unable to generate allure report for protractor cucumber

Question

I'm trying to generate allure report for protractor cucumber but it is not generating any report.

conf.js is as below

exports.config = {
    directConnect: true,

    capabilities: {
        browserName: 'chrome',
    },

    framework: 'custom',
    frameworkPath: require.resolve('protractor-cucumber-framework'),

    specs: [
        'sample.feature'
    ],

    restartBrowserBetweenTests: true,

    cucumberOpts: {
        require:[
            'sampleStep.js', 
            'reporter.js'
        ],
    },

    onPrepare: function () {
        browser.manage().window().maximize();
    },
};

and the reporter.js file is

var reporter = require('cucumberjs-allure-reporter');

reporter.config(
   //targetDir:'./allure-results/'
   { targetDir : './Reports'}
);
module.exports = reporter;

Answer 1

The cucumberjs-allure-reporter library doesn't support higher Cucumber (I can't remember the exact version, maybe only supports Cucumber 2 and lower).

You can try this new library, cucumberjs-allure2-reporter, which is compatible with Cucumber.JS 3+ and Allure 2+.
