How to use Cluecumber to generate reports?

Question

How to generate reports for automation tests using Cluecumber?

Answer 1

1. Add the Cluecumber plugin to your pom file. As of the time of this writing the most recent version is 2.3.4 but this can be checked here for updates.

   <plugin>
       <groupId>com.trivago.rta</groupId>
           <artifactId>cluecumber-report-plugin</artifactId>
           <version>2.3.4</version>
           <executions>
               <execution>
                   <id>report</id>
                   <phase>post-integration-test</phase>
                   <goals>
                       <goal>reporting</goal>
                   </goals>
               </execution>
           </executions>
         <configuration>
               <sourceJsonReportDirectory>${project.build.directory}/cucumber-report</sourceJsonReportDirectory>
               <generatedHtmlReportDirectory>${project.build.directory}/generated-report
               </generatedHtmlReportDirectory>
         </configuration>
     </plugin>
   

2. Add json:target/cucumber-report/cucumber.json to your Runner, so you would have something like this:

   import io.cucumber.junit.CucumberOptions;
   import io.cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
   import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
   
   @RunWith(Cucumber.class)
   @CucumberOptions(
       features = {"."},
       glue = {"my_folder.steps", "my_folder.hooks"},
       monochrome = true,
       plugin = {"json:target/cucumber-report/cucumber.json"}
   )
   
   public class MainRunner {
   
   }
   

PS: No need for html target

3. Run your tests and once this is done navigate to the terminal and type mvn cluecumber-report:reporting (exactly as it is).

This will generate a folder that only appears when this command is run. It'll be under target folder and will be called generated-report. There you should find the index.html file where your reports should be (right click and open it on a browser to see it).
