Solution

  • Errors about missing methods, or methods not being allowed where they are are typically caused by a mismatch of dependencies. So if you look at your pom you'll see that you are using different versions of Cucumber. Additionally you are including transitive dependencies that you do not strictly need.

    From io.cucumber you should only need cucumber-java and cucumber-junit or cucumber-testng. All other dependencies are transitive and will be included with the right version automatically by maven.

    I would also suggest trying to get either junit or testng to work. Trying to make both work at the same time just makes it more complicated for you.
