What version are you using?

Can you prepare a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example in a git repo please?

[Jeredriq]

Well, bad for me I cant reach git repo from my work place.

But I assure you all I did was just download this https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-java-skeleton/ in zip file and open it and tried running tests

[aslakhellesoy]

Please disregard my last comment. Can you tell us what OS you’re on and what Java version you’re using?

[Jeredriq]

Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1 and Java 1.8.0_121

[onurozcelik]

Change your OS language to English and try again.

[Jeredriq]

It works perfectly, thanks @onurozcelik

[aslakhellesoy]

I'm reopening this - there should be a better error message.

[mpkorstanje]

I can't make sense of the error.

java.lang.NullPointerException: No format for key undefıned
at cucumber.runtime.formatter.AnsiFormats.get(AnsiFormats.java:51)

It's right there!

private static final Map<String, Format> formats = new HashMap<String, Format>() {{
        put("undefined", new ColorFormat(AnsiEscapes.YELLOW));
        ....
}};

Much less of how the OS language influences this.

[mpkorstanje]

Ah found it. It's in PrettyFormatter

        String formattedStepText = formatStepText(keyword, stepText, formats.get(result.getStatus().lowerCaseN11ame()), formats.get(result.getStatus().lowerCaseName() + "_arg"), testStep.getDefinitionArgument());

Which calls Result:

        public String lowerCaseName() {
            return name().toLowerCase();
        }

Which calls String

public String toLowerCase() {
        return toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault());
    }

Which uses a Locale which notes:

     * Converts all of the characters in this {@code String} to lower
     * case using the rules of the default locale. This is equivalent to calling
     * {@code toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault())}.
     * <p>
     * <b>Note:</b> This method is locale sensitive, and may produce unexpected
     * results if used for strings that are intended to be interpreted locale
     * independently.
     * Examples are programming language identifiers, protocol keys, and HTML
     * tags.
     * For instance, {@code "TITLE".toLowerCase()} in a Turkish locale
     * returns {@code "t\u005Cu0131tle"}, where '\u005Cu0131' is the
     * LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I character.
     * To obtain correct results for locale insensitive strings, use
     * {@code toLowerCase(Locale.ROOT)}.
     * <p>

Nice one @mpkorstanje!
