NoClassDefFoundError: com/aventstack/extentreports/reporter/ExtentHtmlReporter

I am trying to obtain a report in my maven project using Cucumber, and ExtentReport. I am using java 8. Here are my dependencies:

<dependencies>
    <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.seleniumhq.selenium/selenium-java -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
        <artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
        <version>3.4.0</version>
    </dependency>

    <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/info.cukes/cucumber-java -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
        <artifactId>cucumber-java</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.5</version>
    </dependency>

    <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/info.cukes/cucumber-junit -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>info.cukes</groupId>
        <artifactId>cucumber-junit</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.5</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>


    <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.vimalselvam/cucumber-extentsreport -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.vimalselvam</groupId>
        <artifactId>cucumber-extentsreport</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.1</version>
    </dependency>


</dependencies>

and then i used the below runner class, to run all my *.feature files:

import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
        features            = {"src/test/resources/features" }, 
        monochrome          = true,
        plugin              = {"com.vimalselvam.cucumber.listener.ExtentCucumberFormatter:output/report.html"},
        glue                = {"stepDefinitions"}
        )
public class TestRunnerJUnit {


}

But when i run the test-Runner, it complains with:

cucumber.runtime.CucumberException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/aventstack/extentreports/reporter/ExtentHtmlReporter

Update:

When i add the below dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.aventstack</groupId>
    <artifactId>extentreports</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.1</version>
</dependency>

I receive this new error:

Solution

  • I got the answer. Everything was fine, but i needed to added a value to Feature in the *.feature file. So, here you can see the Feature key word should exist, and exactly in front of it should be a text. If you write the text in next line, you will face with the error.

    Feature: Check Welcome-message
  As a user, I should find a welcome-message in my mailbox, and my age in my profile.
