responses in specific scenarios or test integrations with external services that might not be available during testing These are just a few examples, and there are many other API testing tools available in the market. It's important to evaluate each tool based on your specific requirements, such as ease of use, integration with existing frameworks, support for data-driven testing, reporting capabilities, and community support Ultimately, the best automation tool for API/Backend testing depends on your project's needs, your team's expertise, and the level of integration you require with your existing Cucumber and Selenium framework

[@monikagupta3860]

Hi @Raghav, Thank you so much for informative session. I have one doubt in reporting side, here you are passing plugin for .json and how come u are able to open in .html format. I was replicating in my machine it has only one file. i.e. .json report

[@RaghavPal]

Monika I am using a tool called Allure Report: qameta.io/allure-report/. It is a reporting tool that can be used with Selenium Java and Eclipse IDE. Allure Report can generate reports in a variety of formats, including HTML, JSON, and XML. To generate an HTML report from a JSON report, you can use the following command: ``` allure generate allure-results --clean -o allure-report ``` This command will generate an HTML report in the `allure-report` directory. The `--clean` option will clear the `allure-report` directory before generating the new report. This is useful if you want to make sure that the new report is up-to-date. You can then open the `allure-report/index.html` file in your web browser to view the report. If you are using Eclipse IDE, you can also use the Allure Report plugin to generate reports. To install the Allure Report plugin, go to **Help** > **Install New Software** and enter the following URL in the **Work with** field: ``` plugins.qameta.io/allurereport/update/ ``` Once the plugin is installed, you can generate a report by right-clicking on the test class or test suite that you want to generate a report for and selecting **Allure** > **Generate Report**. The Allure Report plugin will generate an HTML report in the `allure-results` directory. You can then open the `allure-report/index.html` file in your web browser to view the report. I hope this helps

Hello Raghav, Thank you so much for this tutorial. Could you please also add a cucumber report (html) screenshots for failed/passed/every step example on this playlist

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Kiran I will add on that

[@SourabhSingh-zx1fh]

My cucumber-report-html folder in target folder is coming as blank when I'm running the feature file not from cmd.

[@RaghavPal]

Sourabh 1. Verify Cucumber reporting plugin configuration: Open your pom.xml file and ensure the Cucumber HTML reporting plugin is included in your dependencies. Look for plugins with names like cucumber-junit or cucumber-jvm-deps. Check if the plugin configuration specifies an output directory for the report. This should typically be defined in the section within the plugin configuration. 2. Confirm Eclipse Run/Debug configuration: In Eclipse, open the "Run/Debug Configurations" window. Select the configuration you're using to run your tests outside the command line. Check if the configuration includes appropriate arguments for Cucumber reporting. This might involve flags like --plugin html:target/cucumber-reports or --publish.

[@UCIUbaf3b8lN7Q5GA8qO]

Hi Raghav, I was wondering if we could implement a screenshot on failure to the html-reports in Cucumber, do we still need extent-report? Also one more question I have for you: would you recommend to create the Methods of test steps like public bool testMethod() { try test steps true catch false} and when we call the methods in the TestPage we would call it by asserting that the method testMethod is true.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi, 1. Cucumber supports the ability to take screenshots on failure out-of-the-box. You can do this by using the @After hook in the StepDefinition class and using the TakesScreenshot interface provided by Selenium E.g. @After public void tearDown(Scenario scenario) { if (scenario.isFailed()) { final byte[] screenshot = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES); scenario.embed(screenshot, "image/png"); } driver.quit(); } 2. Creating methods for test steps and asserting their return value is a good practice, it can help you to keep your test code organized and maintainable The try-catch block is not necessary. Instead, you can use the assertTrue() method or similar methods from the org.junit.Assert class to check the return value of the test method e.g. public boolean testMethod() { //test steps return true; } public void testPageMethod() { assertTrue(testMethod()); } It's also important to note that the best practices for implementing a test framework are highly dependent on the specific requirements of the project and the team It's always good to have a clear understanding of the project requirements

[@UCIUbaf3b8lN7Q5GA8qO]

@@RaghavPal thank you so much for the fast reply and for enlightening me, I will try to add the screenshots at the time when test fails, also I cannot use itestliseners because Im using Junit. Thanks a lot Raghav, you are the person whom people should learn from your character.

[@UCIUbaf3b8lN7Q5GA8qO]

@@RaghavPal I want to make a correction, this is not your fault, it's because you are using a different version, the correct statements to attach screenshot is this way on newer version for cucumber, people might have trouble implementing it in theyr framework: @After public void tearDown(Scenario scenario) { if (scenario.isFailed()) { final byte[] screenshot = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES); scenario.attach(screenshot, "image/png", "failingScreenshot"); } driver.quit(); } // things changed instead of embed you will have to change it with attach.

Hi Judith To receive emails during the testing of email verification for a new registration process or password reset process, you can use JavaMail API in your Selenium Java Cucumber framework. Here are the high-level steps to set up email verification in your framework: Add JavaMail API dependency to your project: You can add the JavaMail API dependency to your project using your build management tool such as Maven or Gradle. For example, in Maven, you can add the following dependency to your pom.xml file: com.sun.mail javax.mail 1.6.2 Create a Java class to receive emails: You can create a Java class that will connect to the email server using JavaMail API and retrieve the verification link or code from the email. You can use the following code to get the verification link from the email: Properties props = new Properties(); props.setProperty("mail.store.protocol", "imaps"); Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null); Store store = session.getStore(); store.connect("imap.gmail.com", "your_email", "your_password"); Folder inbox = store.getFolder("inbox"); inbox.open(Folder.READ_ONLY); Message[] messages = inbox.getMessages(); for (int i = messages.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) { Message message = messages[i]; String subject = message.getSubject(); if (subject.equals("Registration Verification")) { String body = message.getContent().toString(); Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("(?

