I am trying to set up a simple Cucumber project to run with Selenium (The Selenium bits are irrelevant so I removed them). The structure is as follows:
├── main
│ └── ...
└── test
│ └── java
│ └── automated
│ └── sayHiTest.feature
│ └── SayHiTestStepdefs.java
│ └── testRunner.java
sayHiTest.feature:
Feature: Can I say hello?
Scenario: Say Hello
Given I visit "https://google.com"
Then I enter "Hello World"
Then I should get "Google"
testRunner.java:
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
features = "src/test/java/automated/sayHiTest.feature",
glue = {"automated.SayHiTestStepdefs"}
)
public class testRunner { }
SayHiTestStepsdefs.java:
public class SayHiTestStepdefs {
// @Before methods to set up Selenium driver.
@Given("I visit {string}")
public void i_visit(String string) {
driver.get(string);
}
// more @Then methods to assert "Google".
}
Trying to run testRunner
yields the following error:
io.cucumber.junit.UndefinedStepException: The step "I visit "https://google.com"" is undefined.
For some reason, it doesn't see automated.SayHiTestStepdefs
(It prints the same error if I changed its name to say, abc.SayHiTestStepdefs
). I installed a cucumber extension for IntelliJ and it detects that it's properly bound to the i_visit
method, seen below:
I followed the @CucumberOptions section in the docs, I also checked other examples and the syntax seems to check out. Am I missing something?

Cheers.
As stated in the Cucumber docs:
glue
should be a comma separated list of package names.
The provided value was a class name that is part of the automated
package. The following code should work:
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
features = "src/test/java/automated/sayHiTest.feature",
glue = {"automated"}
)
Cucumber searches all classes in the provided packages for step methods, this way any class placed in the automated
package will do.
