How run cucumber using jar?

Question

I have a project with cucumber and maven. I can run and build my project successfully from Intellij IDEA. And I can run project from the command line using: mvn clean test -Dcucumber.options="src/test/resources/features --tags @TEST2"

Now I need to this project from the command line in another machine that does not have IDEA or cucumber installed. I have an idea that I need to create a jar-file and run exactly it from command line.

CucumberTest.java itself:

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
        monochrome = true,
        glue = {"ru.ab.cd.stepDefs", "ru.abcd.tag.stepdefs"},
        features = {"src/test/resources/features/"},
        tags = {"@TEST1"},
        plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber-html-report"}
)

public class CucumberTest {
}

TestRunner.java, that runs CucumberTest.java. I made this class specifically for being able to run from the command line. I wanted to pass the value for arguments from the command line. But I still don't understand what values should be passed and try to find out by passing testArguments.

public class TestRunner{

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        String[] testArguments = {"/BitBucketProjects/abc/src/test/resources/features/smoke/TEST2.feature"};
        cucumber.api.cli.Main.main(testArguments);
    }
}

Result when I run TestRunner.java. The test itself did not start. All steps are defined, if I run the same test through the CucumberTest.java, everything is successful.

UUUUUUU

You can implement missing steps with the snippets below:

@Допустим("^пользователь переходит на страницу авторизации$")
public void пользователь_переходит_на_страницу_авторизации() {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

@Допустим("^пользователь находится на странице \"([^\"]*)\"$")
public void пользователь_находится_на_странице(String arg1) {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

@Допустим("^пользователь загружает тестовые данные из json-файла$")
public void пользователь_загружает_тестовые_данные_из_json_файла() {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

@Допустим("^пользователь авторизуется с ролью \"([^\"]*)\"$")
public void пользователь_авторизуется_с_ролью(String arg1) {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

@Допустим("^ПРОВЕРКА\\. Ссылка \"([^\"]*)\" отображается на текущей странице$")
public void проверка_Ссылка_отображается_на_текущей_странице(String arg1) {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

@Допустим("^ПРОВЕРКА\\. Таблица \"([^\"]*)\" отображается на текущей странице$")
public void проверка_Таблица_отображается_на_текущей_странице(String arg1) {
    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
    throw new PendingException();
}

Help!

1. What parameters should I pass to A in order for the test to run?
2. I need to use tags as parameters. How to do it?

The error said that cucumber does not see classes with step definition. Changed the class and the error disappeared

public class RunnerTest {
    private static String[] defaultOptions = {
            "--glue", "ru.ab.cd.stepDefs",
            "--glue", "ru.abcd.tag.stepdefs",
            "--tags", "@TEST2",
            "src/test/resources/features/"
    };

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        Stream<String> cucumberOptions = Stream.concat(Stream.of(defaultOptions), Stream.of(args));
        cucumber.api.cli.Main.main(cucumberOptions.toArray(String[]::new));
    }
}

• "--glue" - a package that contains classes with the implementation of steps and hooks

• "--tags" - a filter for running tests by tags. This line can be deleted and the value passed through the console: --tags @TEST2

• "src/test/resources/features/" - the last line that has no prefix like "--keyword" - is the path to the folder with .feature files. The framework will search for files in this and in all child folders.