Thank you for this tutorial Raghav. It has really helped me a lot. I had a question. I don't want to run "mvn -DskipTests" manually by opening the command prompt. So for that I created a Command line executor using Runtime.exec() Java function. I placed the command line function in my @AfterAll Cucumber tag. It runs the "mvn -DskipTests" after the execution but the generated report is empty. Any workaround for this?

[@shahanam687]

Can add more metrix on this cucumber report? (For eg:project, number , date)

[@RaghavPal]

Yes, you can add additional metrics or custom information to your Cucumber reports in Selenium Java Cucumber. Cucumber provides hooks and plugins that allow you to customize and enhance the generated reports. To add custom metrics or information to your Cucumber reports, you can follow these steps: 1. Create a new Cucumber plugin: Implement a custom Cucumber plugin by creating a class that implements the `cucumber.api.Plugin` interface. This plugin will define the behavior for adding custom information to the reports. ```java import cucumber.api.Plugin; import cucumber.api.Result; import cucumber.api.event.*; import cucumber.api.formatter.Formatter; public class CustomCucumberPlugin implements Plugin, Formatter { // Implement the necessary methods // You can override methods like `setEventPublisher`, `uri`, `feature`, `scenario`, `result`, etc. // These methods allow you to capture various events during the execution and customize the report accordingly // For example, you can extract the project name, number, or date from environment variables or configuration files // and include them in the report. } ``` 2. Register the plugin: Register your custom plugin by adding it to the Cucumber options in the `@CucumberOptions` annotation in your test runner class. ```java import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions; import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; @RunWith(Cucumber.class) @CucumberOptions( // Add other options as needed plugin = {"path.to.CustomCucumberPlugin"} ) public class TestRunner { // Your test runner code } ``` 3. Customize the report output: In your custom plugin implementation, you can use the provided methods to capture relevant events during the test execution (e.g., `feature`, `scenario`, `result`, etc.). Extract the desired metrics or information and format them according to your requirements. ```java import cucumber.api.Result; import cucumber.api.event.*; public class CustomCucumberPlugin implements Plugin, Formatter { // ... @Override public void result(Result result) { // Customize the report output based on the test result // Extract additional metrics or information and include them in the report // You can use the provided methods and event data to access relevant information // and format it as needed } // ... } ``` By implementing these steps, you can extend the functionality of the Cucumber reports and include additional metrics or custom information in the generated reports based on your specific requirements. Note: The above code snippets provide a general outline of the approach. You may need to adapt the code to your specific project structure and requirements

I am creating a project from scratch.I had just followed your steps to generate reports.But while running 'maven test' I could see Test runs : 0 It is not considering my test cases at all.Please help

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Vaishnavi Here are some possible reasons why your Cucumber test cases are not being considered when you run `maven test`: * You may have a typo in your feature file or step definition. * You may not have installed all of the required dependencies. * You may not have configured your project correctly. To troubleshoot this, you can try the following: * Check your feature file and step definition for typos. * Run `maven dependency:tree` to see if all of the required dependencies are installed. * Check your project configuration to make sure that it is correct I hope this helps

Hi Raghav, thanks for the video. For me the cucumber.json is getting created but the cucumber-report-html is not getting created also tried options from the reference link you have given. If you can highlight anything i have missed.

[@RaghavPal]

Tejpal If your `cucumber.json` file is being generated but the `cucumber-report-html` is not, let's troubleshoot the issue. Here are some steps to check and potential solutions: 1. Check Pom.xml Configuration: - Ensure that you have correctly added the `maven-cucumber-reporting` plugin in your `pom.xml`. - Verify that the plugin configuration includes the correct paths for input (`cucumber.json`) and output (`cucumber-report-html`). 2. Runner Class Configuration: - In your Cucumber runner class (usually named `TestRunner`), make sure you have specified the plugin for HTML reports. - Example: ```java @RunWith(Cucumber.class) @CucumberOptions( features = "src/test/resources/features", glue = {"stepDefinitions"}, plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-reports"} ) public class TestRunner { // Your runner class code } ``` 3. Verify Execution Goals: - Run the following Maven goals to generate the reports: - `mvn clean test` (to generate the Cucumber report file `cucumber.json`) - `mvn verify -DskipTests` (to generate the `cucumber-report-html` based on `cucumber.json`) 4. Check File Paths: - Verify that the paths specified in the plugin configuration match the actual locations of your files. - Ensure that the `cucumber.json` file is being generated in the expected location. 5. Project Structure: - Confirm that your project structure adheres to the standard Cucumber directory structure: ``` src └── test └── java └── stepDefinitions └── resources └── features ``` 6. Maven Dependencies: - Ensure that your project's dependencies (Cucumber, JUnit, etc.) are correctly defined in your `pom.xml`. 7. Clean and Rebuild: - Sometimes, cleaning the project (`mvn clean`) and rebuilding it can resolve issues related to generated reports. 8. Check Console Output: - When running your tests, check the console output for any error messages related to report generation. - Look for any warnings or exceptions that might provide clues. 9. Plugin Version Compatibility: - Verify that the versions of your Cucumber dependencies and the `maven-cucumber-reporting` plugin are compatible. 10. GitHub Reference: - If you're still facing issues, consider referring to the GitHub repository for `maven-cucumber-reporting` for any known issues or updates. Remember to adapt these steps to your specific project setup..
