Run jbehave stories from a user defined location

I am new to jbehave

I am trying to execute jbehave through junit. It seems jbehave loads story files only from the classpath. Will it be possible to configure it to fetch story files from a user defined path.

public class AlgebraStory extends JUnitStories {  

@Override  
public Configuration configuration() {  
 return super.configuration()  
     .useStoryReporterBuilder(  
         new StoryReporterBuilder()  
             .withDefaultFormats()  
             .withFormats(CONSOLE, TXT));  
}  

@Override  
public InjectableStepsFactory stepsFactory() {  
  return new InstanceStepsFactory(configuration(), new Calculator());  
}  

@Override  
protected List<String> storyPaths() {  
  return new  StoryFinder().findPaths((<user defined path>, "**/algebra_story.story", "");  
  }  
}

In the same way will it be possible to save jbehave reports in user defined path.

Solution

  • Yes, you can locate your stories anywhere you want in the network. be them in class path, or externally, locatable via URLs. see locating stories.

    And I recommend you to learn JBehave through its examples. as this one. But in my own opinion the best way to setup an execution is using Embedders.
