How to mark a feature file with @manualTesting such that scenarios inside it are never run

I have a case for a feature file where we have to test emails and we can't. So we decided to mark the whole feature file as @manualTesting so that people know that it has to be manually tested.

I know how to create an annotation to be executed before or after but is there a way that when we mark some feature file with @manualTesting it never gets executed.

Note:- I don't want to add any @excluded or @disabled annotation.

Solution

  • You could use the "tags" attribute of the CucumberOptions annotation to exclude that tag from being executed:

    @CucumberOptions(..., tags = {"not @manualTesting", ...},...)
